It's rare in Thailand that the writer of a movie gets any attention, except for a few of the newer writer/directors.<BR/><BR/>Since writing is, after all, a major weakness of most Thai films. But hearing this game of two-parter, then 140-minute one-parter, then 120-minute one-parter, then 30-second beer ad... doesn't bode well for the potential coherency of the plot.<BR/><BR/>Looks worth a watch, though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
