The recipients were National Artist Eddie Romero ("Ganito Kami Noon, Paano Kayo Ngayon," "Sino'ng Kasiping, Sino'ng Kapiling," "Agila"), Celso Ad. Castillo ("Burlesk Queen," "Pagputi ng Uwak, Pag-itim ng Tagak"), Emmanuel H. Borlaza (for his well-crafted melodramas based on komiks novels like "Dapat Ka Bang Mahalin" and "Bituing Walang Ningning"), Ronwaldo Reyes (the pseudonym of Fernando Poe, Jr. who excelled in the action genre like in "Muslim Magnum .357," "Kapag Puno Na ang Salop"), and the late Luciano B. Carlos (a topnotch comedy director who directed Dolphy hits like "Facifica Falayfay" and "Fefita Fofonggay.")
