Today 20th of October is the first telecast of one of many FPJ movies after ABS-CBN acquired the exclusive rights to the whole movie library of the late Action star icon Fernando Poe Jr.Even I watched his movie again and again, he still amazed me and I’m sad because of his untimely death it really affects the movie industry in the Philippines.
Many Filipinos believe he won the last presidential election in the Philippines and many are also saying he was cheated.
He appeared in more than 200 films, including several based on true stories, and won the Philippine equivalent of the Academy Award four times. Over the course of his five-decade career, Poe directed nine movies and ran several production companies.
