#A CRAZY THING CALLED LOVE MOVIE MOVIE#
In spite of this honesty, the movie also manages to very lovingly portray the universal extremes of a girl's blooming feelings for her first boy crush, but again very Thai in it's portrayal. The filmmaker is courageous in revealing this less-than-laudable aspect of Thai culture, with Nam's teacher calling her "dark skinned" in the film's opening moments.

If you've not lived here, you may be entirely unaware of the social status Chinese features and pale skin award people, and how much shame is bestowed on those who look exactly like the indigenous people of this region. What she's really subordinated by is her Thai features and dark complexion. Nam, the protagonist for this film, is characterized as "plain" and "awkward" in the film's beginning. The inhabit a world that is at once filled with mystical notions and aspirations, and also rife with the most petty and spiteful stereotypes and internal racism. What this particular film does, in its own sublime way, is reveal so much about the character and culture of the world's most lovable people. it's a teen love story, and if there's a way to create something unique in the way of plot vehicles for this genre, I'd like to hear it.

The story in itself is pretty unremarkable. If ever there will be, Mario Maurer will reprise his role as Shone and Fern Pimchanok Leuwisedpaiboon will reprise her role as Nam.This is a film that anyone can enjoy, provided they leave their own cultural bias' by the door. The director confirmed that there is a sequel, however, it is still only in draft-processing but will be released soon. This sequel takes part after the 9 Years of Shone and Nam’s life. :Pįirst Love 2: The Sequel, 9 Years Gone. So, note to every man, say ‘love’ if you love her before it’s too late because second chances do not always exist. I think, on eastern culture, it is not usual if a woman express her feeling first to a man she loved. It’s good if the change go to the positive direction. Chasing is really the best part, right? :Pīesides that, love can make someone change, either to fit with his/her loved one or to get his/her attention. Pretty good movie, nothing special but still entertaining.Īfter watching this movie, it is funny to realize how every little thing can make us either happy or worried. But don’t worry because the transformation of Nam may not be boring and can be a refresher during this film. That CHEESY!!!Īlthough the story is simple, unfortunately the movie is told with a bit long-winded and makes the duration is quite long, almost two hours. It describe first love and its cheesy things.

Eventhough, many girls are still crazy for him, including Nam.Īware as not-a-dazzling-girl in the school, Nam, with the help of her friends, try everything to improve herself to get Shone’s attention. He often teased by his schoolmate because his father failed to take penalty shoot on the football cup. Shone is a charming 10th-grade-student who interested in photography and football. :)Ĭrazy Little Called Love (2010) is a Thailand romantic comedy starring Fern Pimchanok Leuvisedpaibul (as Nam) and Mario Maurer (as Shone). Nam is a high school girl who is secretly in love with her senior, Shone. Not a new movie though, but still worth-watching. I’ve watched several Thailand romantic movie, and its addictive!
