Together, they embarked on an impressive streak of collaborations.

"Jaguar," where Salvador played the lead, was the first Filipino film to enter into competition at the Cannes Film Festival.

In the 1980s and 1990s, Salvador starred in several biopics, including "Balweg" (1986), "Boy Negro" (1988), "Kumander Dante" (1988), "Joe Pring: Homicide Manila Police" (1989) and its sequel "Kidlat ng Maynila: Joe Pring 2" (1991), "Mancao" (1994), and "Ka Hector" (1995). He won his third FAMAS Best Actor Award for playing Senator Robert Barbers in "Bobby Barbers, Parak" (1997).
