    Celebrate Pride Month with Luca Guadagnino’s Acclaimed Drama “Queer” at Ayala Malls Cinemas This June 10

    As Pride Month shines a spotlight on stories of identity, love, and self-expression, Ayala Malls Cinemas continues its tradition of bringing meaningful and inclusive films to local audiences. This year, moviegoers can look forward to QUEER, the latest acclaimed work from award-winning filmmaker Luca Guadagnino, arriving exclusively in Ayala Malls Cinemas beginning June 10.

    Queer Still 1

    Recognized as an Official Competition entry at the 81st Venice International Film Festival in 2024, QUEER captivated audiences and critics alike, earning a nine-minute standing ovation during its premiere. Adapted from the novel by celebrated writer William S. Burroughs, the film offers a poignant and intimate portrait of longing, connection, and emotional vulnerability.

    Daniel Craig Leads a Stellar Cast

    Headlining the film is Daniel Craig as William Lee, an American expatriate navigating life in 1950s Mexico City. Living on the fringes of a small foreign community, William’s routine existence begins to change when he encounters Eugene Allerton, portrayed by Drew Starkey.

    As their bond deepens, William finds himself confronting emotions he has long kept at a distance. What unfolds is a deeply personal journey that explores desire, companionship, and the complexities of human connection.

    Joining Craig and Starkey are Lesley Manville, Jason Schwartzman, Henrique Zaga, and Omar Apollo, completing a talented ensemble that brings depth and authenticity to the story.

    A New Perspective on a Literary Work

    Known for his visually stunning and emotionally layered storytelling, Guadagnino offers a fresh interpretation of Burroughs’ unfinished and semi-autobiographical novel.

    Queer Still 3

    Rather than focusing solely on themes of alienation, the director emphasizes the tenderness at the heart of the narrative. Through his lens, QUEER becomes a moving reflection on the human need for connection, revealing moments of vulnerability that resonate long after the credits roll.

    The film examines how individuals seek understanding and intimacy, even when faced with uncertainty, fear, or emotional barriers.

    A Meaningful Pride Month Screening

    For Ayala Malls Cinemas, presenting stories that celebrate diversity and representation remains an important part of its commitment to audiences. Over the years, the cinema chain has provided a platform for films that encourage dialogue and foster greater empathy through powerful storytelling.

    Ayala Malls Cinemas Exclusively Screens New Psychological Horror Film “Obsession” Opens May 27

    Ayala Malls Cinemas continues to raise the bar for curated movie experiences with the exclusive local release of Obsession, a chilling psychological horror film from emerging filmmaker Curry Barker.

    Obsession 910x430 px

    Following the viral success of his 2024 found footage horror movie Milk & Serial, Barker returns with another unsettling story that explores the dangerous extremes of affection, fixation, and emotional obsession.

    When Love Becomes Something Far More Sinister

    At the center of Obsession is a lonely romantic determined to win over the girl he admires. In a desperate attempt to change his fate, he makes a wish on a strange novelty item called the “One Wish Willow” toy.

    What begins as a dream come true quickly spirals into a nightmare.

    As his wishes start becoming reality, the consequences grow darker and more disturbing, forcing him to confront the terrifying cost of getting exactly what he wants.

    Obsession 3

    Director Curry Barker revealed that the film was inspired by the blurred lines between love and unhealthy attachment.

    “With Obsession, I wanted to tell a story about how far someone’s fixation on another person can go. At what point does something we call love stop being love? And beyond that, what does the word “love” even mean?”

    He also hopes the movie sparks conversations long after audiences leave the cinema.

    “I want people leaving the theater still talking – arguing over how they felt, what they would have done differently, and whether what they saw was love or obsession.”

The film stars Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal, Emily Watson, and Joe Alwyn, delivering deeply affecting performances that have captivated critics worldwide.

    A Standout of the Awards Season

    HAMNET has emerged as one of the most talked-about films of the year, earning Academy Award nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, and a host of major craft categories including Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Casting, Best Production Design, Best Costume Design, and Best Original Score.

    The film also made waves at the Golden Globes, where it claimed Best Motion Picture – Drama, alongside Jessie Buckley’s win for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama. Lauded for its emotional honesty and restrained storytelling, HAMNET continues to resonate with audiences for its intimate portrayal of love, grief, and creation.

    Watch the Official Trailer here:

    The Story Behind a Timeless Masterpiece

    Set in late 16th-century England, HAMNET offers a poignant reimagining of the life of William Shakespeare and his wife Agnes. What begins as a passionate courtship blossoms into marriage and family life, with three children grounding their world.

    As Will leaves for London to pursue a career in theater, Agnes remains behind, managing the household and holding their family together. When tragedy unexpectedly strikes, the couple’s enduring bond is pushed to its limits.

    “The beautiful and memorable storytelling in Maggie O’Farrell’s best-selling novel deserved to be brought to the screen by a filmmaker who would protect the material’s integrity and demonstrate an intuitive understanding of the emotional and complex journey that the characters—and the audience—take over the course of the story.  There was only one director I knew who would bring Hamnet to the screen with such compassionate care, and that is Chloé Zhao,” says Spielberg. “In adapting the novel with Maggie, Chloé’s inherent humanity, unerring sense of narrative, and gift for getting remarkable performances infuse every frame of Hamnet”.
