Left Behind (2014)
Lord, please forgive me for watching this movie
This movie features a strong theme of the western world (specifically American) belief of "God is the only one" and others go to hell.
The world ends and all without sins disappear from the earth. Left behind are the others, this time in an airplane.
Parts of the movie are quite discriminating with regards to other religious beliefs.
I thought multiple times about just stopping the playback of this nonsense. Still watched to the end in the hope that this pseudo-religious flick turns into some meaningful direction. It didn't.
So if you are Jewish, Muslim or simply atheist, don't watch. If you are Christian but don't belief as strong as some sects like Jehovah's Witnesses then don't watch. If you do, then this is the right movie for you.
I am not, so lord, please forgive me for having wasted my time with it.
Pleng khong kao (2014)
Be an observer of the life of rice farmers
In this documentary you will be in the role of an observer of rural rice farmers.
You follow episodes of their life along the course of a year, following the farming of rice. It shows multiple locations all over Thailand but never forgets the topic of rice.
There is no narrator, only a translation of what the people speak. The style of the movie is similar to the previous works of this director.
The lack of an narrator can make it difficult to understand what is going on in a specific scene. Some knowledge of Thailand and traditional life helps to understand the movie better.
