The 29th FAMAS Award for Best Picture was given to the movie called Aguila and contrary to what is being whispered about by birdwatchers, it is not about an eagle that preys on parish priests. It took 12 stars, 60 production staff and crewmen, 7,000 extras, 120 different locations, and 100 days to film 204 pages of script about the life of Daniel Aguila which traverses the 1890s to the 1970s. The movie, "Aguila" chronicles the passionate saga of the life and times of the Aguila family headed by the elderly Daniel Aguila (Fernando Poe, Jr.). Spanning a period of 80 years, beginning with the 1896 Philippine Revolution up to the 1970s, Aguila's family is unraveled through flashbacks and memories.[1][2]
