A Letter to Momo
I find Mame very creepy actually; as a Filipino with a common myth about that thing—“tyanak”—I find them similar, especially with the color and those large circling eyes, but the two were just okay since I've been introduced to many films with weird creatures, especially from Ghibli.

A Letter to Momo
When my father died I kinda wished that he had left something behind. Anything could be a letter, something he's been treasuring for years, anything that I can keep to engrave him in me, in my heart and mind forever but there was nothing that he left other than the pain and sadness that I kept on drowning onto up till now. A Letter to Momo is a heartfelt film that can come either pretty funny by its sense of humor in a way but also in a way that could flip a switch in your heart in a very good or perhaps oddly way.

Watching this I couldn’t help but to recall the last moments that I shared with my father before the time was too late and just by then I remembered how so much time was wasted where we could've bonded more. I want to keep on consuming memories of him so I will never forget but those memories are starting to get harder for me to remember and so I hope I could do a little ritual dance to send a letter with my own three goblins also known as my dogs to say that I miss and I love him so much and that he'll always be remembered.
