In this scene from Patikul, Allen Dizon's character Amman is confused, being unable to do a transaction properly because he's illiterate.













Allen Dizon is  blessed to have the best of both worlds in anything he does, whether as an actor or as private person, in his family life or business.

"I'm so thankful to God for guiding me, and for all the blessings I'm having now!" sabi ng aktor sa PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) kamakailan. 

"Gusto ko ring bigyang-credit ang pamilya ko, sa suporta at inspirasyon na ibinibigay nila," sabi rin ni Allen. Kasama niyang dumalo ang asawang si Crystelle Dizon sa presscon ng 7th Cinemalaya Film Festival noong June 8 sa  Main Theater lobby ng Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP).

Allen was at the presscon proper, bilang lead actor ng Patikul, entry sa Directors' Showcase category, sa direksiyon ni Joel Lamangan.

But he had to beg off sa one-on-one interview, dahil on that day, he and Crystelle were celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary at kailangang umalis nang maaga ang aktor.

May tatlong anak sina Allen at Crystelle: Nella Marie, 8 years old; Felixia Crysten, 5; at Lucas Allric, 3 years old.

STRICT PARENT.  Sa naunang interview ng PEP.ph ay nagpahayag si Allen Dizon ng kanyang saloobin tungkol sa pagiging isang padre de familia:

"I make it a point to have bonding moments with my wife and my children. 

"Ang sarap ng may pamilya.  At gusto kong maramdaman ng mga anak ko, na sila ang pinaka-importante sa akin.  I play with them; sabay-sabay kami kumakain, at gusto naming mag-asawa na magkakatabi kami sa pagtulog.

"Palagi kong iniisip ngayon ang kinabukasan ng mga anak ko," sabi pa ni Allen. 

"I want to make sure na paglaki nila ay secure ang future nila."

Bilang ama, strict disciplinarian si Allen.

"I don't want to spoil my children," aniya pa. "Iba na ang priorities ko ngayon. It's always my family.  Sila kasi ang inspirasyon at ang buhay ko.

"Ang pangarap ko sa mga anak ko, katulad din ng pangarap ng kahit na sinong magulang: ang makatapos ng pag-aaral at maging responsableng tao sila. 

"Importante sa akin ang edukasyon, kaya nagta-trabaho ako noong araw, bilang artista, at the same time, pinilit kong makatapos ng college.  I graduated [with a degree] in Hotel and Restaurant Management; iyon kasi ang 'pamana' na walang katumbas na pera."
