00:00At the end of the program, we will present the winner of the award.

00:04Let's go!

00:05An award for the winner of the award.

00:13I was lucky to get a bottle of alcohol.

00:17It's called, HeHe.

00:19And this one is called, HaHa.

00:21HeHe, HaHa, HeHe, HaHa, HeHe, HaHa.

00:23Where is it?

00:24Where is it?

00:25Where is it?

00:26Don't take it!

00:27Don't take it, Antonio.

00:28I'm not kidding.

00:29I don't want to, I don't want to.

00:31Dito bro, I'm texting you and you're not answering.

00:35I won't be a guest here if you don't answer me.

00:38I've been texting you for a long time and you're not answering me.

00:40I thought the hoarder was already dead.

00:43But it's you, Marian.

00:46I need to buy a lot of things for Christmas.

00:48I'm going to buy a lot of gifts.

00:50All the distributors here in Manila, here in the Philippines,

00:53said that you already bought everything.

00:55What's wrong with you?

00:56John, wait.

01:00Don't be afraid, don't be afraid.

01:02You're so good at acting.

01:03It's you who's the hoarder.

01:05All the distributors in the Philippines said that you already bought everything.

01:08What's wrong with you?

01:09You're making me look like General Luna.

01:13Here.

01:14Here, here.

01:15Here, here, here.

01:17Answer me.

01:18Okay.

01:20Labubu or freedom?

01:22Country or yourself?

01:23Choose!

01:24Oh, it's so hard.

01:26Good afternoon, Philippines and the whole world!

01:29Welcome, John Arcea!

01:34Thank you so much.

01:37Wow.

01:38It's so tiring and I'm so nervous to have a scene with John Arcea.

01:43Please.

01:44Thank you so much, Cecil, for lending me your labubus.

01:49Oh, my.

01:51How are you?

01:52I'm good, Uncle Boy.

01:54When you're called as one of the best actors in our country,

02:00what does that mean to you?

02:06I don't know.

02:07I don't know how to answer what you're telling me right now, Uncle Boy.

02:10I'll prove it to you.

02:11And you know the truth.

02:13Well, maybe because of the accolades, the achievements, the awards,

02:17if that's what you're gauging,

02:20somehow, like for example,

02:22I got the Volpe Cup for all the actors here in Southeast Asia.

02:27The first in Southeast Asia.

02:29And I beat Benedict Cumberbatch, Antonio Banderas, Tim Roth.

02:36So, somehow,

02:40even though it's embarrassing to brag,

02:44I think it's true.

02:46I think I'm doing the right thing.

02:48Yes, that's right.

02:50You've been through a lot of styles.

02:53And the roles you played are very diverse.

02:57Both in theater, television, and movies.

03:00How is that?

03:01Do you stick to a style?

03:03Do you stick to a process?

03:05How do you attack roles?

03:07The point is, Uncle Boy,

03:09I realized, and you will realize,

03:12that you can create yourself.

03:15All of this is just a guideline.

03:17All of what you've read about Stanislavski,

03:20Meisner,

03:22all of them,

03:23experience that as a human being.

03:26For example, let's go to the famous line of De Niro.

03:29You're talking to me.

03:30In Tagalog,

03:31Are you talking to me?

03:32In different emotions,

03:34the focus is on your experience.

03:36Yes.

03:37I mean, give me different emotions

03:39while talking to the camera and saying,

03:41Are you talking to me?

03:43How would you do it?

03:44Are you talking to me?

03:51Are you talking to me?!

04:06Are you talking to me?

04:10Are you talking to me?!

04:14I don't know what to do.

04:26Are you talking to me?

04:29Wow!

04:35That was so good.

04:37How did you do that?

04:40Are you talking to me?

04:42That was so good.

04:45Yeah, it comes. You're seasoned.

04:49As Tom Hanks said, and this is a direct quote,

04:53I drown in the eyes of my co-actor.

04:56Your stimulus usually comes from your scene.

05:01What do you do when you're not given what you're supposed to be given as an actor?

05:08There are two things.

05:11It's either you're the one giving, because that's what the story needs,

05:15or you're the one pulling, because that's what the story needs.

05:19Sometimes you're the one bringing a sequence or a scene because it's all about you.

05:25But if the scene is all about the other person,

05:28and you should be aware of that as an actor,

05:30that this scene is about him and not about you.

05:32So you should be getting something from your co-actor.

05:34But if it's about something else, you should be giving something to your co-actor.

05:38Now, if I need to get something from my co-actor that I don't see in him,

05:44I will feed him what he needs so that he can give it to me.

05:49In a way, sometimes I'm doing a workshop without my co-actor knowing it.

05:54I'm sorry to tell you.

05:56While you're doing the scene?

05:58While I'm doing the scene, I'm doing a workshop because I also teach acting.

06:01Okay, John. I can't give it to you because I'm scared.

06:05How will you do it? You're just nervous.

06:08I'm not comfortable because you're John.

06:11And we have a scene and I can't give it to you.

06:14Do it.

06:16I'll just look at him and make him feel that everything is alright.

06:19Then suddenly I will tell him,

06:21I've been waiting for you for so long.

06:23Why did you come now? You should've come yesterday.

06:25You should've come yesterday.

06:29Right?

06:31Yes. Thank you.

06:34Are you okay?

06:36Are you angry?

06:38Well, if the scene is angry, I will make him feel it from the start.

06:43Everything is okay.

06:45But I've been waiting for you since yesterday!

06:48You didn't come!

06:52I'm sorry.

06:53Cut. I can't do it.

06:57I can't do it.

06:59Do you consider General Luna as a pivot?

07:03I mean, a kind of pivot in your career?

07:08To a bigger plane, yes.

07:10But the first one was in theater when I did a lot of musicals with Ryan and Biab.

07:19In theater, I felt like, wow!

07:21I'm doing a musical as a lead performer.

07:25That's a lot.

07:27El Filibusterismo, No Limit Angere.

07:30Imagine, Regine Velasquez became my leading lady, my partner in No Limit Angere.

07:39And then, when Rizal did it, I was the main.

07:44I was the main in all of them.

07:46That's why when I had co-alternates, I was the main.

07:48So, thank you.

07:50So, for me, wow!

07:53I'm here. I did it.

07:56I used to sing in amateur contests in Baler.

08:00Really? You did amateur contests?

08:03Yes, I was an amateur.

08:05My sister, Maribic, always said,

08:07Boy, there's an amateur contest here in Barangay One. Come!

08:10Boy, there's an amateur contest in Barangay Bahamin. Let's go!

08:13And you won?

08:15I was always first.

08:16What was the winning song?

08:18Usually, Kapalaran. That was the time of Rico J. Puno.

08:22Until my adolescent age, when I was 13, my vocal capacity changed.

08:35My voice box changed.

08:39So, for the first time, my voice cracked.

08:44I was 13 or 12 years old.

08:46You were singing Kapalaran?

08:48I was singing Kapalaran.

08:50And from then on, I had stage fright for 13 years.

08:54I couldn't sing on stage.

08:56That's when I shifted to acting.

08:58Oh, my God!

09:00That's when I became a trauma in singing.

09:03And I stopped singing.

09:05And for 13 years, I couldn't perform on stage to sing alone.

09:10I was hearing. I needed a duet.

09:12So, I became a choir assistant to a choir master in Baler Aurora.

09:17Because I couldn't sing anymore.

09:19I shifted now, since I know I have a passion for singing and performance, to acting.

09:25What an inspiring story!

09:27Let's do fast talk.

09:32Let's do fast talk.

09:34Just for fun, let's do this.

09:36You can take on any character, in different characters, John.

09:40My God!

09:42You can do anything, right?

09:44Let's do fast talk.

09:46John, talent or attitude?

09:49Attitude?

09:51Good or hardworking?

09:53Hardworking.

09:55Looks or charisma?

09:57Charisma.

09:59Brave or brave?

10:01Brave.

10:03Quiet or loud?

10:05Quiet.

10:07Stubborn or stubborn?

10:09Stubborn.

10:19Both!

10:49Not guilty.

10:53Guilty.

10:55What title would you give, if you did a movie?

11:00John Rosilio.

11:02What genre of film is this?

11:05Uh, podemos chamartenar una pelicula.

11:08Dramedy. Dramedy.

11:09John, is that lights on or lights off?

11:12On.

11:13Happiness or chocolates?

11:15Happiness.

11:16Best time for happiness?

11:18All the time.

11:20You'll give yourself an award.

11:22You're the best...

11:25I am the best John Arcelia that I can be.

11:31We've been talking about John's process as an artist for a while now.

11:35I'm really interested to find out

11:37if you were to name three of the best actresses

11:42and three of the best actors in today's generation of actors.

11:47Who are they and why?

11:49The answer to the return of Fast Talk with Boy Abundant.

11:55We're back on the show with John Arcelia.

11:59You will be part of Lolob.

12:01Yes.

12:01Tell us what you can.

12:03I'm going to be, I think, the main villain.

12:06Yes.

12:06Interesting.

12:07Exciting.

12:08My name is Julio Figueroa.

12:10I'm a wealthy businessman

12:12with legal and illegal businesses.

12:15But somehow, I'm a philanthropist.

12:21I like to help, but I don't like to be in the limelight.

12:25That's my character.

12:26I'm a bit mysterious.

12:28You've worked with Ruru in the past.

12:30In Encantadia.

12:31Correct.

12:31Even live in Encantadia!

12:33Even live in Encantadia.

12:35We'll wait and see.

12:39Okay, let's go to my question.

12:42Now, the actors of this generation.

12:44Three women and three men.

12:46Why?

12:46Who are your choices?

12:47Actually, I'm reluctant to say just three.

12:50Because there are so many.

12:51Right.

12:52There are so many great actors today, Uncle Boy.

12:54But for me, the best actress is Janine Gutierrez.

13:01You know, she's a different kind.

13:03She's so natural.

13:04Also, Hugot is different.

13:08Then, Gleiza de Castro.

13:14You know, I always ask Andi Eigenman

13:16why he stopped acting.

13:18He's so smart.

13:19Okay.

13:20Yes.

13:20And Andrea Brillantes.

13:25She's a young girl, but she's great.

13:27She comes from the inside.

13:28As for the male actor,

13:30Well, you know, I've worked with him before.

13:36I've been affected by Dennis Trillo since I was a kid.

13:42When he made a movie with Judy Ann Santos,

13:46but he's not a new actor,

13:50he's from this generation.

13:52I noticed that he's very subdued and underacting,

13:56but he's powerful.

13:58So, I noticed him when he was just starting out.

14:01And now, you can see him there.

14:03He's great.

14:04Kyle Echari.

14:07He's good.

14:08Kyle Echari.

14:09Well, of course, Ruro Madrid is very committed.

14:12Yes.

14:14He's very committed to his craft.

14:16So, I think that's one of the reasons

14:19why an actor is good.

14:21Commitment, right?

14:21Commitment, yes.

14:22And you'll know.

14:23You'll know the artist who's committed to the material.

14:26Yes.

14:26Committed to his work.

14:27Yes.

14:28Right?

14:29You can smell that.

14:30Yes, yes.

14:32Who else?

14:33Actually, there's a lot.

14:34But, in the meantime,

14:36that's the first question that came to my mind.

14:38This is the last question.

14:39But, this is very controversial.

14:42There are people who say,

14:45why do some artists enter politics?

14:49Why don't they just let non-artists rule?

14:52Where do you stand when some people say

14:56that artists have no right to enter public service,

15:01to enter politics?

15:27Kasi, kung para lang yan sa pera,

15:29mali ka agad.

15:30Kasi, ang politika,

15:32o ang pagiging opisyal ng bayan,

15:35ay para maglingkod.

15:37Pag yumaman ka daw na nasa politika ka

15:39at nasa gobyerno,

15:40hindi ka naglilingkod.

15:42Dapat malinaw sa'yo yan.

15:44So, kay artista ka o hindi ka artista,

15:46lalo na kung artista ka,

15:48na gano'n nga'ng sinasabi sa'yo,

15:51mas idefine mo sa sarili mo

15:53kung totoo bang paglilingkod

15:55ang iyong gusto mangyari,

15:56kung bakit ka nandyan.

15:58Kung hindi rin lang,

15:58wag mo nang ituloy.

15:59Sumagay ba sa'yong isipan

16:01na pumasok sa politika?

16:03Nakarating ako sa edad na ito

16:05na inanggihan ko lahat ng invitation sa akin.

16:08Pero nakatanggap ka ng mga invitation?

16:10Nakatanggap ako.

16:12Tumakbo pa nga ako,

16:13tatakbo pa nga dapat ako

16:14ng konseyhal sa Paranaque.

16:16Nasave ako dun sa crisis

16:19na nag-decisionan ko yan

16:20dahil naawa lang ako

16:21dun sa nagpipilit sa akin

16:23na congressman na sumama ako.

16:25Buti na lang,

16:26meron akong program dun sa TV

16:28na hindi ako pala pwedeng mag-campaign

16:32na hindi ako...

16:33Nahabang ikaw nasa telebisyon.

16:38yung mga eksena ko

16:40at pag binura yun,

16:41sira yung buong kwento.

16:43So, I was saved by that

16:46particular incident in my life.

16:48It wasn't meant.

16:48So, I was so thankful

16:50kasi talagang ayoko,

16:51ayoko ng politika.

16:53Nakarating ako sa edad na ito,

16:54na napanindigan ko yan.

16:56At kung ako man

16:57ay magkakainterest sa politika ngayon,

16:59wala na akong stamina

17:00sa edad kong ito

17:01kasi 28 years old dawi.
