El Presidente Essay

El Presidente was a film which portrays the happenings from the past when colonization of other country started while Emilio Aguinaldo was the president. later watching the film, though we watched it bit by bit because of limited time, I can say it was still worth it, because it at least showed to us the events in the past with the creativity of the people behind it.The film was good. I enjoyed watching it, though in some parcels of it were kind of confusing to me maybe because I dont have enough knowledge of history. There are parts when Andres Bonifacio had been a traitor and had been punished to death because of him being a traitor, this disordered me. Way back years ago, when I was in elementary and high school years, I can still remember that A. Bonifacio was one of the people I salute in the Philippine History, for being the Father of Katipunan and founder of it. But when I saw that film, Im confused with what to think of him because of what he acted when somebody kind of ins ult him for not having a higher level of education. He loses his patience and that led to his betrayal to the katipunan. I think if I was in his position, I wouldnt do what he did, I would prove them wrong about what they think an uneducated or someone who has lower level of learning poor to lead, with that he should have proved himself worthy instead of being eaten by his anger.Also, theres another thing of the film which Im confused, its Emilio Aguinaldo. It seemed care E. Aguinaldo was a type of person who do not have any flaws in the film. Overall the film was worth watching. It gave me goose bumps in some part of it because of its intensity, and that hurt feeling seeing how our ancestors fight for our freedom that were having now because of their bravery even though they had risked their lives for it.
