Sharon plays an heiress who lost her inheritance to Richard, and to get it all back, she agrees to marry him.
Enjoy a supply of laughter from Direk Ben Feleo’s films on August 15. “Where D’Girls Are” brings together Rapper-comedian Andrew E. and the TGIS gang in this tale about poor boys falling in love with rich girls, and what they have to go through to get past the girls’ super strict aunt. “Wooly Booly”, starring Jimmy Santos, is a fantasy about an alien stranded in planet Earth who falls in love with a human. “Weyt a Minit, Kapeng Mainit” shows Janno Gibbs and Blackjack disguising themselves as women who end up in a training institute for Japayukis.

In “Pati Ba Pintig ng Puso”, Gabby Conception lures Sharon Cuneta into marriage so he can save his sister from the asylum with her help. In “Pangarap Na Ginto”, Dina Bonnevie, Dawn Zulueta and Timmy Cruz play old friends who initially try to cover up their personal problems, but learn that the truth will set them free. In “Tinik Sa Dibdib”, Nora Aunor is superb as a young woman who marries in haste to escape from her family of parasites only to experience graver ordeal with her in-laws.
Finally on the 29th, see why Bb. Joyce Bernal has become one of today’s most celebrated directors. “Kailangan Ko’y Ikaw” stars Regine Velasquez as a singing sensation kidnapped by a fan, Robin Padilla, who introduces her to the ordinary life she has been missing.
