Pick up your phone and watch a movie with a ticket
Among the new films released this week, "Genius Gunner" is undoubtedly the most eye-catching. The audience's high score evaluation and various public accounts have recommended it, and many people directly call it "God's Work".
The development of Thai cinema is obvious to all, from high-quality horror films sweeping across Asia, to youth films capturing the hearts of a large number of fans, various genre films are becoming more and more abundant. This weekend, let's watch a few well-received Thai movies from recent years.
Teacher's Diary (2014)
Director: Nittiva Tarathan
Starring: Laila BangYashu / Sugley Wessego / Sograva Kanano / Chutima Tipanath / Ventawa Slambon
Genre: Comedy / Romance
Runtime: 105 minutes
Song, a former boxer, came to the remote dam area as a primary school teacher. The school conditions were harsh, there was no water, no electricity, no signal, and Song felt very lonely. By chance, Song gets a diary, and the owner of the diary is Ann, a former teacher at this elementary school. Ann details her teaching career here in her diary, and through a diary, Song develops a different affection for Ann who wrote these words. By chance, An returned to the Baqu Elementary School, but Song had already left. Ann found her diary, but found a continuation of Song in the diary, Song wrote all his joys and sorrows in the diary, and also expressed his desire to see Ann...
Compared with some pure love films with blunt plots and forced sensationalism, this film creates a romantic love imagination for the audience in a bland narrative through such a very literary and romantic act of writing a diary, and truly achieves the three words of small freshness. I think you'll be like me, smiling the whole time, watching this movie.

Sound for Love (2011)
Director: Chayanope Buenparakob
Starring: Girayo Raonmani / Pajala Chira Sivat / Natasha Raugam / Savat Borana Pollat / Napa Chongjin Dachai
Genre: Comedy / Romance / Music
Runtime: 130 minutes
As a child, Xiao Bei was moved by a music class because of the little grace of singing rock and roll. Xiao En's family opened a record store, and Xiao En also dreamed of becoming a singer. In order to know Xiao En better, Xiao Bei, who had never been exposed to popular music, began to listen to songs. However, soon after Xiao En moved with her parents and left Chiang Mai, Xiao Bei lost contact with the girl she loved.
A few years later, Xiaobei had become a high school student, and rock and roll had become a popular center. Xiao Bei and Xiao En are unexpectedly reunited, and Xiao Bei is bent on proving his talent to Xiao En. It just so happened that Xiao Bei's friend Xiao Kong was preparing to form a band in order to attract the girl's attention. As a result, XiaoKong, Xiaobei, and Ike, three hot-blooded boys with no musical background, began a bumpy and enthusiastic orchestra road.
This plot, once listened to, is the usual routine of hot-blooded youth films, and the musical elements added are not new. However, "the bridge section is not afraid of the old, the most important thing is to accept", as long as the filming is good, the routine of youth films is still very moving, such as the American drama "Glee" with similar themes.
"No matter how many times you have, you can't compare to the silly years together" Although the stories of youth have a sense of recklessness and stupidity, but that simple emotion and state of mind, no matter how many years later, will still be moved.

Uncle Bumi who can recall a past life (2010)
Directed By: Apichatpong Welashaku
Starring: Sakada Kawenbadi / jenjira pongpas / natthakarn aphaiwonk / geerasak kulhong
Genre: Drama / Fantasy
Runtime: 114 minutes
The film won the Palme d'Or at the 63rd Cannes Film Festival. Director Apichatpong's work has always been favored by the Western world, and his films focus on Thai social realities and various political topics. The film also covers illegal immigration, the current situation of monks, and the massacres of the 1960s. But in addition to this, what is favored by Cannes, I think, is also the strong oriental philosophical color of his films.
The film tells a very stream-of-consciousness story: Uncle Bumi, who has acute kidney failure, returns to the countryside to recuperate. Every day he ate quietly, cooled down, watched his family work, and greeted the arrival of death. One summer night, Uncle Bumi and his nephew and sister-in-law were eating and chatting in the courtyard, and Uncle Bumi's wife, who had been dead for a long time, appeared and told them about the recent situation and years of thoughts. Later, Uncle Bumi's long-missing son also appeared as an orangutan. A few people separated by yin and yang calmly pulled homely, calm orchards, calm breezes, every scenery was already there, every story was like a dream...
The director expresses many of his views on death, society, and life through the plot or dialogue of the film. It can be said that through the form of film, it is presented as a compilation of individual philosophical ideas. Most people may feel that the film is too cloudy, but fans who like this mysterious and inspiring content may wish to take a look.
