In Person: Anchalee Chaiworaporn, Film Critic
Filmed in a retina-scorching palette of garish colors, and featuring a cast clad in retro-60's outfits and hairdos, Petchthai Wongkamlao's zany musical is a prime example of Thailand's bounty of over-the-top gut busting comedies. The multi-talented Wongkamlao stars (under his stage name Mom Jokmok) as a country bumpkin who travels to Bangkok to retrieve the woman of his dreams, who was sent there by a meddling aunt who wants to keep the couple apart.
