Dolly de Leon has added more weight to the star wattage of <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/dirtylinen">Dirty Linen</a> as Olivia, the Fiero housemaid whose mysterious murder has set the tone of the story’s revenge and drama. In an exclusive interview with <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/">ent.abs-cbn.com</a>, the globally acclaimed actress shared her thoughts about the series.The best thing about portraying Olivia, she said, is sharing the screen with Janine Gutierrez as her mother. She mentioned that she became Janine’s instant fan upon watching the latter’s movie “Babae at Baril.”She extends the praises to the show’s creative team, pleased with how they managed to get out of the box and deliver something new and fresh to the audience.Asked for trivia bits about her shooting experience in <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/dirtylinen">Dirty Linen</a>, Dolly mentioned that she only had two days to film all her scenes, all of which were emotional and heavy, hence the challenge. “Umabot ng five emotional scenes in one day,” she recalled.One of the most difficult parts was pretending to talk to somebody over the phone while hiding inside the closet, as seen in the pilot episode. “In other words, wala kang co-actor na ka-eksena. ‘Pag wala akong co-actor na ka-eksena, mas nahihirapan ako kaysa ‘yung pag kausap ko ‘yung sarili ko or imagination ko lang.”Review that scene where the Fieros found Olivia’s body covered with blood on the floor. According to Dolly, she stayed on the floor for hours for continuity as they had to shoot each sequence meticulously.“Sa sobrang dami ng dugo sa sahig, hindi na ako nakakatayo. Kasi ‘pag tumayo ako, masisira ‘yung continuity ng dugo. Two, madudumihan ‘yung other parts ng sahig kung saan kami nag-shoot, so kailangan maglinis ng art dept, mas mahihirapan sila.”She continued, “So, for a very long time, nakahiga lang ako sa sahig. Maya’t maya, ‘yung mga actors, si Angel [Aquino], si Epy [Quizon], lumalapit, ‘Kailangan mo tubig? Okay ka lang ba diyan? Bigyan natin ng unan ng unan si Ms. Dolly?’”“Matagal akong nakahiga doon. Hindi talaga ako nakatayo in-between takes. ‘Pag lunch break, ‘yun nakakatayo na ako.” Catch the finale episode of <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/dirtylinen">Dirty Linen</a> tonight on <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/kapamilya-channel-livestream-12685">Kapamilya Channel,</a> <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/kapamilya-online-live-12710">Kapamilya Online Live</a>, TV5, and A2Z.
