i just wonder why 'LARUANG APOY' is not included in Alma Moreno's filmography? she did a good job in a dual role as vic vargas' other woman & their daughter.
ReplyDeletesa movie na malikot...magaling din siya doon.....sa lahat ng mga movies niya na kung saan same ang plot na mahirap siya ginamit katawan niya para yumaman..itong "MALIKOT" na movie ni alma ang gusto ko sa lahat.

ReplyDeleteI believe she was once the reigning Bold Queen of her time.Adding a face of innocence' in her makes her one of The Most Beautiful Actresses of Phil.Cinema.She must have been a great actress too.Sana binigyan lang sya ng chance.I actually saw her film Mrs.Eva Fonda 16 at dun sa breakdown scene nya mag isa sa theater stage...Ang Galing-galing nya dun!She shoud've won an acting trophy for that scene.Siguro hindi lang talaga sys lucky sa mga acting trophies..Anyway,I'm really happy for her new achievement sa a Public Servant(Councilor)of Paranaque City.I wish her more power!Goodluck Ms.Alma and always stay Beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteNo offense meant to Ms.Lorna Tolentino.I really admire her too.She is one of the best Actresses this country has today!But the fact is between the 70's and the 80's it was really Alma Moreno who reigned stardom!REal Score yan.Lorna on the other hand really gained talents and later on emerged as a very good actress.Alma prceeded to become a public servant.And i love them both for that!Both Actresses are dear to me as i was looking forward growing up with such love ly Actresses.I think i've said enough.Goodluck to both of them.Beauty is Timeless.'
