The Mistress

Today since its my off from work after two weeks of working straight and not taking my rest day by choice.  I decided to chill and unwind together with my college friend Babylyn Delacruz. It's been a very stressful weeks that passed in all aspects my life whether it is in work or personal. Don't get me wrong though! I am not wining or whatever in fact I appreciate the busyness, the pressures and things in between but sometimes whether we admit it or not it is really getting the best of us. So relaxing is something a relief of getting away for just a moment in all those things that make our weekdays a roller coaster ride. So here I am! I welcome the chance to unwind and chill out and as some of my friends says "Hindi naman masama mag pahinga"  My friend and I planned to watch the new Bea Alozo and John Lloyd Cruz Movie "The Mistress" at Trinoma but agreed to watched it in SM North EDSA since that our first stop is at SM.

Anyway, The Mistress movie is yet another one of Star Cinema's best movie offering in celebration of the 10th anniversary of John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzon's partnership as a love team in movies and teleserye. The movie is about a different kind of love story, a story that most or maybe some of us can relate to, a complicated love story of two person who crossed path, fall in love and entangled in different in circumstances that changes their lives forever.  its a story a love affair that that teaches two people to love, to forgive and to let go.

Bea played the role of Sari whose secret benefactor is Rico played by veteran actor Ronaldo Valdez the husband of Regina played by veteran actress Hilda Koronel whose son's J.D Torres played by John Lloyd Cruz. The wife, the benefactor, the lover and the Mistress....all four people just loved,  a wife to her husband, a benefactor to his mistress, a Mistress to her lover all four just show different kind love and consume by it and little do they know that same love crushes before there eyes and change their lives for better or for worse....forever.

What I like about the movie is the scene towards the end that makes you thinks How do you like to end it? it gives you a thought that maybe, just maybe despite all that happens they maybe good for each other, despite all the emotional struggles they maybe end up for each other....The movies didn't answer that for us and just let us the viewers decide...after all happily ever after is such a cliche...!

The movie is directed by Olivia Lamasan and supported by veteran actress Anita Linda, Carmi Martin, K Brosas, Tony Mabesa, Gabe Mercado, Minnie Aguilar, Nor Domingo, Clarence Delgado.
