If you like to check out the elaborate sets, stages, props and costumes used in the making of "The Legend of King Naresuan", pay a visit to the Prommitr Film Studio located in Kanchanaburi. Here's their website. Entrance fee is 200 B (for foreigners), try to get there on a weekday, as it gets really crowded during weekends.

These is this movie called SAWASDEE BANGKOK which consists of four separate short stories. It is supposed to show Bangkok's life.
Does anyone know if it is out yet? Anyone seen it?
Here below is what I found in the net:
"Unlike the recent Paris, je t’aime and New York, I Love You, Sawasdee Bangkok is notable in that only Thai filmmakers were commissioned for the project, giving this omnibus work a much more intimate knowledge of its city. Moreover, the directors are not afraid to show the darker side of Thai society, from prostitution to poverty.
The first segment, Sightseeing, directed by Wisit Sasanatieng (Tears of the Black Tiger, Citizen Dog), is a magic-realist tale of a blind woman who longs to see the city in which she lives. Bangkok Blues from Aditya Assarat (Wonderful Town) follows an amusing account of two buddies, both of mixed nationality, and their awkward relationships with Thai women. One scene is particularly effective: a slow pan of a dilapidated playground accompanied by the recorded sounds of children. Kongdej Jaturanrasamee (Midnight, My Love) directs the melancholic third segment, Pi Makham. The title refers both to a ghost and to the prostitutes who roam an area called Sanam Luang Park each night. Finally, Silence by Pen-ek Ratanaruang (Last Life in the Universe, Nymph) tells the funny and poignant story of one woman’s drunken escapade with a friend. It leads to a chance encounter with a bizarre homeless man at two in the morning when her car breaks down in the middle of nowhere.
Together, these shorts by four acclaimed filmmakers form a surprisingly cohesive and entertaining whole – a rarity for an omnibus project. For those who have never been to Bangkok, this film is probably the cheapest way to experience the “land of smiles” without having to pay for a long-haul flight. And if you don’t crack a grin during the shorts, wait until you see the hilarious post-credit segment."

Thanks FIB.

"Same Same but Different"
Why would you call a movie set in Phnom Penh, and featuring a love story between a german and a Cambodian bar girl, same same but different? As far as I know, that phrase means absolutely nothing to Cambodians.
But apparently the lead actress, Sakuljaroensuk, is Thai.
I will watch it for the shots of Phnom Penh, if I can find a copy.
