I love these pictures of Ate Guy when she's just plain having fun. I took this photo right after dinner and when I asked her to strike a pose, she did it the baklang-bakla way. This is not just your average pictorial session. It comes complete with stories about her career. I remember someone asking what her favorite movies are and she quickly answered Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos, Himala, Bona, Ina Ka Ng Anak Mo, Bakit Bughaw Ang Langit? Bilangin Ang Bituin Sa Langit and Pacita M. What about The Flor Contemplacion Story? someone muttered, Ate Guy just raised her eyebrows, he then said Ang taray! Ayaw ng Flor Contemplacion samantalang doon siya nanalo ng International Award! The Superstar also told us about the personal significance of Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos. She was having marriage and finacial troubles at the time. Ate Guy thought they won't be able to finish filming due to lack of funds. But her resourcefulness triumphed in the end. Alkitrang Dugo was a mild hit at the box office and she used the films' meager earnings to finish the movie. Lagi namang nagkakaroon ng problema pag nagpo-produce ako, she said. And the result was her triumphant win when she was named Best Actress by the Manunuri Ng Pelikulang Pilipino's very first Gawad URIAN and subsequently the FAMAS for her astounding performance in the Mario O'Hara masterpiece Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos.

hello pauljames!
to answer some of your inquiries, Ate Guy's dream role nowadays if you'll consider it one is of the bida/kontrabida kind. she doesn't want to do anymore api roles. in the number of times she was here in New York, the Superstar saw broadway shows and when inside her hotel room she passes time by watching old Elvis Presley movies on cable. Ate Guy also loves Richard Dreyfuss, she thinks he's a great actor.
