Since Chistmas is coming, here is an idea for your loved ones and friends. Howie’s wee description of his blog describes his work perfectly:
This blog will attempt to find relevance in the exotic and the commonplace, value the undervalued, and satisfy my personal curiosity about all things that have anything to do with being Filipino.
This collection of Howies's documentaries is going to be essential viewing for anyone dissatisfied with depictions of the Philippines in mainstream media, here and abroad. It will be especially valuable for early birds like me who are nearly always snoozing when the TV version goes out.
My only regret is that the DVD does not include "Tondominium deathtrap", which sounds a cracker (don't miss the many interesting comments below the post from residents). Tondominium is available on YouTube but personally I can't sit through a proper documentary in the YouTube format, so let's hope a "more of howie's greatest hits" version follows soon.
Torn, thanks for the plug and kind words. My regret is I couldn't subtitle the docus.
btw, have you heard Jagger's new solo cd? Great stuff.

Hi Howie -- That's a shame, but I have my own in-house translator. I haven't heard the new Jagger album, though I did read something about it -- I'll look out for it!

Hello Mr. Howie Severino! I wanted to watch the full version of your documentary "Multo ng Nakaraan". I was there at the 3rd Annual Media Conference of Journalism and Communication Students of the Philippines held at AFP theatre last August 17, 2008, sadly we weren't able to watch its full version because the time given was limited. I hope to hear from you soon. Please email me if you have time.. keziachretien@yahoo.com thank you and God Bless You!
