If it’s your last night on earth, what do you intend to do? Or what do you need to do?
“Last Night” is the title of the movie reuniting the tandem of Piolo Pascual and Toni Gonzaga and for the first this, under the direction of Bb. Joyce Bernal. It answers the two questions for the characters they play.
It was in 2014 when Piolo and Toni co-starred in Star Cinema’s Valentine offering and made it a blockbuster at the box-office. In 2005, Toni was first directed by Joyce in the comedy-horror flick “D’Anothers.” In 2007, Direk Joyce megged Piolo and Regine Velasquez in the romantic comedy “Paano Kita Iibigin.”
Definitely, fans of Piolo and Toni are eager to see their idols in “Last Night” where both portray unique roles entirely different from their previous roles. For one, there’s a certain mystery surrounding the story and in Piolo’s mind, it’s a “dangerous” character, in a “dangerous” love story.
Toni, as Carmina, said her character has reached a breaking point. One dark night, she meets Mark (Piolo), a man who has lost everything and like Carmina feels he’s at the end of life.
“Last Night” is based on a screenplay written by actress Bela Padilla who it seems is likely to be more involved these coming days in creative endeavors like writing. She has written a few screenplays and she revealed she would like to be a film director like Bb. Joyce Bernal someday.
Asked if “Last Night” has anything to do with her personal experience, Bela said, “No, this is purely fictional.”
“Last Night” opened in cinemas nationwide yesterday Sept. 27.
