Year after year, Mario Bautista of People's Journal makes his own list of the best films and performances during the year, which somehow determines the outcome of the upcoming awards nights.
And for 2008, he has reviewed a total 84 films, 26 of which are mainstream movies while the rest are digital films, and comes up with his own honor roll of best films and performances for the year.
Anne Curtis, who won as Best Actress for 'Baler' in the 2008 Metro Manila Film Festival is not one of the Best Actresses for 2008, according to Bautista.
Take a look.
