Speaking of Lav Diaz, I am working again on an interview I did with him last year around the time of the Cinemanila Film Festival.
Right now, I'm transcribing the interview, which was done in Filipino. I have to translate it to English later because I'm sending the interview on spec to an international publication. I hope they will accept it. It will be a big boost to Philippine Cinema. But the transcription process is a bit hard. Interviewed Lav at the Araneta Center's Cafe Bola, just when the Megastar was having a concert, so you can only imagine the din of the diners almost drowning our interview -- can't even hear myself in parts! Perhaps I can ask Lav what I was asking. :) Invite him over. Besides, the article needs updating with what's happening in his longer-than-Batang West Side Ebolusyon. JP can set that up. I still have lots of cans of beer and pasta in the dining room -- left over from my "birthday party." JP said he makes a mean pasta with pesto. Yum! I love pesto. :)
That would be cool. Lav and the rest of us getting drunk in my apartment, while feasting on pasta with pesto!
