In February, Jasmine also showed her full support for her sister, Anne Curtis, at the premiere of the latter’s film The Loved One.
"I sat in my car for a good hour after watching The Loved One, just absorbing everything. It is such a quiet, honest portrait of how love develops and changes when two people grow in life," she posted on her Instagram page.
Jasmine also praised the cast’s compelling portrayals in the movie. "The performances felt so raw, it was painful to watch two people loving each other the only way they knew how," she said.
The actress likewise highlighted the thoughtful styling and use of color in portraying the journey of Anne’s character, Ellie.
"I loved the visual language: the blues of Ellie's (and love's) initial fluidity, then the browns when she finds some of her own grounding.. like love finding its shape, then finding its limits," she said.
Jasmine also recalled the lines and scenes that resonated with her the most.
"That 'I just want you, to live with you' moment… Ellie kneeling, almost like her own proposal. 'Hinahanap na natin 'yung dating tayo sa ibang tao.' By the end, even the colors fade into black and white… like love reaching the end of one season of its life," she stated.
