THERE WAS a big fuss when
Gabby Concepcion came home more than three years ago. Film and TV companies competed for him and his relationship with his manager then, Rose Flaminiano, even ended in court. But as it turned out, the project he got involved with it didn’t hit it big as people expected, like his movie with his own daughter
KC, “I’ll Be There”, and the horror flick he did with Regal, “White House”. Only “I Love You Goodbye” with
Angelica Panganiban did well at the tills. And now, he seems to have gone back to oblivion. People say his last card would be doing a film with ex-wife Sharon Cuneta since their Sharon-Gabby love team was really a big hit then. After seeing Gabby in the restored version of the youth movie “Summer Love”, Mother Lily of Regal said she wants to help Gabby again. “Gabby remains to be one of our best leading men and screen heartthrobs ever,” she said. She’s now thinking of casting him in one of her three Metro filmfest entries, maybe in “Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow”. Here’s hoping
Mother Lily, his original discoverer, will really succeed in giving his career the boost it so badly needs.
