NORA AUNOR WINS BEST ACTRESS IN CINEMALAYA 2014


Nora Aunor keeps having the last laugh.

As expected, the nation’s most celebrated actress tucked another accolade under her belt when she was named Best Actress in the Directors Showcase category at the awarding ceremonies for Cinemalaya X Sunday night at the Cultural Center of the Philippines Main Theater.

The honor, for her role as a human trafficker  in the film “Hustisya”, follows the recent presidential snub of her nomination for the National Artist award.


When Nora, who is also known to fans as Ate Guy, was announced as the Cinemalaya 2014 Best Actress for Hustisya, presenter Mimi Juareza described her as “our National Artist.”

In response, the crowd inside the Main Theater gave Ate Guy a standing ovation as she went up the stage to receive the Balanghai trophy.

In her speech, Ate Guy thanked the Noranians who comprised a huge portion of the crowd.

“Sa wakas po, nagkaroon ako ng pelikula sa Cinemalaya,” exclaimed Nora in her acceptance speech.

Robert Arevalo won Best Actor, also for Directors Showcase, for his performance in “Hari ng Tondo”. In the New Breed category, Eula Valdez (“Dagitab”) and Dante Rivero (1st Ko si 3rd”) were named Best Actress and Actor, respectively.
