Beauty Queen, is a film that tells the story of the heart-wrenching reality about one-sided love.
Whether one is single or not, I'm Drunk, I Love You is the perfect Valentine's movie. It is a movie full of witty and romantic lines and quotes about love that everyone can surely relate to. With the movie's nostalgic setting, it will definitely give one a lesson or two about the importance of loving oneself this Valentine's Day.
I'm Drunk, I Love You by JP Habac follows two best friends, Dio—played by Paulo Avelino and Carson—played by Maja Salvador, as they both go on a road trip days before graduation to resolve their feelings for each other.
JP, the director, was quick to stress that the film is not the whimsical romance usually played out on the big screen. Instead, it reflects the experiences of real people.
“I'm Drunk, I Love You is a synthesis from people within my social circles who have had the unfortunate chance of being a victim of a one-sided love,” the director said.
