Opening ceremony pictures for 3 TV Scene lakorns

Ae in the weird red and black dress, Oh Petchlada, Donut Manusnun, Benz, Aum Atichart, and Janie

Today, three TV Scene lakorns: Jong Kol King Tien (Trickery of the Rose Balsam, จงกลกิ่งเทียน), Su Yipta (Fight to the End, สู้ยิบตา), and Khun Nu Shantana (Young Master Shantana, คุณหนูฉันทนา) had their opening ceremony and went into production.

Originally, the lead roles for “Jong Kol King Tien (Trickery of the Rose Balsam)” would have been Janie Tienposuwan, Aum Atichart, and “Ae” Issariya Saisanan. Because of scheduling or maybe the role not fitting Aum Atichart, they decided to go with Great Warinton as pra’ek. It is a supernatural lakorn filled with revenge and murder. Several murders, I might add. “Tui” Kiatkamol Latha is the murderous villain and a few of his fans are not too happy about that. Janie is the main nang’ek and Ae is the ghost, who is out for revenge and uses Janie’s body to get back at her husband played by Tui for murdering her and her family for wealth.

The cast and characters for “Jong Kol King Tien (Trickery of the Rose Balsam)”:
“Ae” Issariya Saisanan as Tienkanya
Janie Tienposuwan as Princess Buakamkaew
Great Warinton as Son
“Tui” Kiatkamol Latha as Apphanda
“BOY” Pisanu Nimsakul as Prince Songmeuang
“Tao” Sarocha Watitapun as Ruenjai
Meiji as Pakafah
Paeng Panchanida as Aree
Thrika Thidatit as Princess Bualawong
Tawan as Aunt Lamom
Pitmai as Aunt Charat

Brief synopsis:

Tienkanya believes she has found the man of her dreams and quickly marries him, though the person she trust the most Son disapproves. Son knows the true side of Apphanda.

“Wonderful Town” wins big at the 18th Suphanahong Awards

Aditya Assarat’s movie“Wonderful Town” took home 5 trophies at the Supanahong Awards (Thai Oscars) a few hours ago held at the Thailand Culture Centre, a big win for the Indie flick. Other than vaguely reading about it at Wise Kwai’s Thai movie Blog, I have never seen the film. I might have to hunt it down. From what I gathered from reading Nathan Lee’s NY Times review and random sites about the film, it’s a depressing love story about a female housekeeper Na (Anchalee Saisoontorn ) and a handsome young architect Ton (Supphasit Kansen) set in the tsunami ravaged town of Takua Pa, Thailand.

Did you watch? Sue Rak Chak Yai Onlawon

I totally forgot “Sue Rak Chak Yai Onlawon (Chaotic Matchmaking)” was premiering today. Did anyone watch? I saw caps of it at the Pantip board.

OH MY GOSH, Noon Siraphun’s wig bugs the living bananas out of me. It looks so unnatural. Ummm…girl take it off, I can tell it is a wig.

Noon plays Dream, a young woman who is trying to save her brother’s marriage. Her brother is played by Boy Pisanu and his wife is played by Tik Kanyarat. The couple has a tumultuous relationship, he cheats, she is the jealous type.

Aon Sarawut is Tik’s ex-boyfriend, Witawin. Dream sees him as a threat to her brother’s marriage and I think later on in the lakorn, she marries him.

It’s a romance comedy.

The pra’nang never meet well, do they?

The first time Dream and Witawim meet, she pulls a shotgun at him.

“Trying to steal my horse, Aye? You’re dead.”
