Chua Fah Din Salai tops Bangkok Critics nominations


The steamy romantic drama Chua Fah Din Salai (Eternity) continues its roll through Thailand's movie-awards season, with 12 nominations for the Bangkok Critics Assembly Awards.

Directed by ML Bhandevanop Devakul and starring Ananda Everingham and "Ploy" Chermarn Boonyasak, Chua Fah Din Salai is nominated in all 11 categories. The period romance already swept most of the Kom Chad Luek Awards and is the top nominee for the StarPics Awards.

Other top nominees include Nak Prok (The Shadow of the Naga) with 10 nominations, Wisit Sasanatieng's Insee Daeng (The Red Eagle) with seven nods and the travel romance Rao Song Sam Khon (That Sounds Good) with six nominations.

Ananda is a double nominee for best actor for Chua Fah Din Salai and The Red Eagle.

The indie film Sawan Baan Na (Agrarian Utopia) by Uruphong Raksasad got four nods and Apichatpong Weerasethakul's Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives and Anocha Suwichakornpong's Mundane History each got three nominations.
