#PauNine fans, you have been blessed. First you've heard our reviews (look up episode 139 if you haven't), now it's time to talk to the two leads of Prime Cruz's latest film, Ngayon Kaya! Carrying the moniker #PauNine , Paulo Avelino and Janine Gutierrez team up for the first time on the big screen (their very first pairing was actually for Dwein Baltazar's Marry Me Marry You on iWant.ph). We talk about many things you haven't heard of about them: which films got their interest in acting, which performances they wished they got for, their "what ifs", their college anthems, and many more. They also joined us in listing down their recently watched films so be sure to listen til the end. P.S. The gift of "not asking" what many of their fans wanted to know lead us to having them reveal something towards the end. Do check out our written review of the film here. Also, here's a link to the song "Pahintulot" originally by Shirebound and Busking. Do tag us in your socials and share this episode with the hashtag #PauNineOnTWCC Notes: This episode contains spoilers for the film. Ngayon Kaya is now showing in cinemas nationwide.

Pasensya na sa delay! After a very busy April for us all here at Third World Cinema Club, it's time we release the third of our WOMEN'S MONTH SPECIAL and without bias we present a film from friends of the pod, Dwein Baltazar but in this time, as seen through the eyes of our female guests Karen and Ica and Cess. As her pick for women's month, Cess has discussed the film with the gang before but in this episode she talks about how the women see what Aileen wants them to see as a fellow woman. Spoilers are definitely present in this episode. A few things to think about that are also present in this podcast: The name/word "Ai leen" has a different meaning in Japanese, as Ica says. Is the film how the female gaze should be made? Sino ba ang hindi na LSS sa Ikaw Pa Rin ni Ted Ito? These three definitely were in full LSS mode. Gusto Kita With All My Hypothalamus is directed by Dwein Baltazar, who has directed several other films such as Oda sa Wala, the series Marry Me, Marry You, and Hello, Stranger: The Movie. We love her so much we just wanted to introduce her to our newly founded girl friends. :) You can still watch the film via the FDCP Channel. You just need to sign up for a membership to gain full access to the film. P.S. This episode was recorded in the last few days of March pero sobrang busy talaga namin. Sorry!
