The Right Man - Christmas Gift (2016)

STORY: Short slice-of-life with a gay, married Thai couple. The story was very good and realistic. The moral: Relationships take effort to maintain and this was a good reminder of that. The ending is so sweet.

ACTING/CAST: I think the actors had good chemistry.

MUSIC: I loved that end song and the music in general.

REWATCH VALUE: (UPDATED) Well, since I went through the trouble of resubbing the entire video and post it in 1080p...I've seen it a lot. Still sweet. Check the comments section for the link.

OVERALL: I liked that the couple already had an established relationship and were mature.

It's no glory. The film contains typical features of film production in non-Islamic Asian countries - naivety, playback, the implausibility of some scenes, comedy that will make an Asian viewer laugh and a European one rather cry. But take everything I wrote with an exaggeration. Otherwise, I like Thai art, but not all of it.

And now the pros. Once the film is Thai, I feel freer because I know that where it is necessary to portray the story, there may (or may not) be intimate actors, unlike the current Chinese-censored production. Decent quality copy with easy to read English subtitles and looks good on the boys, especially Daniel.
