GAYA SA PELIKULA
Beautifully and properly done PH BL Series I've ever seen.
Of course, it is very relatable and my connection to the series is stronger than all the other BL Series I've seen before because it's proudly Filipino made. The culture and language is their and it's definitely a huge factor. But honestly, more than that, it is really well-made. I wasn't really expecting much from it and I honestly thought it's gonna be awkward and cringey but the actors did their roles sooo well. 💯
The story didn't have much character or actors in it. There's only 8 actors (Vlad, Karl, Ate Judit, Anna, Tito Sants, Sue, Karl's Mom & Dad) which we see play their respective characters on screen and 2 characters which we're portrayed behind the scenes (Vlad's mom & ex). Another thing was that the series was only composed of 8 episodes with running time of less than 30mins each. At first, I wondered about how they're gonna properly portray such story and build conflicts and character development with a very limited span of time. But they proved it and made it so aesthetically beautiful. A masterpiece.
As a Filipino and as a BL fan, I've seen lots of other series from other countries. And I've always wished for a PH BL to happen. I know there are other PH BL Series that was aired first like My Husband's Lover but I haven't seen that one yet or any other PH BL series before. Gaya sa Pelikula is my first and I have to say, I am quite pleased and it defnitely exceeded my expectation. I'd say, it's something to be proud of. I know it's BL and not everyone's comfortable with that genre. But if the only reason you're not watching it is because it's BL, then you're definitely missing out. It's not even an overstatement when I say, "Gaya Sa Pelikula is one of the best produced PH Series ever". To my fellow Pinoy BL Fans out there, especially to my followers, if you haven't seen Gaya sa Pelikula yet, you gotta see it. It's a must watch. And to my foreign BL fan followers or if you're just coming across this post, I encourage you to watch it. It's 💯 chef's kiss.
Juan Miguel Severo's really a master storyteller of his generation. I've always been at awe by his brilliance ever since I knew about him. He's able to touch on the very significant aspects of BL genre. Each episode was so poetic. The end quotes on each episode was so beautiful. The script was so well written. And the actors aren't your mainstream idols, but they're very effective and honestly, they are such great actors. The series was a low cost production with high quality product results.
Gaya Sa Pelikula is honestly a revolution in the PH filmmaking scene and maybe even in the TV series scene. As I could remember, BL in the Philippines is mostly portrayed in the sexy indie movies. They focus so much on the sexual part of it and forget or even ignore to portray the more significant part of being in the LGBT+ community. And I actually didn't like that. Or maybe it's just the frustration of not seeing a healthy relationship being portrayed in a BL Series especially in the Philippines without it being sexualized.
That's why the society is still not that quite receptive of the community. It's true, Philippines is becoming open than ever it was before and compared to other countries. We're open about it but the reservation is still there. The law and the church is still navigating on this matter. It's still an ongoing fight. What I'm saying is, the media also plays a huge role in this battle.
Karl's dilemma is valid the same way as Vlad's. Karl just realized about his gender, his preference, his identity. He's just discovered something essebtial about himself and it isn't something so easy to accept and tell the whole wide world. He's still navigating through everything. Even for Vlad or even Tito Sants who has known about their identity a looong time ago is still navigating their way in this harsh reality. If there's any character in the series which I could say I was able to relate to, I'd say it's Judit and Anna. I can relate on Judit being a sister
and Anna as a true supportive friend.
We're both a Scorpio, btw Honestly, I'm glad that Vlad & Karl has Anna, a common friend who knows about the truth of the special thing they have.
Okay, I'm just gonna leave it here. I don't wanna spoil you guys so go and watch it. But before that, I'm leaving this here:
