Image: Instagram/@janinegutierrez: To honor the late Superstar Nora Aunor and her significant contribution to Philippine cinema and television, the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) has issued the age-appropriate rating for two of her acclaimed films ahead of their return to theaters. The MTRCB has rated “Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos” and “Tatlong Ina, Isang Anak” as PG (Parental Guidance), indicating they are suitable for family audiences.
During theatrical viewing, parents are encouraged to accompany younger viewers and engage them in meaningful discussions about the films’ themes. Directed by Mario O’Hara, the 1976 wartime classic “Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos” is widely celebrated by critics and hailed as one of Philippine cinema’s finest, while the 1987 drama “Tatlong Ina, Isang Anak” delves into the emotional depths of motherhood through the intertwined lives of three women bound by love and sacrifice. These restored classics are being relaunched through the ABS-CBN Film Restoration Project (Sagip Pelikula) as a tribute to the late Superstar, whose legacy continues to shape Filipino arts and culture.
