00:02 Hi everyone! New episode of Surprise Guest with Pia Arcangel,
00:06 which means another surprise conversation
00:09 that we will do today in this episode.
00:12 And I'm excited because every episode is a big surprise.
00:17 Okay, here it is. Our clues are coming.
00:20 Our first clue, multi-awarded film and TV actress.
00:25 Oh, exciting! Oh my, Valentina Gumanap!
00:31 I feel like I saw her recently in GMA, outside the studio.
00:38 Our next clue, my older sister who is also an artist.
00:43 Oh my, I know! Surprise guest, is that you, Alessandra?
00:49 Is that you? Yes!
00:52 Surprise!
00:54 Hi!
00:55 Sorry, there's one more clue that I was chasing.
00:59 I thought it was multi-awarded. I said, "Oh, it's me."
01:03 You guessed it right away.
01:06 You put three awards.
01:08 But it's multi-awarded.
01:10 Because if it's one, it's still award-winning.
01:14 Oh, is that so?
01:15 Yes, if it's two, it's still award-winning.
01:18 But if it's three, it's multi-awarded.
01:20 Oh, that's how it is?
01:22 Yes!
01:23 Hey, how are you, Alessandra? I guessed it right.
01:25 You know, when we saw each other outside the studio,
01:29 I said, "I feel like she'll be my surprise guest one of these days."
01:34 That's why I said, "You can go to Ms. Pia Arcangel."
01:37 But I only saw you last night.
01:39 So I said, "Hi, Ms. Pia!"
01:41 Hi, Alessandra! How are you?
01:43 First of all, congratulations because Firefly is part of the Metro Manila Film Fest.
01:49 Thank you, MMFF. I'm super happy because our movie is a fantasy.
01:56 Of course, feelings and fantasy.
01:58 But fantasy is better on the big screen, right?
02:02 Of course. When you watch it on the big screen, it's different.
02:05 And you also have a role as a kid in the film.
02:08 Yes, so the film is really for kids.
02:10 I'll say, "All ages are welcome."
02:12 We're the family movie. Come on!
02:16 In other words, we should be your first choice in the film fest.
02:19 Yes, we're the first on Christmas Day.
02:22 The story is really beautiful.
02:25 It's an adventure. So I think you should join us, guys.
02:29 What's the story of Firefly? Let's start there.
02:32 What's the story of Firefly?
02:33 We'll start with Ding Dong Dantes.
02:36 He's also in the casting. He's our storyteller.
02:39 He's holding the book of Alitap-Tap.
02:42 He's telling us how his mother made this magical island.
02:47 He'll go back to it for his entire journey.
02:50 It's beautiful. It's a very nice story. I promise.
02:53 So the story is about a kid named Ding Dong.
02:57 Yes, he's a kid named Ding Dong.
02:59 So I'm the mother of Ding Dong.
03:01 Can I say it?
03:02 Let's make it clear. Mother of the young Ding Dong.
03:05 Okay, okay.
03:07 Mother of the young Ding Dong.
03:10 How was your experience doing the film?
03:13 I saw from Cinema Mamnesa that they posted the whole process.
03:18 It was very exciting from the time it was conceptualized to the time you were actually shooting.
03:23 They were also very hands-on in filming and producing.
03:26 Yes, it was fun.
03:28 We shot in a basement.
03:30 So you can really feel the production design.
03:36 It was in the heat of the summer.
03:40 That's when it was 33-36 degrees here in the Philippines.
03:43 We were on top of a ship.
03:47 It was beautiful, but it was hot.
03:50 But it was fun because you can really feel the adventure.
03:57 It wasn't your first time doing an adventure project.
04:03 You were the one who found Valentina.
04:06 You've experienced that before.
04:08 But how was this experience different from the others?
04:10 I think my role here is a mother.
04:13 As Tulay, our director, said, I'm not a mother yet.
04:18 But I can convey the emotions of a mother.
04:22 The feeling that you don't want to get your child in danger,
04:25 but at the same time, you want to teach her what she wants.
04:30 She's that kind of mother.
04:32 I have a lot of emotions to open up.
04:34 I told her, "I don't want to relate to you."
04:36 I just thought of my birds.
04:39 I'm not a mother yet.
04:41 Not dogs, but birds?
04:43 Birds?
04:44 Birds, yes.
04:46 How many birds do you have?
04:48 Two.
04:49 What kind of birds are they? Parrot?
04:51 Anconur, the orange one.
04:53 And a big cat.
04:55 Piolo Pascual gave me that.
04:57 He destroyed our house, but we're okay.
05:02 He destroyed it because it wasn't caged.
05:05 It was flying.
05:06 Yes, it was flying.
05:07 He could take anything he wanted.
05:09 Table, chairs.
05:11 I changed the chairs.
05:12 They're now metal.
05:14 They used to be wood, so the sides are gone.
05:17 So there's no upholstered in your house anymore?
05:20 No, no.
05:21 The taste is changing.
05:23 I'm now in metal, marble.
05:26 It's hard to get.
05:27 Wait, why did Piolo give you a bird?
05:30 Did he know you like birds?
05:32 Or did he just think of it and he fell in love with you?
05:35 Because Kitten, my little bird,
05:38 there was a time when he was chasing my two hands.
05:43 So my fear was that I don't want to feel that there's a limit to our human nature.
05:51 I don't have wings.
05:54 I can't save him just in case.
05:57 So I joked to Papa Pina,
06:00 "Papa Pina, help me with this."
06:02 He said, "Why?"
06:03 "So that Kitten has a protector."
06:05 So it was just a joke because that bird is expensive.
06:09 So I said, "You buy it because you're rich."
06:12 So that's how he bought it.
06:14 Wow.
06:15 What else can we joke to Papa Pina?
06:17 Yes, I said, "House in love, beach house."
06:21 Yes, let's raise the price range.
06:24 I don't know if he's telling the truth.
06:26 What's the name of the cockatoo?
06:29 Poppy.
06:30 Because Papa Pina's name is Piper.
06:31 Kitten and Pa.
06:33 Kitten and Poppy.
06:34 But wait, did Kitten give you anything?
06:37 She just bought me something.
06:39 She said it's too small, I can't put it in.
06:41 I said, "I don't want a pet."
06:42 "I can't do that."
06:43 It's so annoying.
06:44 It's like it's been a week and it's still annoying.
06:45 So I thought maybe I should put it in a cage.
06:49 I felt sorry for it.
06:50 My mother-in-law came out, my instincts.
06:53 Yes, so that's where it was.
06:55 I said, "It's just here in the house so it can be free."
06:59 So they really don't have a cage?
07:00 Where do they sleep?
07:01 Do they know where they'll be put?
07:03 Yes, Kitten has a place where she's stuck.
07:07 She'll just go in there.
07:08 Poppy, since she arrived in a cage,
07:11 at night, she'll go in her cage.
07:13 But it's too long.
07:16 It's too long.
07:18 It's like there's a pig being slaughtered in our house.
07:21 It's like, "Oh my, no one's going to help you."
07:25 Oh my, she just doesn't want to sleep inside her room.
07:29 Yes, she just wants to play outside.
07:33 So because I have that, I can feel it.
07:38 Even if it's not planned.
07:40 So is that serious?
07:41 That's where you get your emotions to relate to?
07:45 Because Poppy's age, Wikipedia says,
07:50 is 65 years old.
07:52 So obviously, she'll outlive me.
07:56 So I have this, "Oh my goodness, what if I'm gone?"
08:01 It hurts, you know? It hurts to think about it.
08:06 What about Kitten?
08:08 She's 25 years old.
08:09 Oh, 25.
08:10 How old are they?
08:12 Kitten, how old are you?
08:13 Kitten, three. Poppy, one.
08:15 Poppy's a baby.
08:17 In the end, she's more afraid of Kitten.
08:20 So she can't protect Kitten, just in case.
08:25 So we need to tell Papa Pina,
08:27 "Maybe we can do another one?"
08:29 Yes, another one.
08:30 "Oh my, I'm going to go."
08:31 "I'm going to go."
08:32 Yes, so that it's direct.
08:34 "I'm going to go."
08:35 But Hedes, I heard from Direct Zig,
08:39 that one take from you is already a good take.
08:42 So maybe that's why your take is so good.
08:46 It's like you don't need to go deep.
08:49 It's right there on the surface.
08:51 That's what he told me.
08:52 My first take is always my best take.
08:54 Sometimes, he'll try to do two or three takes.
08:58 But it's always the first take.
09:00 I can't do it again.
09:01 I said, "Oh my, I'm so embarrassed."
09:03 Because he's like, "Maybe we can do another one?"
09:07 But I guess that's his best take.
09:10 That's what Zig told me.
09:12 I was thinking, "Oh, it's a good take already."
09:14 "So there's no more take 2."
09:16 That's what I was thinking.
09:18 But he wanted more.
09:20 So he did a take 2.
09:22 I thought he had a good BI.
09:25 He was going to get my shot in the first take.
09:28 But he still had more.
09:30 I'll just do it in the next one.
09:32 Was it your first time working together?
09:34 No.
09:35 We did two Wagas together.
09:36 Two?
09:37 Yes, two.
09:38 We did a film called Bambandi.
09:41 Cinema something.
09:42 I think it was Filipino.
09:45 He's on Netflix now.
09:47 He's the mother of my role.
09:49 And the boy.
09:52 As long as the child is young, it's okay.
09:56 Young mother.
09:57 I can do it.
09:58 I can do it with a 17-year-old child.
10:00 If there's someone who believes in me.
10:03 If there's someone who believes in you.
10:05 Maybe there's no one.
10:06 Maybe it's because of the issue.
10:08 Maybe you need a good prosthetic.
10:11 So they'll believe.
10:12 Right?
10:13 Because you're going to have a 17-year-old child.
10:16 I can't do it anymore, Miss Pia.
10:18 I can't.
10:19 I'm a different person now.
10:21 No, when we saw each other outside the studio,
10:24 I didn't think Alessandra was getting older.
10:26 I think I'm the only one who's getting older.
10:29 Maybe because you're facing the mirror.
10:31 No, I'm just staring at the mirror.
10:34 I can't watch myself.
10:36 I'm like, "I haven't watched 'Kita Kita' yet.
10:38 Go ahead and watch it."
10:39 Then when I watched it,
10:40 "You're so young."
10:41 I don't want to watch it anymore.
10:43 Really? You didn't watch 'Kita Kita' right away?
10:45 No, I watched it on premiere night.
10:47 That's it.
10:48 I didn't watch the other films.
10:51 I can only watch them again if I want to.
10:54 That's when I'll see,
10:56 "My face is so far away."
10:58 "Was it just five years?"
10:59 "Five years is so far away."
11:01 "Or is the light just beautiful?"
11:02 That's what I'll say.
11:03 I was so excited to watch 'Kita Kita'
11:08 when it came out.
11:10 But you know,
11:11 Igan, my partner last night,
11:13 he asked me if I could tell him
11:15 what happened in the ending.
11:17 Yes, spoiler!
11:19 I said, "Oh my gosh!"
11:21 I said, "It's been so long since I watched it."
11:24 Eventually,
11:25 I was so excited.
11:26 Actually, I haven't told him this yet.
11:28 I was so excited to know what the ending was.
11:30 So I waited, but eventually,
11:32 after a few years,
11:34 I finally watched it.
11:36 I should have told him about 'Firefly' first
11:39 so there wouldn't be any spoilers.
11:40 Yes, it's a spoiler.
11:42 But no, Alessandra,
11:43 they said,
11:44 when it comes to your acting,
11:45 the comments are always,
11:47 "Your acting is very subtle."
11:49 "The tiniest movements."
11:51 But you really feel the emotion.
11:55 So was it something that you consciously tried to do?
11:58 That you tried to convey all these emotions
12:00 with just the tiniest movements?
12:02 Or was it just a coincidence that this happens to be my style of acting?
12:06 Maybe.
12:08 Because we're used to it.
12:10 Filipinos are used to crying.
12:14 When you're a victim.
12:16 In real life,
12:17 when you're a victim,
12:19 you cry later on.
12:20 You're shocked.
12:21 So I was shocked.
12:23 The writers or whatever,
12:25 they were already there.
12:26 They were already there at 100%.
12:28 You know what happened?
12:29 You died.
12:30 When they said, "He's dead,"
12:31 you immediately cried.
12:32 It's like, "Wait, is this real?"
12:34 "Is this happening?"
12:36 So that's what I was thinking about
12:38 when I was doing that scene.
12:40 And then if it counts,
12:41 the crying,
12:42 it counts.
12:43 If it doesn't,
12:44 I'm sorry.
12:45 Let's just get it over with.
12:46 It's like that.
12:47 Because you have to absorb the truth first,
12:49 right?
12:50 Before you can get there.
12:51 In grief.
12:52 Because there are five stages, right?
12:54 Yes, there are five stages.
12:56 It's a long process.
12:58 Yes.
12:59 So for me,
13:00 when the lines or the situation or the scene
13:03 hit me,
13:04 I really react to what I'll feel
13:07 when that happens to me.
13:09 And maybe it's not acting,
13:12 but sometimes I think,
13:14 "If I need the technique."
13:15 Because sometimes,
13:17 they need the 100% right away
13:19 because it's cinematic.
13:20 Ah.
13:21 But when you started,
13:22 was that your starting point?
13:24 That your acting at the start
13:26 was always from 1 to 100 right away?
13:29 Because of course,
13:30 when you're new,
13:31 do you know what your real style of acting is?
13:33 What suits you best?
13:34 Maybe I have moments like that.
13:36 Like when I was young,
13:38 my mom was gone.
13:40 "Mom, mom!"
13:41 I would cry, "Mom!"
13:42 Right away.
13:43 But when you watch it,
13:46 or when there are moments
13:48 where what's happening in real life
13:50 is not happening in real life.
13:52 For example,
13:53 in soap operas,
13:54 there's a scene where there's a funeral.
13:56 A guest arrives.
13:57 The dead one cries.
13:59 But we don't have that kind of drama
14:01 in a funeral, right?
14:03 You're trying to be strong
14:04 because you have guests.
14:06 And you're thankful that they're there.
14:08 Something like that.
14:09 Like, "Ah, so that's how it is."
14:12 So he doesn't cry.
14:14 Interesting.
14:15 Ah.
14:16 So I'm always excited.
14:17 Maybe I like to observe.
14:19 And absorb.
14:20 I absorb everything.
14:22 So it's very realistic.
14:24 And maybe you don't realize
14:25 that you're observing already.
14:27 And you'll just use it eventually.
14:29 Yes, I don't know about that.
14:30 I don't know that part.
14:31 Sometimes, for example,
14:33 something happens to me,
14:34 I don't grieve properly.
14:38 For some reason,
14:39 I knocked down that emotion.
14:41 I don't want to face it.
14:42 Whatever, I'm busy.
14:43 Or I'm bored.
14:44 And you've forgotten about it.
14:46 And one day, there's a scene.
14:47 "Ah, I know this feeling."
14:49 "Yes, this is it!"
14:51 "It hurts."
14:52 "It hurts."
14:53 Like that.
14:54 Aw.
14:55 It's interesting how you describe it.
14:57 Because usually,
14:58 when we interview artists,
15:01 it's either the ones who are very schooled,
15:04 the ones who really studied.
15:06 Or the others,
15:07 it really just comes to them.
15:09 For you,
15:10 it seems like a combination of both, right?
15:12 We call it magic.
15:15 Because you don't know how it happened.
15:18 I like it when there's a cracking voice.
15:20 And it means that you're stopping the crying
15:23 instead of forcing it.
15:25 It's more natural to stop the crying
15:27 than to force it.
15:30 Because we're not in real life, right?
15:32 It's more like,
15:34 it stops.
15:35 And then it just flows.
15:37 And then you wipe it.
15:38 For others,
15:39 when one flows,
15:41 you don't know where to go even if it's that one.
15:45 I've seen it.
15:46 When I watch TV,
15:48 they wipe their tears.
15:50 That's not true.
15:51 It's not true.
15:52 In real life,
15:55 it's not like that.
15:56 It's like,
15:57 "Okay, I'm sorry.
15:58 I'll take your time."
15:59 Sometimes,
16:00 when I take my time,
16:01 the aliens feed me lines.
16:03 They think I forgot.
16:05 So I'm like, "Wait."
16:06 "I'm just taking a break."
16:07 "This is going to hurt."
16:08 "I'm going to say something."
16:09 Like that.
16:11 I'll look for that now when I watch a show or movie.
16:15 If the artist wipes their tears right away.
16:17 Alessandra, how many years have you been in the industry?
16:23 I think I've been in the industry since I was 25.
16:26 25?
16:27 Yes.
16:28 Papa Pinang celebrated his 25th anniversary in the showbiz.
16:31 I said,
16:32 "I think I'm going to be there too."
16:34 Because we were almost together.
16:36 Asusena was one month before Laga Rista,
16:39 the launching tale.
16:40 We launched at the same time.
16:42 Okay.
16:43 So,
16:44 Papa Pinang's career is as old as mine.
16:46 You're the same.
16:47 But how old were you when you started?
16:49 I think I was younger.
16:50 I think I was younger.
16:52 Maybe even younger.
16:54 How old were you when you started?
16:56 The truth is,
16:57 I started when I was 12.
17:00 That was in Star Circle batch 7.
17:02 But when I was young,
17:04 since I was the youngest of my siblings,
17:07 or at least, she was already one.
17:08 I was with her.
17:10 Sometimes, I was the first one to get dressed.
17:12 Sometimes, I was with her in the rehearsal.
17:14 But I didn't see myself.
17:16 To be honest, up to now,
17:18 I don't remember her.
17:19 I don't remember her memories.
17:21 I don't remember her faces,
17:22 her names,
17:23 or whatever it was.
17:24 I don't remember
17:26 the "I want to be an artist."
17:27 That's not true.
17:28 I just wanted to be an artist
17:29 because I'm a fan of Princess Sarah.
17:31 Carlos,
17:32 I really feel like I'm Princess Sarah.
17:34 She's really me.
17:36 And then one day, she was filmed.
17:39 And Camille Prats,
17:40 I was watching her on TV.
17:41 She's Princess Sarah?
17:43 No!
17:44 Wait a minute.
17:45 I'm going to be an artist.
17:47 I'm really ready this time.
17:48 Do Camille know about this?
17:50 Of course.
17:51 But I told her,
17:52 "I'm not your idol.
17:53 My idol is Princess Sarah."
17:55 Context.
17:56 There's a clarification.
17:58 Yes.
17:59 You might think it's the role.
18:01 Okay?
18:02 So when did you start on-cam?
18:05 You were 12 years old.
18:07 That was in Star Circle.
18:09 Yes.
18:10 And then after that,
18:12 of course, you were already in the awkward stage.
18:14 You couldn't be a kid.
18:16 You couldn't be a love teen.
18:18 So you were a bit frozen.
18:21 And then,
18:22 the Asusena came.
18:24 I was 16 years old
18:26 when I did Asusena.
18:27 Oh!
18:28 Or at least the second read.
18:29 Yes.
18:30 Isn't it a bit daunting
18:32 that at a very young age,
18:34 you worked with Carlitos Sigonrena?
18:36 I'm glad that he was the first director I liked.
18:39 Because we reached the date 60.
18:42 Six-zero?
18:44 Yes.
18:45 Yes.
18:46 We had a scene that was four days ahead of us.
18:48 For me,
18:50 I thought that's how filmmaking is.
18:53 And sometimes you hear people talking,
18:55 "I'm Carlitos."
18:57 "Me? Never."
18:59 And I was like, "What's the problem?"
19:01 In my mind.
19:02 My next film,
19:03 Joel Labangan,
19:04 is a 17-hole.
19:06 17 sequences straight.
19:08 And you're already there.
19:09 It's like,
19:10 they have different styles.
19:12 So I understood early on
19:14 that filmmakers
19:16 are not the same.
19:18 The next one,
19:20 Gil Cortez,
19:21 is the same.
19:22 He's not slow.
19:24 He's also fast.
19:26 He has a lot of shots.
19:27 And I was his favorite.
19:30 Wow, you have a lot of colleagues
19:33 at the very start of your career.
19:35 Yes.
19:36 In my mind,
19:37 I was thinking,
19:38 in America,
19:39 TV actors are different.
19:40 Movie actors are different.
19:41 I said,
19:42 "I'll just be a movie actress."
19:43 "I don't want to be a TV actor."
19:45 Because I don't want to.
19:47 I don't want to.
19:48 And then,
19:50 there were bold films.
19:51 That's what I wanted.
19:52 So I needed to be a TV actor at this point.
19:54 Yes.
19:55 And that's when
19:56 Latina entered.
19:57 She was the character
19:58 I was most proud of.
19:59 Miss Min Jin,
20:00 it wasn't Princess Sarah at all.
20:02 Yes,
20:06 you became a contrarian.
20:08 Yes.
20:09 Is it hard to be a contrarian?
20:12 It's easier than being a contrarian.
20:14 Because a contrarian
20:15 cries all day.
20:16 And then,
20:17 he has the most sequences.
20:19 And then,
20:20 he has to do the show.
20:21 He has to do it.
20:22 He has to do it.
20:23 It's his responsibility.
20:26 As a contrarian,
20:28 after a while,
20:29 I realized that
20:30 I'm getting sick.
20:32 For someone who doesn't get angry,
20:36 you're always angry.
20:37 And you're always shouting.
20:38 You don't have a voice.
20:40 Sometimes, I'm palpitating
20:42 before I take a scene.
20:43 Because you need to be at 150%
20:46 when you're acting.
20:47 So I said,
20:48 "I don't think you like me.
20:50 Sorry."
20:51 Yes.
20:52 It's hard.
20:53 Because you can't avoid
20:55 the character's emotions.
20:59 Yes.
21:00 Because I realized that
21:01 a few years ago,
21:03 during the pandemic,
21:04 when I was studying mental health,
21:06 I realized that
21:07 the brain doesn't know the difference
21:10 between imagination and reality.
21:12 So when you imagine
21:13 a beautiful photo,
21:15 your serotonin levels go up.
21:18 So when you imagine
21:21 you're angry,
21:22 you're shouting,
21:23 you're getting sick.
21:25 I was thinking that
21:26 I'm getting sick.
21:28 Oh no, sorry.
21:29 Yes.
21:30 Your chemical reaction is still the same,
21:33 whether it's just an imagination.
21:35 So for a long time,
21:37 I was carrying a lot of weight
21:40 that I wasn't aware of.
21:42 So does that mean now
21:43 that you're more careful
21:44 in choosing the roles?
21:46 Yes.
21:47 I don't want to be offered
21:49 a multiple personality disorder
21:52 that's a serious film.
21:54 I said, "Maybe I won't be back."
21:57 Wait.
21:59 Wait a minute.
22:02 So I need to reset my body.
22:06 Sometimes I feel like,
22:08 for example,
22:09 in Life Story,
22:10 it's a long story.
22:11 My best director, Joe Moan,
22:13 he cried for 30 years.
22:16 I cried for 3 days.
22:18 But when I woke up the next day,
22:20 I felt like I was being hit.
22:22 Everything was hurting.
22:23 It's like you're breaking up with your boyfriend
22:26 when you're filming.
22:27 Your body is so thin
22:29 that it's asking for rest
22:31 from sadness and anger.
22:34 I need to...
22:36 Now, I'm trying to meditate.
22:39 But sometimes,
22:40 when I feel like,
22:41 "Oh, my body is tired,"
22:43 I meditate for a while,
22:44 even for 5 minutes,
22:46 to reset my thoughts.
22:49 For example,
22:50 I'm on a beach,
22:51 the sun is setting,
22:52 it's beautiful.
22:53 Then I'm happy after.
22:55 We're honorable, bro.
22:57 At least your ability to reset is fast.
23:01 Yes.
23:02 I thought before it was too fast.
23:04 Like after cut,
23:05 I'll laugh.
23:06 Right?
23:07 I'm like that.
23:08 You thought so, right?
23:09 Sometimes,
23:10 Alex is like,
23:11 you're in a stand-up comedy,
23:12 your scene is heavy.
23:14 "Oh, I'm still here?"
23:15 Then suddenly, cut.
23:16 Right?
23:17 I thought that was it.
23:18 You're happy,
23:19 that's it.
23:20 But my tears are still flowing,
23:22 even though we're laughing.
23:24 So, it's like,
23:25 it's not recovering.
23:28 It's like,
23:29 you're still thinking about it,
23:30 you don't know.
23:31 I thought my brain was depressed,
23:32 I'm a depressed person.
23:34 Shucks, that's hard, right?
23:36 Yeah, because the next one is
23:37 "Through Night and Day,"
23:38 with Amanda.
23:39 I lost both of them.
23:41 I lost Amanda several times.
23:43 Because we edited it.
23:44 Of course, you're the director.
23:46 So, my brain saw
23:47 that I was dying many times.
23:50 Oh, yeah, that's hard.
23:53 Yeah.
23:54 So, after every film,
23:55 you need to debrief?
23:58 Yes, like that.
24:00 Or I talk to myself,
24:01 even if I'm just watching a video
24:03 on YouTube,
24:05 like a nervous system,
24:07 I'm just watching a video.
24:09 What is happening to me?
24:11 Like that.
24:12 Ah, okay, okay, I get it.
24:15 You know, I remember
24:16 you have a movie by Paolo Contis,
24:18 you went abroad.
24:20 Were you in Baguio?
24:22 Your father, Joey Marquez.
24:23 "Through Night and Day."
24:24 Yeah, "Through Night and Day."
24:25 I forgot the title.
24:26 But it was so heavy.
24:28 I watched it before I went to work.
24:31 And then,
24:32 because I went in the night, right?
24:34 When I went in, I said,
24:35 "Shucks."
24:37 Ian told me,
24:38 "Oh, are you okay?"
24:39 I said, "I'm so sad."
24:42 Right?
24:43 You're the ones watching it.
24:45 It lingers, right?
24:46 Yes.
24:47 We're always there.
24:49 Even if you say,
24:51 "Cut, we're eating."
24:53 Your sadness is still there.
24:55 Even my husband,
24:56 he just went in,
24:57 he said, "Why am I crying?"
24:58 I said, "Because it's making me cry."
25:00 That movie was amazing.
25:03 It took me a while to get over it.
25:05 Now I know that
25:06 there should be a reset.
25:08 Meditation is key.
25:09 Watch something funny like that.
25:11 Watch videos like that.
25:13 Okay, sure.
25:14 Now I know.
25:15 Wait, but Ale-
25:16 Can I call you Alex?
25:18 Because I was so shy earlier.
25:20 Ale-Sandra, Alex.
25:21 Okay, so can I call you Alex?
25:23 Yes.
25:24 Okay, so Alex,
25:26 you said earlier that
25:27 you had a period,
25:29 you started at 12,
25:30 but then you refrezed a bit
25:32 because you needed a love team,
25:34 but you were still too young
25:36 to have a love team.
25:37 But actually, now that I think about it,
25:38 you never had a love team.
25:41 Is that right?
25:42 Is that right?
25:43 Did you really write this?
25:49 Mr. Alvaro.
25:51 I feel like
25:57 when I was young,
25:58 my mom's stories were alive.
26:01 [music]
26:20 Mom, I hope I'll grow up too.
26:23 So that I'll have a child.
26:25 Maybe I'll be strong too.
26:28 [music]
26:35 You know what, my child?
26:37 You're brave.
26:38 You're braver than you think.
26:40 [music]
26:55 Remember this,
26:57 when you reach the island of the angels,
27:00 your wish will come true.
27:02 Can I wish that I'll be strong?
27:08 I'm looking for the island.
27:12 [music]
27:19 There it is.
27:21 [music]
27:30 Are you sure there's really an island?
27:32 I don't know.
27:34 Anton!
27:36 Wait!
27:41 Anton!
27:42 Hurry!
27:43 Sorry, Mom.
27:45 I'm still not strong enough.
27:49 This is the real island.
27:51 [music]
27:57 We're looking for it, Mom.
27:59 Of course,
28:00 we're the only ones left.
28:02 [music]
28:09 You said earlier that
28:11 you started at 12,
28:14 but you're refreezing a bit
28:16 because you need a love team,
28:18 but you're still too young to have one.
28:20 But now that I think about it,
28:22 you've never had a love team,
28:24 right?
28:25 Because I'm not good enough
28:27 for the standards of television.
28:29 I'm not good enough to be looked at.
28:31 I'm not courteous.
28:32 Who said that?
28:34 Let's fight.
28:35 All of them.
28:36 They all said, "You're not a star yet."
28:38 That's what they always say to me.
28:40 Is this serious?
28:41 Did they really say that to you?
28:42 Yes.
28:43 I've heard that I have a confident face.
28:46 I'm more of an oriental star.
28:49 Alex looks like a gangster.
28:52 Is this for real?
28:56 Okay, fine.
28:57 Then I realized that
28:58 I'm like this for a third party
29:00 who's been stolen.
29:02 That's all.
29:04 But I didn't have a love team.
29:06 I don't think I can do it.
29:08 [laughs]
29:10 I'll just be a member forever.
29:12 Why can't you do it?
29:14 Meaning the pressure of having to do projects
29:17 always with the same person?
29:19 Yes, maybe.
29:20 I won't be able to do it
29:22 because I have a restriction on intimacy.
29:24 I don't like kissing scenes.
29:26 I'm not saying that I never did it.
29:28 Of course, there are things that happened
29:30 that I can't know about.
29:33 But as much as possible,
29:35 I try to avoid them.
29:37 I'm on the side of love stories
29:40 that are deep
29:42 but don't have physical intimacy.
29:45 It's up to you.
29:46 It's simple.
29:47 Yes.
29:48 But aren't you glad that you can make that choice?
29:51 I'm sure a lot of them
29:53 feel like there is no choice to be made.
29:55 You have to say yes.
29:56 Yes.
29:57 I've talked to artists
29:59 who've been doing this for 6 hours.
30:02 Yesterday, at the love scene.
30:04 I understand you, Alex.
30:06 It's good.
30:07 [laughs]
30:08 Or sometimes,
30:09 you go to your friend's set
30:11 and you see that they're setting up the scene
30:13 that you know is expected.
30:15 You're like, "I have to go to that scene?"
30:17 "Are you okay?"
30:19 "I'm just high."
30:21 "You're crazy."
30:23 "I'm leaving."
30:24 [laughs]
30:26 But I'm glad that at an early age,
30:31 I was shouted at by the producer.
30:35 I don't like kissing scenes that are 3 years old.
30:39 I was shouted at for not being popular,
30:42 for being arrogant,
30:43 for being shy,
30:44 for not being able to do anything.
30:45 [sings]
30:47 So, it just hit me right away.
30:50 I was like, "Okay, I'll go through with it."
30:53 "I can do it."
30:54 "Just shout at me."
30:55 But I can't do it here.
30:57 I can't do it here.
30:58 Sorry.
30:59 Wow.
31:00 But it's good for you that you're able to
31:02 make that decision and stand by that decision.
31:05 Yes.
31:06 Yes.
31:07 As much as I can,
31:09 especially now that I have control over my films,
31:12 they'll say, "Alex, what's your limit?"
31:16 "As long as the screenshot is okay."
31:19 Because everyone can screenshot now, right?
31:21 They can be me.
31:23 And at the same time, I see, for example,
31:25 online platforms, right?
31:28 They're making collages of all the cases.
31:32 I'm like, "Oh, we're on the internet!"
31:35 You can't see anything.
31:37 It's everywhere.
31:38 It's not in the film anymore.
31:39 Yes, and then you just Google it and it'll come out.
31:44 Now, it's on your phone.
31:45 You can...
31:46 It's like, "Let's not go that far. Is it okay?"
31:50 So, it's okay if it's a small thing.
31:53 I hope it's not anymore.
31:54 But sometimes, it's okay if it's needed in the story.
31:56 It's like a copy.
31:57 And it's just one frame, right?
31:59 It's just one take.
32:01 It's just one take.
32:03 I'm still in the process of copying Papa P.
32:05 And then, there are some bones.
32:07 I'm taking the bones that are moving on my lips.
32:10 "Alex, don't do that!"
32:11 I'm like, "I'm sorry."
32:13 It's a good thing that the bird is still moving you.
32:18 It really loves me, I guess.
32:20 It accepts me, whatever I am.
32:22 That's the level of your friendship.
32:25 Alex, you mentioned earlier that when you started,
32:29 you were with your sister, Asunta.
32:32 Yes.
32:33 In the tapings.
32:34 Was it because you were ordered to be with her
32:36 or did you really want to be with her?
32:38 I wanted to be with her.
32:39 I was happy there.
32:40 I think that's why I became funny.
32:44 And Asunta is also a very funny person.
32:47 Because she grew up in Babulgam.
32:49 She was 9, I think.
32:51 Or 11.
32:52 I was 9, she was 11.
32:54 I think.
32:55 So, of course, I grew up with Michael V.
32:58 or Kiel Cassie.
32:59 Nawa-tawa.
33:00 I feel like I became a comedian deep inside.
33:02 Even though I wasn't with them,
33:04 I absorbed the fact that they were funny.
33:08 So, it's like,
33:10 you enjoyed being with her in the tapings.
33:13 Yes.
33:14 Super.
33:15 Super.
33:16 I wanted to be there for my sister.
33:19 I was happy there because they have a PlayStation.
33:22 Of course, when we were young, we were like that.
33:24 We were just like Kiel with a PlayStation and Michael V.
33:27 Like that.
33:28 Yes, and while she was working, you were there.
33:33 Yes, I was there.
33:35 You enjoyed it.
33:36 It's different from being at home.
33:38 I lacked talents.
33:39 Alex was the only one.
33:41 I was the only one who really stood out.
33:43 So, you can see on TV, I was so tiny.
33:46 But you were already an extra.
33:50 It was like that.
33:52 We were just like that.
33:54 Okay, and then when you told your mom that you wanted to be an actress,
33:59 was she okay with it?
34:00 No resistance?
34:01 No, she was like, "Go for it."
34:02 Because I was already working at GMA, right?
34:04 And then GMA, and then I was at the Artists' Center.
34:06 But I didn't get a band cap.
34:07 So, I was an extra.
34:10 Oh, okay.
34:11 That's why you auditioned for the other one.
34:13 Yes.
34:14 Yes.
34:15 Oh, okay.
34:16 And then, when you were both on TV,
34:18 was it hard?
34:19 Because there's a comparison.
34:20 Because, of course, your age gap was only a few years.
34:23 No.
34:24 Until now, there's still a gap.
34:25 Even if I watched a movie,
34:27 for example, the last one, "What If?"
34:29 The black house location.
34:32 Of course, it's a tourist destination now.
34:34 So, she booked it.
34:36 And then, we were like, "We'll follow you 4x4."
34:39 And then, her reply was,
34:40 "Why is La Zunta de Rossi in Bangka Punta?"
34:43 So, I was like, "Oh."
34:44 It's like, if I have an issue,
34:47 and now, she has an issue,
34:49 so, I really shouldn't have an issue.
34:50 There's really nothing.
34:51 I just laughed.
34:52 I'm just laughing.
34:53 And then, when I watch her old films,
34:55 her "Sampaiyat,"
34:56 I don't want to go there.
34:58 And then, when you go to an area like,
35:02 for example,
35:03 like OFW,
35:06 the ones that are like,
35:07 "They're watching TV,
35:08 and it's still La Zunta de Rossi."
35:09 Like that.
35:10 "They don't recognize you."
35:11 When you see that,
35:12 even if they don't recognize you,
35:13 just because of your face,
35:15 you'll still recognize them.
35:16 "La Zunta de Rossi."
35:17 You're not correcting them?
35:19 No, no.
35:21 It's okay?
35:22 It's okay.
35:23 "Can I take a picture of Ms. Azunta?"
35:25 "Yes, ma'am."
35:26 So, it's okay?
35:28 Until now, it's still like that.
35:30 Even if I go to a remote island,
35:32 and you feel like,
35:33 "Ah, there's no TV."
35:36 When you go in,
35:37 "Ah, Azunta de Rossi."
35:39 Then, you'll see the DVDs of the films.
35:41 You have a disclaimer right away.
35:48 In that part, yes.
35:50 Do you tell her
35:52 each time you're in a relationship with Azunta?
35:55 Sometimes.
35:56 When I remember,
35:57 sometimes we're together,
35:59 and someone approaches her,
36:01 and says,
36:02 "Ms. Alex,
36:04 can I take a picture of Azunta?"
36:06 Then, she says, "Okay."
36:08 Then, I'm like, "Jesus."
36:10 I said, "Maybe we're in a relationship with someone else."
36:13 How many years is your age gap?
36:16 One year.
36:17 Oh, so it's only one year.
36:19 That's why.
36:23 I'm like, "Mother,
36:25 on TV?"
36:26 I'm just kidding.
36:27 Oh, my. If she hears this episode,
36:30 we'll both be in trouble.
36:31 I'll just say, "Think about it."
36:34 Wait, until now,
36:37 you still see each other,
36:38 you still talk?
36:39 Yes.
36:40 Once a week,
36:42 or sometimes, if she's too busy,
36:43 once every two weeks,
36:44 she'll go to my house.
36:45 Because I need to bond with Fiore.
36:48 Because she's the one who knows me the best.
36:52 As her aunt and nanny.
36:54 Yes.
36:55 How old is Fiore?
36:57 She's 33.
36:58 She turned three on October 23.
37:00 Wow, she's already three years old.
37:02 That's cute.
37:03 So, do you enjoy being an aunt and nanny?
37:06 Yes, super.
37:09 And of course, it's a spoilsport for me.
37:11 I can see the toys.
37:12 I buy them before
37:14 everything.
37:15 But now, I buy them for a cheap price.
37:17 I buy them for 80 pesos.
37:19 Because she's a spoiled child.
37:21 I'm like, "Oh, I'll just buy this."
37:23 Because you don't notice it
37:26 after about two minutes.
37:28 Yes.
37:29 You save it for the future
37:31 when she's asking for bags,
37:33 clothes, and makeup.
37:34 Yes.
37:35 Yes.
37:36 But I enjoy it.
37:38 And maybe we're at that age
37:40 when our bodies are tired.
37:42 I'm not looking at her when she's tired.
37:43 I'm like, "I don't want to have a kid."
37:45 I'm like, "My own? Wait."
37:49 Actually, I'm asking you,
37:52 can you babysit,
37:53 for example, just the two of you?
37:55 Fiore?
37:56 As long as she doesn't cry.
37:57 Yes.
37:58 All day.
37:59 I can do that.
38:00 That's why Fiore is really attached to her mom.
38:02 Even now, when she's 33 years old,
38:04 because she's really terrible.
38:06 She can't say what she wants to say.
38:10 So, she'll shout.
38:11 Now, she can say whatever she wants to say.
38:14 She's calmer.
38:15 So, it's like,
38:17 she can communicate now.
38:19 Yes.
38:20 She gets it.
38:21 Before, when you kissed her,
38:23 she'd be like, "Eee!"
38:24 She'd cry.
38:26 I was like, "What's that?"
38:27 Now, when you kiss her,
38:28 she's like, "Okay."
38:29 "Okay."
38:31 "She's my friend now."
38:32 "She's really like me."
38:35 You have an understanding now.
38:40 Yes.
38:41 My mom said that when I was young,
38:42 I was born in the UK.
38:44 Where?
38:45 In the UK.
38:46 England.
38:47 Okay.
38:48 So, I look different compared to other babies.
38:51 Of course, I have a Filipino look.
38:53 And I have blonde hair.
38:54 Because it's like,
38:55 it's like a bald head.
38:56 So, people really make fun of me.
38:59 Even though, when I'm in the airplane,
39:01 the flight attendants,
39:02 they make fun of me.
39:03 Then, I really say,
39:05 "Leave the little girl alone."
39:07 I copy what my dad says.
39:10 "Just leave her alone."
39:12 I'm her.
39:13 I'm her.
39:14 I can imagine.
39:17 My mom would laugh at me.
39:19 She'd say,
39:20 "I was really spoiled when I was young."
39:22 "I wanted to see Fiore."
39:24 "She's the most annoying."
39:26 "Whenever she sees me, she's like, 'Ahh!'"
39:28 "She's like, 'Ahh!'"
39:30 "She's tiring after a while."
39:32 Yes.
39:33 When you make a movie,
39:35 from her perspective,
39:36 the camera,
39:37 all the people who come close to you,
39:38 I want to kiss them.
39:39 "You're so annoying."
39:41 Very, very understandable.
39:43 It's good that Ninang gets it.
39:45 Yes.
39:46 She listens to me.
39:48 Do you think she has an artistic gene?
39:52 I see her as a singer.
39:54 Ah, she has a beautiful voice.
39:55 Yes.
39:56 I said, "Oh!"
39:57 Because, I mean,
39:58 she's a good singer.
40:00 And her voice is higher than mine.
40:03 So, I see her voice is higher,
40:05 but she's still a todo.
40:07 She's always on the tone.
40:09 I said, "Oh, we have a singer in the family."
40:11 "Like a Mariah Carey."
40:13 "She can reach everything that we can't."
40:16 So, it's like a different experience
40:20 from her concert experience,
40:22 from your filmmaking,
40:23 from her concert.
40:24 Yes.
40:25 Yes.
40:26 That's how it is.
40:27 I hope she likes it.
40:28 But even if she doesn't,
40:29 don't.
40:30 You said, Alex,
40:32 that you've been in the industry
40:34 for the longest time.
40:35 Yes, in the industry.
40:36 At this point,
40:37 would you say that you're still
40:38 very much in love
40:39 with the art of filmmaking?
40:40 Yes.
40:41 The art of filmmaking, for sure.
40:43 I really love it.
40:44 The non-art of show business.
40:46 Just kidding.
40:47 The show part of the business,
40:49 I really don't like.
40:50 Meaning,
40:52 the gossip,
40:54 or, you know,
40:55 the...
40:56 Gossips,
40:57 or how we sometimes
40:58 trap each other
40:59 because one is more famous,
41:00 because one is more famous,
41:01 because one is more famous,
41:02 and the other is more important.
41:03 One is more important than the other.
41:04 One is more important than the other.
41:05 This is the budget of one,
41:06 and the other is just the other.
41:07 There's 500,000 pesos a day.
41:08 There's 500,000 pesos a day.
41:09 This is not fair.
41:10 This is not fair.
41:11 This is not fair.
41:12 Yes, of course.
41:13 You're always on set,
41:14 and you feel the disparity,
41:15 and you feel the disparity,
41:16 and you feel the disparity,
41:17 right?
41:18 Yes.
41:19 Yes.
41:20 But you can also see
41:21 the work's value.
41:22 Like,
41:23 "This is the only thing
41:24 I can make.
41:25 This is the only thing I can make.
41:26 This is replaceable.
41:27 This is replaceable.
41:28 If it's not available,
41:29 I can make another one."
41:30 But still,
41:32 the showbiz part,
41:33 the part where you're nice,
41:34 the part where you're nice,
41:35 and when you talk,
41:36 you're always home,
41:37 you're always home,
41:38 and that's always painful for me.
41:39 and that's always painful for me.
41:40 Every two weeks,
41:41 I have a showbiz schedule.
41:42 I have a showbiz schedule.
41:43 I have a showbiz schedule.
41:44 I always have one.
41:45 I always have one.
41:46 I always have one.
41:47 This is my last one.
41:48 I always have one.
41:49 This is my last one.
41:50 This is my last one.
41:51 I promise.
41:52 This is it.
41:53 Every two weeks?
41:54 Actually,
41:55 I want to ask you,
41:56 in 25 years,
41:57 was there ever a time
41:58 that you seriously considered
41:59 quitting showbiz?
42:00 was there ever a time
42:01 that you seriously considered quitting showbiz?
42:02 I'm not sure if I would've done it.
