We’ve watched “Ang Panday” at Metro Gaisano Legaspi City last December 29, 2009. There are only 2 movies available that are part of the Metro Manila Film Festival so we’ve chosen Senator Bong’s film over Vic Sotto’s “Ang Darling Kong Aswang”. Below is my initial reaction of the movie plus pizza trip at Mexita! Yummy!
