VINCE Rillon is back with Vivamax this year in the mini-series “Erotica Manila” and in the movie “Boso Dos”. Last year, he did several movies like “Siklo”, “Sisid”, “Kaliwaan”, “Virgin Forest”, “Pusoy”, “Tubero” and “Resbak” for which he won the best actor award at 19th Asian Filmfest in Rome.

“I was lucky to be so busy with so many projects last year,” he says. “And now, maganda rin ang pasok ng bagong taon dahil I have two new projects to be shown agad. In ‘Erotica Manila’, I appear with Mercedes Cabral in the episode about showbusiness. She plays an aging actress at ako ‘yung production assistant sa shooting who she seduced.”

What about in “Boso Dos”, what is his role? “Very dark ang character ko, si Badong, kasi I play a drug trafficker. I have a gunmoll girlfriend, si Georgina, played by newcomer Amor Lapus, but when I meet Micaella Raz, I also fall in love with her. Hindi ko alam, isa pala siyang undercover agent whose mission is to spy on me and our syndicate.”

He has love scenes with both Amor and Micaella in “Boso Dos”. How was it? “Usually, maingat ako sa mga nagiging kapartner ko sa love scenes. Kailangan kasi, maiparamdam mo sa harap ng kamera na libog na libog ka, pero dapat alalay ka lang sa kapareha mo. Si Amor Lapus, bago lang siya. First time niya, makipag-love scene, so tinanong niya ako, paano ‘yung bedscene? Sabi ko, wala ka bang jowa, gawin mo lang kung anong ginagawa nyo. Wala raw, so inalalayan ko siya. Si Micaela naman, parang kapatid ko na ‘yan kaya cool lang kami sa eksena.”

He has made love to all the Raz sisters: Angela in “Tubero”, Stefanie in “L” and Micaella in “Boso Dos”? How is it working with them? Who’s the best among the three?

“Lahat naman sila, sexy at may kanya-kanyang galing. They’re all good sa acting, so i cannot mention just one. Maski sa love scene, mahihirapan akong mamili, kasi I felt comfortable with all of them. Magaan sila lahat na katrabaho at masaya kami sa shoot.”

“Boso Dos” is written and directed by Jon Red. What’s his experience working with him? “He’s okay. First time ko makagawa ng movie na ang mga dialogue ko, hindi ko ganap na maintindihan.

Basta ibinabato ko ‘yung linya, ‘yun pala may mga patama. Ang galing nga, kasi nakakatawa ang effect. I hope to work with Direk Jon Red again.”

There is talk that Vivamax is being pressured to tone down their sexy scenes. How does he feel about it? “Ako naman, I just go with the flow. Basta kung ano ang ikagaganda ng movie namin at sa ikalalawak ng industriya natin, let’s do it. But aside from sexy scenes, puede rin naman ako mag-action at serious drama. Sa action, ang idol ko is Robin Padilla at sa drama naman, it’s Coco Martin.”

Since “Boso Dos” is about being a Peeping Tom, has he tried to make “boso” in real life? “Hindi. Hindi ako namboboso, kasi ayokong magawa sa akin ‘yun. Pero ako siguro, nabosohan na ako lalo sa shoot pag nakahubad ako. Pero okay lang naman. Tinatawanan ko lang. Sana masaya kayo sa nakikita nyo. Enjoy. Hahahaha!”
