I have my clear memories of Fr. Nick Cruz, SJ giving us a two-day Film Appreciation Seminar in the Minor Seminary. Un mga movies na pinapanuod nya sa amin ay hard to find na sa mga video stores. Lalo na yung PAPILLON starring Dustin Hoffman if I am not mistaken. galing ng mga reviews nya. After ilang years, nakaharap ko ulit si Fr. Nick Cruz. This time as my professor sa ADMU Communications Dept. Film Class. He taught us so many things about movies pero the thing I really learned ay how to understand FILM LANGUAGE. With the movies we have today, iilan lang talaga yung may sense. I had hope at first nung #%@&! ang mga Indie Films dahil yung mga unang indie movies at intelligent. pero lately, yung mga indie movies ay naging salamin na lang ng movie na low budgeted. Kahit walang sense, basta makagawa na lang. Basta may cam. May actor. Kahit walang talent. Walang story line. Indie film na. Our seminarians sana ay maorient ulit sa Film Appreciation dahil isa ito sa mga influential means of communications today. Very powerful ang language ng Film. It can be of great help din sa ministry as priests.
