119. Butterflies and flowers (1986)


Country: Thailand
Directed by Euthana Mukdasanit

One of the important moments in the history of Thai cinema and, as far I know, the best movie of Euthana Mukdasanit. 'Butterflies and flowers' is a brave film that shows the poverty and the social problems in South of the country, with love and tenderness for the people who got the 'wrong 'path against the morals of society as they were obliged from the social conditions, with a way that is making an almost radical political statement even if it doesn't involve politics directly. Great directing and performances of the young actors , smooth flow of the story , a movie full of memorable moments and great scenes: so we can forget the disappointing end that is really weak , not matching the standards that the film by itself set previously
