Video: Manila By Night/ City After Dark (1980)




 Manila By Night/City After Dark (1980)

One of my favorite scenes from the movie, Manila By Night/City After Dark (1980) Starring: Charito Solis, Johnny Wilson, Lorna Tolentino, Alma Moreno, Rio Locsin, Gina Alajar, Cherrie Gil, William Martinez, Orestes Ojeda
City After Dark, originally titled Manila by Night, is a 1980 drama film directed by Ishmael Bernal. Released at the height of the Marcos regime, the film uncovers the other face of Manila by depicting the ugly aspects of life in the city - unemployment, prostitution, drug addiction, and lack of decent housing. Considered as one of Bernal's masterpieces, it is an epic multi-narrative of people who have shady pasts and are trying to exist in an unforgiving world. ---WikiPilipinas Hip 'N Free
