ACF 2058: WEDDING PALACE has successful opening weekend, is held over and expanding to new theaters
Great news from director Christine Yoo: WEDDING PALACE ENJOYED A SUCCESSFUL OPENING WEEKEND!!!
As a result, Wedding Palace will be holding over in all the theaters for another week, except for CGV in Ktown which was only a one week engagement. And the film will be expanding to new theaters. It will open in Philadelphia this Friday, 10/4; in Queens, NY at AMC Bay Terrance on 10/11; and in Washington DC, Angelika at Mosaic 10/18 for a special one week engagement.
This success has largely been the result of terrific word-of-mouth and some very positive reviews, including those at The NYTimes, The Village Voice, and of course AsianCineFest.
Stay tuned as new theaters in more cities to be announced soon!
