Lenora Will Never Die Opening at the Cinema Art Theater in Lewes

Opening December 9, the Rehoboth Beach Film Society’s Cinema Art Theater presents Lenora Will Never Die, an imaginative psychological comedy-drama and Sundance Film Festival-award winner.

Leonor Reyes was once a groundbreaking figure in the Filipino film industry during its ragtag action cinema glory days, but now she struggles with old age, mounting bills, and the untimely death of her son. While revisiting an unfinished script about a fearless protagonist trying to avenge his brother’s murder, Leonor is struck on the head by a falling television set and knocked out and into a coma. As she lays unconscious in the hospital, fantasy and reality begin to blur when Leonor finds herself awake inside the unfinished script, becoming the hero of her own story. An innovative blend of pulpy action homages, playful comedy, and touching family drama, Leonor Will Never Die is a wonderfully imaginative tribute to the art of filmmaking. [2022, Philippines, 99 min, Rating: Not Rated, In Fillpino with English subtitles]

Erin Brady of SlashFilm says, “There is a lot to love about Leonor Will Never Die, from its faithfulness to the action film aesthetic to its core message honoring those whose words bring movies to life.” Nadir Samara of ScreenRant writes, “To say Leonor Will Never Die is making bold choices would be an understatement. The film is gorgeous, and the script is easily one of the year's best.”

Screening time are 6 pm on Fri (Dec 9), 3 pm on Sat (Dec 10) and 3 pm on Wed (Dec 14). Admission is $9 for members, $11.50 for general audiences and $5 for students. Purchase advance tickets at rehobothfilm.com or at the Cinema Art Theater box office in Lewes beginning 30 minutes prior to the screening.
