THE FIGHT CONTINUES – Grace Poe
The man who was “FPJ” is gone, but his legacy lives on.
FPJ is “Da King” of Philippine cinema. His life story, as well was the stories that he tells in his movies, inspire, not only because they tell of seemingly insurmountable obstacles, which are conquered by pure and honest intentions and unwavering hopefulness in the goodness of the Filipino hero.
At an early age, FPJ’s father passed away, which forced him to drop out of high school, and carry the responsibilities of the head of the family. He started in the movies as a stuntman, and worked his way up to being the “bida,” and would eventually earn the title of being the undisputed “King of Philippine Cinema” or “Da King.”
