A Consoling and Moving Tribute

Award-winning actor (AA) owes his success to a number of excellent directors who helped hone his craft. AA had the right attitude ever since: commitment, discipline, sensitivity. He started as a stuntman,  starred in various B movies in the beginning. He also played major roles as action star in several action movies and a brief television career playing the lead role in the sitcom opposite a versatile actress. Apart from acting, AA also embarked on a singing career.

His career milestone happened when he played a significant role in a historical movie that garnered major awards in many award-giving bodies. The film is unprecedented in its relevance up to the present day. It paved the way for his many acting awards later in a number of classic Filipino movies.

One of those whom AA owes much of his success to was the well-respected lady director LD who megged him in some of these unforgettable movies. LD molded and brought out the thespian in him. AA got inspired by LD, learned the ropes from her and soon got into directing himself. AA was always vocal about LD being his mentor, and both have mutual respect for each other.

Sadly, LD had to semi-retire from work due to health reasons that got worsened over the years.
During her last moments, the closest family friends came over, and they knew the inevitable was just minutes away. Most could not contain their emotions and were crying, while others kept a silent vigil. AA, on the verge of losing a very dear friend, could not show his grief. Instead of crying, he did his own tribute to LD as a respect to her dying wish. While the priest was administering the rites, AA started to sing some worship songs. He got so carried away by his singing that went on for a time.

In his own way, AA made sure that LD left the world with all those songs in her heart.

  29. AA had the right attitude to make it in the industry: commitment, discipline, sensitivity." You're so smart FP. AA was his last show. And these were the exact words he advised the newbies during the Grand Awards Night. Smart, smart, smart!

    1. Talagang akting na akting ang isang ito. Totoo bang nambobog daw ng mga jowa nya si senator wanna-be? Pakitanong nga si Nanette at Teresita.

      Delete
  33. Kasi naman, siya lang ang pinaka-inaasahan sa tribute dahil siya ang pinasikat ni Direktora sa mga movies nila.

    Nasan na ang mga girls ng pelikulang imMORAL, si alyas Bebot China, si Phillip Morris sa KANAL, si Champagne Arnaeez sa Milagro?

  34. Ay ito yung bit player sa movie ni Ishma na Working Gurlz...siya yung nambubully kay Rio Moccasin na sumapak sa kanya sa ending!

    ReplyDelete
  35. si buboy at yung namayapang director nung film nya na sumisisid sila sa pusod ng dagat. matagal na napaghandaan ng mga relatives at close friends nya ang reality na may taning na buhay ni lady director. i think it was one of the request of the lady director sa close friends and relatives nya na ayaw nya ng malungkot kaya siguro kahit mabigat sa loob ni buboy ginawa nyang aliwin ang sarili nya at yung mga tao. pagka alam ko even sa set during the filming of their movie maraming tawanan at kantahan sa set with buboy who is a good folk singer at guitar player . i'm sure andaming good memories nila.

  37. Si Singing Bee! :)

  38. Bakit blind item ito? Wala namang nakakasirang puri sa mga tao dito para itago ang mga pagkakatao nila. May kanya kanyang paraan tayo sa pagdalamhati kaya kung sa kanya ay pagkanta, hayaan na lang siya. Kasi kung nakakaistorbo siya sa last rites, malamang sinabihan na siya nung priest.

  39. The Singing Bee and the Lady Director who just passed away...

  45. Nice to know na nandun si Original Machete sa last moments ni Direk M. It shows na marunong syang tumanaw ng utang na loob.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Baka yun talaga ang response nya sa mga moments na ganyan. :-(

    At least, nagbigay tribute sya kay Lady Director. Naku, Pepe, hinay hinay lang sa pag-awit... baka matusok ka ng bubuyog!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Di naman blind item ito at wala namang masama sa pagbigay ng awit para sa mahal nyang direktora. Concert? Come on! OA story.
