Ayala Malls Cinemas continues to bring world-class, award-winning films within reach of every movie enthusiast as The Holdovers opens exclusively in its screens on February 21.
The Holdovers is arguably filmmaker Alexander Payne’s “most emotional movie,” says producer Mark Johnson (Rain Man, Breaking Bad).
Directed by Academy Award winner Payne (Sideways, The Descendants) from a script by David Hemingson (Kitchen Confidential), The Holdovers follows a grumpy instructor (Paul Giamatti) at a prestigious American school who is forced to remain on campus during Christmas break to babysit the handful of students with nowhere to go. Eventually he forms an unlikely bond with one of them – a damaged, brainy troublemaker (newcomer Dominic Sessa) – and with the school’s head cook, who has just lost a son in Vietnam (Da’Vine Joy Randolph).
