Imelda Marcos' glam and presence has never dissipated throughout the years, since her teenage years up until now, Imelda's presence, influence, and legacy still lingers.
We all know about the luxurious life of the Marcoses during their "reign" of 21 years here in the Philippines. We all heard about the jewels the lavish costumes and shoes that Imelda had as well as her passion for the arts, but I've never heard of her life story. All I knew that she was from Leyte and she married Ferdinand Marcos.
The documentary was very very interesting, it shows different sides of the stories about Imelda and the Marcoses. And also the commentaries are very amusing and funny at times. The documentary also shows a lot about Imelda's character. She's very narcissistic, meaning she often, well frequently, thinks of herself and about herself only. Everything is all about her, and everyone else little roles in her world. She regales the tales of all her works, her ideas and ideals, her life, basically everything. Her world only revolves around her and her family.
She shows her power and influence that can capture absolutes anyone, from international leaders like Muammar Gadaffi, to international singers, and the Filipino people, who some of them still support Imelda. She wields great power of influence to these people, which in some ways very good, because essentially and supposedly it was all for the greater good of the Filipino people.
The documentary was an interesting watch, whether or not you agree with Imelda, it really captures your attention and it show you her life, work, and dreams. And also whether you support or like Imelda or not, you can not deny, Imelda's got style.
