00:04But the tag of Mr. Dolphy's son is Dolphy's son.
00:09When it comes to your career, did it make it easier or was it a pressure?
00:14Both. It was easy for me because everything was laid out in a silver platter.
00:19Like, oh, okay, Eric and Dolphy's son.
00:24However, there was a pressure because he was the only son of Dolphy.
00:27He wasn't able to reach out to his dad.
00:29Which is like, huh, I need to be a good one.
00:31So, I had a point like that.
00:33That's why, I didn't really do comedy.
00:37It was more of like, I want the route of the matinee idol.
00:41And then, I was teaching.
00:43And that was a wise decision.
00:45Because it was different. I wanted to be away from that.
00:49But I didn't even go there.
00:51And then, I was offered this body and soul.
00:54So, it wasn't. It was like that.
00:57He's ready for the wife.
00:59Oh, yeah.
01:01He's brilliant.
01:02Brilliant.
01:03Brilliant.
01:03Brilliant comedian.
01:05Brilliant guy.
01:05May mga usap-usapan na kayo'y gagawa ng biopic?
01:08I want to.
01:09You want to?
01:10I want to.
01:10I've been planning.
01:12The last five weeks?
01:13The last five weeks.
01:14Wow. You've been planning? Sorry.
01:15Yeah. I've been planning with Bibeth.
01:17Orteza.
01:18Orteza.
01:18So, I asked Bibeth to.
01:21Because she wrote the book.
01:22Because she wrote the book.
01:23Uh-oh.
01:23So, I told her that I wanted to encapsulate the time he was brought to the hospital.
01:29Until the time that he died.
01:31Why, Eric?
01:32Why not five decades?
01:34Why not five years?
01:35Why not five years?
01:35You know what life I did to Dolphy, right?
01:37Okay, boy.
01:38Pag ginawa natin yung biopic from day one.
01:41Three days.
01:43Baka, yes.
01:44Hindi.
01:45Parang kulangan two hours for a movie.
01:47Kaya sabi ko talaga,
01:48encapsulated five weeks.
01:50Kasi parang maraming hindi nakakaalam yung ordeal ng family at that time.
01:54Yeah.
01:54And I think it's a beautiful story.
01:56Because from the time that I asked for prayers,
01:59parang nakinig ang buong Pilipinas.
02:01Totoo.
02:01And the Philippines prayed with us.
02:04And for some reason, it gave us hope.
02:06Parang it was a miracle.
02:08Whenever I would say that, I would pray.
02:11Because gumagaling siya na dumidilat ang mata, lumalakas siya.
02:16So, sa family namin, parang it was a great time.
02:22Now, we were spending that, those precious last few days of my dad with us.
02:29Parang, Biro mo ko eh boy, nasa ICU kami.
02:32An ilang kami?
02:33Ang dami namin magkakapatid.
02:34Sa ICU, isa lang ang allowed.
02:35At dito kami lahat.
02:36Walang magawa.
02:37At nakakatahan daw.
02:39Nakakatahan kami.
02:40May gitara yung mga kapatid ko.
02:42Right.
02:43Walang magawa yung mga doktorat at saka mga...
02:45He was a great man.
02:46He was loved.
02:47I covered that.
02:48Alam mo nung nasa ospital kayo.
02:49Lahat kami nasa labas.
02:51Yes.
02:51At nagko-cover.
02:51And you guys would grant us interviews.
02:54Maraming salamat.
02:55Dahil hindi nyo ipinagkait ang dakilang Dolphy sa Sambayanan.
02:59Hindi naman namin pwedeng pagkait siya.
03:01Dahil alam namin na mahal siya ng tao.
03:02No.
03:03No.
03:03See ya.
03:06Bye.
