Went last night, it was great to talk to the screenwriter/director and tell him what an absolutely excellent movie he made. Pretty decent crowd there, most of whom hadn't seen the film before. I forgot, unfortunately, to ask the fellow from the film company where exactly to find the version of the DVD with English subtitles. Doh.

Then we watched the film and, as usual, it made me cry tears of appreciation and a certain melancholic joy. That's the main thing about this film, it's full of melancholic joy and basic goodness wrapped in the heart of genuine sadness, something I find entirely missing from Thai film/art in general.

Bittersweet.

Gotta love it!
