Fan Chan - My Girl
Jeab was an effeminate child who
always played with Noi-Na when
they were small because their houses were close together and there
werent many other kids around. Adolescence changed Jeabs
immediate social group and he started hanging around with other
boys, and even agreed to torment the other girls -- including
Noi-Na -- at his friends behest. Noi-Na was understandably upset
and angry and her family moved to another province a week later.
Jeab didnt see her after that, but then one day he received an
invitation to Noi-Nas wedding. He wants to attend her special day,
of course, but how can he live down the shame of his earlier,
irresponsible actions?

A great film looking back at those days of childhood which seem
somehow nostalgic despite the fact that it was in no way similar to
a farang upbringing. But my thai friend who originate from the
country say it's a great representation of thai childhood. The
soundtracks good, the actors are great, the script hilarious.

down the memory lane...will watch it the third time soon and will

heart as one of the best movie couples...hehe

The movie's great! Reminds me of that Bee Gees sound-tracked Melody
film of 1973 that explored childhood, love and marriage. Btw, can
anybody tell if the hair-cutting had any significance? Does it give
an indication why the Noi-na's family moved away? The reason for
this was not given in the movie. Thanks! (Reply

I have just seen this movies. It is very interesting and reminds me
of the past childhood days. Very entertaining. It is a very simple
story but it is great. This is better than most of the commercial
movies now showing, which has less substance.

the movie was really very nice to watch. although i dun understand
the langauge, but the way they express, talk , action really make
mi laugh, cry and sad. the two main cast really make the movie
alive! i have enjoy a great show or what should i said that i have
been forcus for a movie beside Titanic other than this. this movie
can said that it really change my life style. I really enjoy the
movie very much. Hope i can see more of this kind of production

I got to see this movie even b4 it will be released on march 18.
singapore is the third country to watch it.....i haf to say it's a
privilege. I even had the chance to attend the network session wif
the directors of this movie, it was nice to meet them.....Even
though i do not understand thai, they had subtitles which i tot was
great. I really felt that the movie was great and wonderful. i'm a
great fan of this movie. The kids in the movie can really act. The
movie is very funny, sad as well as sweet. The ending was the best,
everyone expected to see noi nah's face to knoe how she looked when
she was grown up, but instead they showed the young noi nah. I felt
tat it was a different ending and a good one as well. As a video
production student and an aspiring director, i feel tat the movie
as well as the young directors are an inspiration. Definitely a
movie which everyone should watch......i rate it 4.5/5........i
would give it a perfect score but i feel tat there is still some
stuff tat can be improved. Great Movie !!!!

Fan Chan - Was one of the best Thai movies I ever watched. My only
wish is that it will one day be released with English subtitles as
I cannot understand Thai. I wathced the movie at Central World
Plaza which is one of the few theaters in Thailand which adds
English subtitles toThai films. Great movie, Great
Story............. English subtitles please................

I have limited Thai but the movie was great....I want to watch it
again with someone Thai...really brought back even a farangs
childhood. Petchuburri was a good place to film it too....

Fan Chan - This is my favorite Thai movie from last year. It is
about a young man who looks back to his childhood and regrets that
maybe he should have made some better decisions in his life. The
flashback is provoked by the news that his childhood sweetheart is
about to get married. He wonders if he had done some things
differently as a child it might be him getting married now. The
child actors in the movie are all natural and have done a wonderful
job.
