Cast Vilma Santos (Anna), Christopher de Leon (Freddie), Anthony Castelo (Bernard San Diego), Deborah Sun (Bambi), Mila Ocampo (Ester), Ed Villapol (Pepito), Subas Herrero (Don Nilo)

“The tandem of Vilma Santos and Christopher de Leon had a string of respectable outputs back in the 80's both are incidentally Bernal flicks RELASYON and BROKEN MARRIAGE. I can only think of PINAY AMERICAN STYLE and IBULONG MO SA DIYOS as the only respectable output under Elwood's guidance. In PAKAWALAN MO AKO the usual dose of hysterical acting put on celluloid was tested again. Vilma forced to take a job as an escort for hire to raise funds for her sick mother played by Mila Ocampo. Completing the love triangle is singer debonair Anthony Castelo who raise to fame in the early 80's. Of course the plot became complicated when Anthony son of rich businessman Subas Herrero falls in love for Vilma. The rich father pinned to death Vilma in the court room scenes, exact replica of some of the best intense moments that you see in those serious Brocka movies. Ed Villapol and Deborah Sun provide the comic relief. Christopher de Leon could have master the act of greatest performance but failed to do so. You can't help but still sympathize with Vilma in the long run.”
