“Everything Everywhere All At Once”, “Triangle of Sadness”, and “Plan 75” are back for special screenings at Cinema ’76 and Cinematheque

Those who missed the theatrical release of “Everything Everywhere All At Once”, “Triangle of Sadness”, and “Plan 75” are in luck as TBA Studios brings back these award-winning movies for a special micro-cinema run at Cinema ’76 Film Society and Cinematheque Centres across the country.

The multiverse adventure of an aging Asian laundromat owner captured the hearts and attention of movie audiences when it opened in the Philippines last August and is continuing to do so hot on the heels of its major wins at the 80th Golden Globe Awards, a Best Supporting trophy for Ke Huy Quan and Best Actress for Michelle Yeoh.

Meanwhile, “Triangle of Sadness” made a major splash across movie lovers with its biting commentary on the rich and the privileged. But what made Ruben Östlund’s Palme d’Or-winning film a true hit among Filipinos is the presence of Dolly de Leon, whose scene-stealing performance of a luxury cruise toilet cleaner earned her a historic nomination for Best Supporting Actress at the recently concluded Golden Globes. De Leon’s nomination garnered a new wave of interest for the film especially for those who missed it during its initial theatrical run and limited QCinema International Film Festival screenings.
