Christopher inisnab sa 1st MIFF sa pagka-best actor, producer umalma
NASA gitna ng kontrobersya ngayon ang mga organizers ng Manila International Film Festival (MIFF) dahil sa pang-iisnab kay Christopher de Leon.
Nalaglag kasi ang award-winning veteran star sa listahan ng mga nominado sa Best Actor category para sa kanilang entry na “When I Met You In Tokyo.”
Halos lahat ng um-attend sa awards night ng MIFF na ginanap last Friday, February 2 sa Directors Guild of America (DGA), Los Angeles, California at takang-taka kung bakit hindi napasama sa mga nominado si Christopher.
Baka Bet Mo: Ruffa sa ‘kakambal’ na kontrobersya: Kung hindi ka na pinag-uusapan magtaka ka na, ibig sabihin laos ka na
Kaya naman pinagpapaliwanag ng ilang taga-showbiz industry ang mga hurado sa kauna-unahang MIFF na kinabibilangan nina Marie Jamora, Mari Acevedo, Leah Anova, Reggie Lee, David Maquiling at Sumalee Montano.

Sa kanyang Facebook page, ramdam na ramdam ang pagkadismaya ng line producer ng “When I Met You In Tokyo” na si Redgie Magno. Narito ang kabuuan ng kanyang open letter sa FB.
“First of All, congratulations to all the winners at the MIFF most especially to our very own , Miss Vilma Santos for winning the BEST ACTRESS award.
“There is just something that I want to ask the organizers of MIFF….this is also the same question asked by all who watched the movie When I Met You In Tokyo because Christopher De Leon was very good in the movie.
“So the question is WHY was Mr. CHRISTOPHER DE LEON NOT EVEN NOMINATED? He may not be your choice as Best Actor , we respect that..and your choices Dingdong D and Piolo P are both good actors as well and deserving.
“But IT IS NOT ABOUT BOYET DE LEON NOT WINNING. BUT NOT EVEN BEING NOMINATED in the BEST ACTOR category..WHY??? For me that is so DISRESPECTFUL, WICKED and DISGUSTING!!! WAS IT REALLY THAT DIFFICULT TO NOMINATE HIM?

“There will be No issue if he did poorly in the movie but he did a very good portrayal of his role in the movie that is why many are questioning why he was NOT EVEN NOMINATED. Mr De Leon attended the event, fixed his busy schedule to be present at the event and to give his support to MIFF.. and to just be given this kind of TREATMENT?? really so DISGUSTING!!
“NO ONE FROM THE ORGANIZERS REALLY THOUGHT OF NOMINATING HIM???? WHY po??? So, MIFF organizers, respectfully , we will really appreciate an explanation why Mr. Christopher De Leon nomination was not even considered, PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY????”
