Drunken Noodles is in theaters from Strand Releasing. Lucio Castro directed it. It opened June 26.
Castro made End of the Century in 2019, which became one of the decade's most celebrated queer films. Drunken Noodles is his third feature and returns to the same territory: erotic magical realism, time that folds over itself, summer heat in New York. Laith Khalifeh plays Adnan, an art student with a summer internship and a string of encounters that blur the line between romance and reality.
100 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Variety calls it a breezy, summery diversion. IndieWire calls it one of Cannes' sexiest, queerest films.
Before you go, watch End of the Century. Castro does this better than almost anyone.
81 minutes long. Playing right now. The best queer film nobody in your group chat has seen yet.
