PMPC reveals nominees for 38th Star Awards for Movies

November 28 ------ It’s all systems go as the Philippine Movie Press Club, Inc. (PMPC) gears up for the 38th Star Awards for Movies to be held early 2023.

Founded in the late 1960s, PMPC is considered to be the pioneering group of entertainment media in the country. It is a professional group of active entertainment columnists, editors, writers, and bloggers/vloggers. The PMPC Star Awards is known for its sophistication and artistry. The 38th Star Awards for Movies is expected to be a rebirth — of a grand tribute to local movie industry, the filmmakers, workers, and performers — as well as for the PMPC for keeping the industry alive and well during those bleak times who championed both mainstream and independently-produced films shown and streamed in 2021.

Truly a milestone year at 38, PMPC PMPC intends to bring back the glamour and glitz of showbiz celebration. A special presentation is devoted to honoring two industry icons: Ms. Helen Gamboa for the Nora Aunor Ulirang Artista Lifetime Achievement Award, and Director Chito Roño for the Ulirang Alagad ng Pelikula sa Likod ng Kamera Lifetime Achievement Award. This awards night is headed by PMPC President Fernan de Guzman as overall chair together with the 2022 officers and board of directors. Current PMPC Secretary Mell Navarro is the chairman for the 38th Star Awards for Movies together with PMPC Treasurer Lourdes Fabian as co-chairman.
