It was known for its critically acclaimed and award-winning films such as ''Hihintayin Kita sa Langit'' and ''Ligaya Ang Itawag Mo Sa Akin''. Reyna Films produced 12 films from 1991 to 2000. Armida Siguion-Reyna also appeared as actress, aside from being a producer, in three of her productions: ''Ikaw Pa Lang Ang Minahal'', ''Inagaw Mo ang Lahat sa Akin'' and ''Ligaya Ang Itawag Mo Sa Akin''. The company has been defunct since 2000, after Azucena. ==History== Prior to this production company, Armida Siguion-Reyna already established Aawitan Kita Productions, known for the Filipino musical program ''Aawitan Kita''. She also established PERA Productions in 1977, with only three films produced. After which, Siguion-Reyna worked as line producer with different film productions from 1979-1983. In 1988, Siguion-Reyna co-produced with Viva Films a film ''Misis Mo, Misis Ko'' which turned out to be a success.〔http://www.manunuri.com/armida_siguion_reyna_film_actor_producer_industry_leader〕 After its successful venture with Viva Films, Armida and her son Carlitos (director of ''Misis Mo, Misis Ko''), together with writer Bibeth Orteza, decided to establish a film production company. The debut production ''Hihintayin Kita Sa Langit'', starring Richard Gomez and Dawn Zulueta in one of their first team-up appearances, became a success and is award-winning with 18 combined awards received from FAMAS, Urian, and FAP. The next film ''Ikaw Pa Lang Ang Minahal'' in 1992 won 27 awards from the mentioned award giving bodies and YCC.〔http://www.manunuri.com/armida_siguion_reyna_film_actor_producer_industry_leader〕 Almost all films produced by Reyna Films were proven to be a critical success, and brought honor for the Philippines in several international film festivals. ''Inagaw Mo Ang Lahat sa Akin'' won Best Picture in the 1996 Nortel Palm Springs International Film Festival as well as Best Picture in the 1996 FAMAS awards. ''Ang Lalaki sa Buhay ni Selya'' won the Special Jury prize in the Teddy Awards of the 1998 Berlin International Film Festival, the Best Asian Film award at the 1999 Newport Beach International Film Festival, and the Special Jury prize in the 1998 Turin Gay and Lesbian International Film Festival.

''Azucena'' was adjudged Best Picture at the 2001 San Diego Asian-American Film Festival. While the first two productions in 1991 and 1992 were money-makers, ''Ligaya Ang Itawag Mo Sa Akin'' turned out to be a blockbuster.〔http://www.manunuri.com/armida_siguion_reyna_film_actor_producer_industry_leader〕 However, as with local producers in the 1990s, Reyna Films encountered major problems in taxation and censorship.〔http://www.manunuri.com/armida_siguion_reyna_film_actor_producer_industry_leader〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Reyna Films」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
