"
Fresh from 'Segunda Mano' sinabihan na agad ako na I'm gonna do another
project with Star Cinema. Hindi ko naman ini-expect it's for MMFF again
kaya parang nostalgic 'yung experience," narrated Dingdong. "
Star
Cinema gave me a very good experience sa first project ko with them kaya
nung nalaman ko na may isa pa, syempre natuwa ako and I was looking
forward sa new memories na mabi-build ko doing 'One More Try' na true
enough naman ay isa namang pelikulang talagang hinding-hindi ko
malilimutan."
Under the direction of award-winning director Ruel S. Bayani, "One More
Try" features a modern family drama about a mother's immeasurable love
to her son who is dying. In the story, Dingdong will play the character
of Edward, a dedicated husband to Jacq (Angelica Panganiban), whose
courage and character will be tested when her old friend Grace (Angel
Locsin) re-enters his life with their son who is desperately in need of
his father's help.
According to Dingdong, aside from the unique beauty of the plot of "One
More Try," he immediately accepted offer because of the top caliber
actors who are part of it, including former Kapuso star Angel.
"First time ko nakasama si Angel. Kasi kahit na noong nasa GMA pa siya,
hindi kami nagkaron ng pagkakataon na magkatrabaho. And although si
Angelica nakasama ko na sa 'Segunda Mano' at si Zanjoe (Marudo) sa
'Kimmy Dora,' first time namin magsama-samang apat sa iisang pelikula,"
said Dingdong who revealed that he learned so much while doing the film.
"Everyday I learn so many things from different people--kung papano
sila sa set, kung gaano ka sila kaprofessional towards their work, how
much they love their work, and how to make an awesome product while
you’re having fun."
Dingdong is also proud of the extraordinary and courageous plot of "One
More Try." He said, "Kung gaano siya kabilis mag-evolve as a story,
ganoon din siguro kabilis ang magiging impact niya sa audience. Dahil sa
pagkakaron ng isang bata eventually it turned out to be more of a
family drama film than an adult type of movie na alam naman natin na
karamihan nang pinalabas this year ay may ganoong tema."
"Natutunan ko na minsan kasi may mga choices ka na gagawin na maaaring
hindi tama sa nakararami pero para sa 'yo morally and spiritually ay
para sa ikabubuti ng taong mahal mo," said the actor. "In the film, they
will realize na beyond the conflicts of relationships, ultimately ay
uuwi ka pa rin sa family mo which is perfect para sa isang film festival
dahil panahon ang Pasko kung kelan nagsasama-sama ang mga pamilya."
Aside from the first team-up of Angel, Angelica, Zanjoe and Dingdong,
also featured in “One More Try” are Carmina Villaroel, Agot Isidro,
Edward Mendez, and Ms. Gina Pareño.
Experience love that makes you do the impossible and accept the
unacceptable, don't miss "One More Try," which will be shown on cinemas
nationwide starting December 25.
