Why I Love (Old) Thai Movies<\/strong>
\nAliosha or Dr Yo is a French girl in love with Thai cinema 1945-1970. She’s seen more of them than possibly anyone still alive.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

She’s chosen 2 of them for your enjoyment: ‘Money Money Money’ & ‘Sugar is not Sweet’, Thai golden oldies that, when we revisit them, embrace us like long-lost family–happy ghosts of long-lost Thailand.

Manat (Sombat Methani), the indolent heir to the prosperous Kesa Charoen pharmaceutical company, unwillingly get engaged to the daughter of his father\u2019s Indian friend, Namtan (Metta Rungrat), with the sole purpose of inheriting a great fortune… Rat Pestanyi\u2019s last feature film sharply parodies the \u2018sugary\u2019 tonality (wan<\/em>) of Thai popular 16mm romances, transposed into a colourful Cinemascope musical.

Akaphon, a nephew of millionaire and greedy loan shark Hiranphokit, returns to Thailand after graduating in entertainment management from England, and decides to run a nightclub with a joyous, penniless amateur band… This brilliant musical comedy directed by Prince Anuson Mongkholkan Yugala in 1965, featuring the legendary \u201cMit-Phetchara\u201d duo and a myriad of leading singers, audaciously unveils the violence of economic relationships and remains a pure gem of world cinema.
