We've heard 'Never Again!' so often; it almost sounds like a joke. Something read, but not respected. Heard, but never heeded. 'Do you remember the 21st night of September?' Earth, Wind, and Fire hits different for us Filipinos. That opening line stands responsible for turning many-a-night out into a chance for a history lesson. Amidst neon lights and blazing music, at the top of our lungs we would tell our story: This day, 51 years ago, Ferdinand Marcos Sr. issued Proclamation No. 1081 placing the Philippines under a state of martial law.

By his own admission, Dennis Trillo didn't put much effort into reading Rizal's novels back in high school. He saw 'Noli Me Tangere' and 'El Filibusterismo' merely as required readings to pass Filipino subjects. That's why when GMA 7 offered him the role of Crisostomo Ibarra for the portal drama-fantasy series 'Maria Clara at Ibarra (MCAI),' he had a few misgivings. 'I gave it some thought at first. ‘Would I be able to give justice to such a big and important role?' I wondered. I didn't know Ibarra well enough because I wasn't keen on reading ‘Noli' and ‘El Fili' when I was a student,' he told the Inquirer in a recent Zoom interview arranged by his new management, Aguila Entertainment.
