1st public exposure: via a Closeup commercial in 1980, w/c led to him
being a moviestar

Leading
Ladies: almost all leading actress in the 80's and early
90's been paired with him, be it major stars and up and coming stars. his most famous pairing was with Sharon Cuneta their
loveteam captivated millions of moviegoers back then, I was one of them.
Directors: he was also handled by the greatest directors like brocka,bernal,diaz-abaya,rono,garcia. they honed his acting skills
eventually.
Movie Awards: He was Best Actor(Urian),Best Supporting Actor
(Urian,Star,Famas),numerous
citations from award critics. became Mr.RP Movies and many more.
Currently: he's
having a peaceful and intrigued free life in California
and I think he's contented and do not desire to be back in showbiz again. that explains his rejection of many film offers
and sitcoms that could have generated him millions after qutting showbiz
in 1995. I guess having a peaceful life is something he craves and to him it is priceless. But I think he's still willing to accept a movie offer
provided it'll be filmed in the US.
