List of FAMAS Nominations for Nora | ||||||
With the help of our Nora Aunor Yahoo Group, I was able to put together this list of Famas Best Actress nominations for Nora. Almost every year in the 1970's, Nora was a nominee winning her first Famas Best Actress in 1976 for Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos. In the 1980's Nora's understated acting style was overshadowed by the hysterical type of performance which apparently award jurors prefer. Notice how her outstanding understated performances in Bona, Bakit Bughaw ang Langit, 'Merika, Mga Uod at Rosas and especially HIMALA (not even a nomination) did not merit any Famas awards. In the 1990's, Nora (I'm guessing) decided to give the award jurors' what they want. The over the top performances in Bilangin ang Bituin sa Langit and Andrea gave her two Famas Best Actress two years in a row, elevating her to Famas Hall of Fame. Her HIMALA performance although not recognized by any of the award giving bodies except the Metro Filmfest is considered by most critics as her best ever. 1972 - A Gift of Love 1973 - Paru-parong Itim 1974 - Fe, Esperanza, Caridad 1975 - Banaue 1976 - Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos - WINNER 1978 - Atsay 1979 - Ina Ka ng Anak Mo - WINNER 1980 - Bona 1981 - Bakit Bughaw ang Langit 1982 - Mga Uod at Rosas 1983 - Minsan May Isang Ina 1984 - Bulaklak sa City Jail - WINNER 1985 - Tinik sa Dibdib 1989 - Bilangin ang Bituin sa Langit - WINNER 1990 - Andrea, Paano Ba ang Maging Isang Ina - WINNER 1991 - HALL OF FAME 1995 - CIRCLE OF EXCELLENCE - The Flor Contemplacion Story ////// Several Nora Aunor movies were recognized as Best Picture of the Year by Famas 1976 - Minsa'y Isang Gamu-gamo 1977 - Bakya Mo Neneng 1989 - Bilangin ang Bituin sa Langit 1990 - Andrea, Paano Ba ang Maging Isang Ina? 1991 - Ang Totoong Buhay ni Pacita M. 1999 - Sidhi 2004 - Naglalayag |
