"I have a confession to make, the first time I saw you, hindi kita gusto. Parang may nagsasabi na isa kang malaking sakit sa ulo."

"Naniniwala ako na kung may gusto kang sabihin, dapat sabihin mo na."

"Happy Valentine's day sir! Next year, happy anniversary na yan ha."

"Sana balang araw ma-realize mo na I deserve this kind of love."

"But I also have to admit that even then, you have something special in you. You have that spirit."

"Sir please. You belong to me."

"If you insist, how can I resist?"

"Lalo mo akong pinahanga nung pinakita mo ang mundo mo. You are by far the bravest girl I've ever met."

"Sabi nga nila diba give love on Christmas day sir so give me love sir. Pero kung wala talaga, how do I unlove you?"

"Para sa akin, you don't need to look like Mama Mary for me to fall in love with you. I don't want to unlove you because I love you."

"More than three years and I thought we were good. Hindi ko lang alam kung bakit, kung pano, kung pano nag-simula. Ano ang nangyari sa ating dalawa?"

"I will do everything it takes to bring you back. I will never lose hope that we will have our second chance."

"Yun yung operative word. Tapos na yun. The end."

"There was a time pala na sabi niya na muntik na niya tayong balikan pero natatakot daw siya na hindi na natin siya tanggapin."

"I've always love how food preserves a memory."

"Bakit nga ba? Kasi ang tanga tanga mo. Apat na taon, wala ka man lang ginawa. Hindi mo man lang tinawagan. Hindi mo man lang sinulatan. Ma-pride ka kasi. Ang yabang mo!"

"Ang bagal mo kasi. Naunahan ka na. May iba na. May iba na."

"Kailangan na kitang idelete sa buhay ko."

"But that's it diba? She's just your ex."

"What you don't know won't hurt you."

"Ayoko matulad sa mga magulang ko na hindi nagkabalikan dahil lang sa pride."

"It's complicated. It's a recipe for disaster."

"No worries my friend. From now on, PSP. Past is past."

"Kung talagang mahal mo ako, dapat sinundan mo ako."

"Kung talagang mahal mo ako, dapat hindi mo ako iniwan."

"And I regret that everyday."

"Are you flirting with me?"

"Do you want me to?"

"Do we still have a second chance? Naniniwala ka rin ba na our love story deserves a better ending?"

"I deserve an explanation. I need an acceptable reason."
...

"Dahil trinabaho ko yun. Dahil pinagpuyatan ko yan. I invested my time."

"Kailangan mong mahalam kung bakit isang umaga, nagbago ang lahat. Bakit wala na siya. Bakit mag-isa ka nalang. Kailangan mo ng dahilan diba?"

"Anong karapatan mong hingin ang isang bagay na pinagdamot mong ibigay? I deserved an explanation. I deserved an acceptable reason."

"I almost died and everyday, I wish I'm dead."

"I was beginning to see my father in you. Talunan, mababa ang pangarap. Paano ko sasabihin sa'yo na unti-unti ng nawawala ang tiwala ko sa'yo."

"Dahil nung iniwan mo si Marco, binigyan mo siya ng karapatan na mag-mahal ng iba."

"Bakit ganun? Ang tanga-tanga natin."

"Uma-umaga sinasampal ko ang sarili ko. Sabi ko 'Ginny, edukada ka naman. May master's degree ka nga sa Barcelona eh. Hindi ka pinag-aral ng magulang ko para magpakatanga sa isang lalaki.'"

"Yang hope na yan. Lason yan. Parang drugs na nakaka-adik."

"Kung wala kasi nun, ang sakit. Sobrang sakit."

"Adik ka na naman sa pag-asa eh. Try mo na kaya lumaklak ng realidad?"

"Marco, there are three words I've been wanting to say to you for five years. I am sorry. I'm sorry dahil hindi ko kinaya na sabihin sa'yo ang totoo. Im sorry dahil iniwan kita. I'm sorry na nasaktan kita. I'm sorry kasi natakot ako. Im sorry for giving up on us."

"Sorry din kasi hindi ko nakita ang mga takot mo. Tsaka mga pangangailangan mo."

"Marco, what if ready na ko sa buhay na gusto mo? Ready na ako Marco. Ready na ako for you."

"I loved him first."

"And you let go of your chance."

"I saw it his eyes. I felt it when he touched me."

"Ours began in a most unexciting way, as friends. Now, our love may be quiet and boring but it is sure. With the right amount of trust and love, and even an allowance for mistake. I love him Ginny and in love, there is no fear."

"I was willing to wait... Kaya lang napagod ako. Napagod ang puso ko na maghintay, magtanong, magalit."

"Closure."

"Para maging buo tayo ulit."

Piolo Pascual and Toni Gonzaga Grace US Premiere of Starting Over Again

Fresh from a recent Manila premiere that was packed with fans and a record-breaking opening day gross of P25 million, the Philippines’s “Ultimate Heartthrob” Piolo Pascual and actress-singer-host Toni Gonzaga, one of the hottest female triple threats in Philippine showbiz today, will fly almost 8,000 miles to meet their fans in the San Francisco Bay Area for the U.S. premiere of the romantic comedy, Starting Over Again.

The premiere, a Valentine’s Day offering from ABS-CBN Star Cinema and TFC@TheMovies, is set for February 15, Saturday, with 1:00pm and 6:30pm screenings at historic Fox Theatre in Redwood City.

Starting Over Again has generated huge buzz because of the chemistry of the two lead stars and the numerous positive reviews by critics, bloggers and fans who are raving over the brilliantly directed movie by the award-winning Olivia M. Lamasan, director of international Filipino blockbuster films from Star Cinema like Milan, In My Life, In the Name of Love and The Mistress, to name a few.  The screenplay was by Carmi Raymundo who wrote the recent Kim Chiu-Xian Lim blockbuster, Bride for Rent and other hits like My Amnesia Girl and It Takes A Man and a Woman.

“It’s been a while since we’ve held a movie premiere here in the U.S. and we thought that bringing the much anticipated first big screen collaboration of two of the industry’s biggest stars, one of the most successful Filipina directors of all time, and one screenwriter who has been on a blockbuster roll would make for an exciting Valentine’s Day gift to thousands of fans who want to see the movie plus Piolo and Toni in person,” said John-D Lazatin, ABS-CBN Global Head of Theatricals.

Indeed, there are great expectations for Starting Over Again from the four stellar heavyweights but they deliver in this movie.  Toni plays Ginny – bubbly, brilliant and driven – who, as a student in Architecture romantically pursues Marco (Piolo), a professor.  Eyebrows may be raised but the two genuinely fall in love, until one day, Ginny left for no apparent reason, breaking Marco’s heart into a thousand pieces.  Years later, their paths cross again: Ginny has the successful career that she dreamed of while Marco is now a chef… with a new ladylove in Patty (played by the exquisite Iza Calzado).  Seems like they are all happy.  But wait… Ginny wants Marco back. The journey of second chances begin with Ginny chasing Marco again.  But will this have a happy ending or will it end again in heartbreak?

Joining Piolo, Toni and Iza in this not-your-usual romantic comedy are young but amazing talents Joross Gamboa, Bryan Santos, Edgar Allan Guzman, Cai Cortez and Beauty.

Bea Alonzo and Ronaldo Valdez Have Love Scenes in 'The Mistress'

Star Cinema offers another controversial love story with the upcoming movie The Mistress starring Bea Alonzo and John Lloyd Cruz in celebration of their 10th anniversary as a love team.

In this movie, Bea Alonzo will be at her bravest and most daring role yet. Playing the title role as the mistress named Sari, the movie required Bea to have kissing and love scenes with an older man (Rico) played by veteran actor Ronaldo Valdez.

Ronaldo Valdez, 64, who once played Bea Alonzo's father in the hit remake I Love Betty La Fea, revealed that he and Bea will have love scenes in the movie.

“Nung mabasa ko ‘yung script at malaman ko ‘yung role ko bilang si Rico ang mature benefactor ni Sari (Bea), na-excite ako kaya pumayag agad ako. Kinilig ako kasi it’s a love story of two people na nagkataon ‘yung isa younger at ‘yung isa older tapos at nagkataon din na meron nang pamilya si Rico.”

According to the highly-acclaimed actor, the movie is a great challenge for him since it's not only a typical father that he is portraying but Bea Alonzo's lover and John Lloyd's rival. He also added that he tried to be at ease with Bea.

“Dahil baka mailang siya I tried my best to be ease with her. Ayokong isipin niya na nagte-take advantage ako. Well its work, but then again syempre kailangan ng preparations lalo na at may love scenes.”

Meanwhile, John Lloyd Cruz will be playing JD, Sari's suitor. In the movie, Bea and John Lloyd's paths will cross in an unexpected circumstance, that is when Sari is already committed to a married man, Rico (Ronaldo Valdez).

Aside from Bea, John Lloyd and Ronaldo, The Mistress also stars multi-awarded actress Hilda Koronel who will play Regina, Rico's understanding wife. This will be Ms. Hilda's first movie after six years in hiatus and the reason she said yes to the project is not just that she loved the script the first time she had read it.

“It’s a perfect project–it’s from Star Cinema, I have direk Olive, and I’m working with John Lloyd, Bea, and Ronald. When you have all these people, you just can’t say no!”

Under the direction of acclaimed director Olivia Lamasan, The Mistress will hit Philippine theaters this September 12, 2012.
