July 25, 2012 marks the showing of the 50th anniversary movie of Governor Vilma Santos-Recto. The movie has two versions of screening the R13 and R18 screenings parang DVD na merong regular cut at meron din namang directors cut. Another first in the history of Philippine Cinema. Some who have seen the R13 version of the movie are most likely to see the movie once again and this time on the R18 version. By the end of the movie, the biggest question left upon the viewers is the mystery behind the film's intriguing color schemes. It appears that the film was somehow divided into chapters with the enigmatic use of color coding. You can see the characters prominently dressed in blue, red, and yellow as some sort of a uniform. The set design, costumes and props complement the same colors ubiquitously shown at certain parts of the movie, though no clear explanation was given to explicate the meaning behind it. It's so vague it becomes pointless. One could be forgiven for thinking that the 'blue chapter' was just a lame ploy to bring into mind Ate Vi's Bear Brand endorsement.
