ROME & JULIET Makes a Return Engagement in Galleria

After its sensational Valentine's week box office
performance, Cinema One Originals' ROME & JULIET gets
an encore theatrical run starting March 7 at the
Robinsons Galleria's Indie Sine Theater.

Starring the daring Mylene Dizon and Andrea del
Rosario, Rome & Juliet was one of the seven chosen
entries in last year's Cinema One Originals Digital
Movie Festival. It also stars Rafael Rosell, Mico
Palanca, Liza Dino, Glydel Mercado and featuring Ms.
Tessie Tomas. The film garnered both acclaim and talks
of controversy for its intriguing plotline which
involved themes of lesbianism.

This digital movie directed by Connie S.A. Macatuno
revolves around the idea that love knows no rules.
When Juliet (Andrea del Rosario), a conservative
pre-school teacher hires Rome (Mylene Dizon), a
liberated wedding planner, for her nuptials, they
become close and develop a romance that becomes a huge
scandal after Juliet's groom (the sexy Rafael Rosell)
and their families discover their affair. Not long
after, Juliet is driven away by her parents and gets
into an accident that puts her in a coma. Tracing the
reasons and depths why two women fell unexpectedly in
love make Rome & Juliet a romance that is both
touching and thought-provoking.

Mylene Dizon won a much-deserved Best Actress trophy
in the Cinema One Originals Digital Movie Festival and
Competition held last November. Co-star Andrea Del Rosario also
impressed movie watchers and observers and was nominated for Best
Actress at the Golden Screen Awards. The movie also got major
category nominations in the upcoming 2007 Star Awards for Movies such
as Movie Actress of the Year for Andrea del Rosario,Movie Director of
the Year for Connie S.A. Macatuno,and Digital Movie of the Year.

Its first successful two-week theatrical run at
Robinsons Galleria, Robinsons Metro East and at
Robinsons Place Ermita Manila precipitated this return
theatrical engagement showing at the Robinsons Galleria.

Juliet was produced by Creative Programs, Inc. (CPI) through its
annual Cinema One Originals project.Rome & Juliet will also be shown
in Iloilo and Bacolod after its theatrical run in Robinsons Galleria
