Manila Boy Movie was disqualified
Robin Padilla's movie was disqualified for the showing of Metro Manila cinemas in 1993, as the board of governors being the mayors that comprise Metro Manila. In particular, the mayor of Manila at the time, Alfredo Lim, was concerned of the violent, lawless image of a "Manila Boy" being promoted by the movie. The mayor not only dropped the movie from the annual festival but also threatened to ban of the movie from being shown in the city of Manila. To go around the ban, the producers agreed to drop "Manila" from the title and released the movie as just "Boy".
