    Comedic fun with whodunnit

    Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 13/12/2019

    » Old-fashioned whodunnit or detective murder-mystery stories are very successful as novels and television series, but we don't get to see as many of them on film nowadays, let alone a decent one. We may have had the remake of Murder On The Orient Express two years ago, although the movie was kind of a flop, or there's the Sherlock Holmes movie franchise with Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr. But even those are based on already very popular characters in literature.

    Core lesson we teach kids? Hypocrisy

    News, Published on 18/12/2019

    » As the year comes to an end, many of us are looking forward to a bonus, holidays and new resolutions. Looking ahead, two Saturdays after 2020 arrives, we will have yet another celebration -- wan dek or National Children's Day (NCD). Adults take pride in making this day memorable for children. Traditional activities and perks for kids include an opportunity to sit in the prime minister's chair at Government House (which I did years ago), breathtaking airshows by the Royal Thai Air Force, free gifts and privileged entry to zoos and museums. What a day to be a kid!

    Yesterday, today & forever

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 10/07/2020

    » It doesn't matter whether you're a kid or you're seasoned in your years: if you haven't been living under a rock and you love movies, you know who Tom Hanks is and you love him. What's not to love? He voiced a cowboy that takes us back to our childhood, played a lovable slow-witted man who taught us that life is like a box of chocolates and he's also led us through the hells of World War II during D-Day. He returns to that era of history in his new film, Greyhound, which he stars in and also wrote the screenplay for. He plays Captain Ernie Krause who helms the titular ship and is also leading a number of ships through a dangerous part of the Atlantic Ocean. Guru was able to join a digital press conference where he talks about the parallels between World War II and how Covid has affected film-making.

    PM must learn to turn other cheek

    News, Veera Prateepchaikul, Published on 13/07/2020

    » After six years in office and having earned the unenviable reputation of being an "angry pot" for his occasionally unprovoked outbursts at Government House reporters, Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha might have thought it was about time for him to change tack and reach out to media outlets that he didn't appear to admire.

    Low-budget veneer is film's main attraction

    Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 27/09/2019

    » One of people's biggest fears is to be deemed an outcast, or freak. And the theme about suffering from being different, hiding away from authority, or discovering hidden special powers is the sort of storyline that's been told countless times from the Marvel universe, superheroes and monsters movies, where the line between good and bad is hazy grey.

    Cut above the rest

    B Magazine, Chanun Poomsawai, Published on 12/05/2019

    » We first heard the name Cut The Crab back in 2014 when their single Mai Mee Kam Tob (Without Doubt) was featured in the Future Sound Of Bangkok's envelope-pushing debut compilation. Besides being one of the most forward-thinking records of that year, the compilation also gave us a sample of what local talents were capable of. Along with eclectic artists ranging from DCNXTR and Gramaphone Children (Jaree Thanapura) to Nolens.Volens. and Plastic Section, Cut The Crab stood out among the gifted bunch as a highly promising newcomer with a keen ear for electro-pop brilliance. Even though the band hasn't been exactly prolific over the past few years, the trio-turned-duo are now back at it with the release of their self-titled debut EP, a six-track collection that's been nearly half a decade in the making.

    Keeping it real

    B Magazine, Published on 09/02/2020

    » Thailand can be dubbed the land of kuay tio (Chinese noodle) dishes. But we know very little about how they came into existence. It is known that kuay tio nuea (beef noodle soup) was created about a century ago in Chinatown, where a large number of migrant Chinese workers sold their cheap labour loading goods using their bare shoulders or pulled carts. Homeless and desperate, they took refuge in temporary shelters or storage warehouses at night. They went for the cheapest food, which was boiled pig or cow intestines with steamed rice. Peddlers sold the food in front of an opium den, where many labourers went to sleep at night after eating dinner.
