'Faney' a gift to Nora and fandom
Manila Bulletin
|May 23, 2025
On the occasion of what would have been Nora Aunor’s 72nd birthday, a movie about the passionate fan mentality that she has spawned premiered May 21 at Gateway cinema in Cubao.
Titled 'Faney,' and subtitled 'The Fan,' the movie pays tribute to the Philippine superstar and National Artist for Film and Broadcast Arts who passed on April 16 due to complications brought about by acute respiratory illness.
An advance trailer for the film released on social media shows lead actress Laurice Guillen, playing a long-time fan of Nora's, reenacting certain landmark scenes from some of the actress' films. The scene should resonate with Nora's fans, who normally get a thrill reciting her movie lines over and over, with conviction, grace and bravura.
