Actor-politician Alfred Vargas was disappointed when his film Pieta was excluded from the official lineup of the 2023 Metro Manila Film Festival in December. This film earned Alfred the Best Actor award at the 2024 Famas Awards, which took place at the Manila Hotel on May 26.

Alfred made the revelation during a Thanksgiving lunch for the entertainment press in Quezon City on Thursday, June 6.

"Masakit pero I have accepted the fact na ang hirap talagang makapasok sa MMFF. Parang dumaan ka talaga sa butas ng karayom. I had my share of MMFF films. So ganun talaga. Sometimes you make it, sometimes you don't. Nasasayangan talaga ako na hindi siya nakapasok sa MMFF," Alfred said. On his political ambition in 2025, Alfred:"Nothing is final until we file. But for now, I want to commend my brother, Patrick Michael, who is doing a great job as a congressman. Aaminin ko mas magaling siyang congressman kesa sa akin. We will let the people decide. Actually si Nay Lolit na rin ang nagsabi na i-enjoy ko muna ang pahinga ko."Alfred also announced that Pieta - also starring Gina Alajar and the late Jaclyn Jose - would not be shown on any streaming platform.
