Sold Out Shows for “In My Life”

Fans lined up outside Glendale’s Alex Theatre to a sold-out showing of In My Life. The film also sold out in theatres in San Francisco and New Jersey.  The story is a comedy-drama, starring John Lloyd Cruz, Luis Manzano, and Vilma Santos in her much anticipated comeback film. It offers the viewer a perspective on how the love of two men teaches a woman to move on and live again. The film is in Filipino/Tagalog.

Starmometer reports:

Even with the sterling success of the film, Governor Santos and the stars were thinking of the victims of Typhoon Ondoy that devastated the Philippines. She asked for donations from the moviegoers to help her province of Batangas in its rehabilitation and clean-up efforts. ABS-CBN International’s Starry Starry Store donated a dollar each for every premiere ticket sold in San Francisco and New Jersey. Governor Santos also sought donations during the premiere of In My Life in Canada.

“These sold-out premieres clearly demonstrate that the Filipinos in the U.S. have fully embraced the return of the best of Philippine cinema to the big screen,” said Kerwin Du, ABS-CBN North America’s head of theatricals. “They relish the experience of watching quality films where they belong – the movie theater. They are enthusiastic about seeing their favorite stars in person. For us in ABS-CBN, we are gratified to be able to give our kapamilya what they want wherever they are: the best in Philippine entertainment.”
