Bang Rajan
Bang Rajan 2004
Bang Rajan - Legend Of The Village Warriors is an epic action drama.
Certainly not a new movie, and was available in many countries around the world as a rental DVD.
It is worth profiling, as now there is a version with English language audio and that version is uncut, has been digitally remastered, with Dolby digital sound.
So, those remarkable battles by the villagers, fending off the attacks of the Burmese in 1765, will seem all the more to be taking place in your living room.
Synopsis -
This historical drama from Thailand is based on one of the key historical events in that nation's history.
In 1765, Siam - as Thailand was known at that time, was being invaded by Burmese troops, and only one thing stood in the way of the Burmese army seizing control of the capitol city of Ayutthaya -- the tiny village of Bang Rajan.
Despite the strength of the advancing Burmese forces, the people of Bang Rajan were determined to fight back, and "Taen" Chumphorn Thepphithak leads a band of villagers who have pledged to face down the enemy.
Directed by Thanit Jitnukul.

Province 77 2003
Province 77
Province 77 a crime drama action movie has been around since 2003.
Whilst "Best Thai Movies" has only been on the Net since August 2009, this is a movie I by-passed, as I felt it wrongly suggests that Thai ex-patriots living overseas become involved in crime. Nothing could be further from the truth. At least, here in Australia, Thais are amongst the most law abiding citizens in this country. So remember, this is just a movie.
Synopsis -
Thai Town is a six block area near Hollywood, Los Angeles, which is home to over 50,000 expatriate Thais.
The town is such a gateway for Thais entering America it was dubbed Thailand's 77th Province.
The movie follows a Thai family as it struggles to survive in Los Angeles' fast-paced consumerist culture, while still maintaining traditional values.
The identity struggle between Thai-ness and the high octane way of life on the west coast of America, defined by hip-hop, drugs, street racing and violence, affects Pat, a good boy, tempted by a life of crime, and his sister.
Directed by Smith (Samit) Timsawat - Starring:- Pete Thongchua, Eric Markus Schuetz and Matinee Kingpoyom
This movie has English language audio.

Syndromes And A Century
Syndromes And A Century 2006
Synopsis -
A film in two parts, which sometimes echo each other.
The two central characters are inspired by the film-maker's parents, in the years before they became lovers.
The first part focuses on a woman doctor, and is set in a space reminiscent of the world in which the filmmaker was born and raised.
The second part focuses on a male doctor, and is set in a more contemporary space much like the world in which the filmmaker presently lives.
Pearls of wisdom, descriptions of syndromes and fragments of time crystallize in luminous atmospheres and dot the modern architecture of the film, creating a charming, quiet incantation.
SYNDROMES AND A CENTURY was one of seven films commissioned for the Weiner Mozart New Crowned Hope Festival, Vienna 2006.
Directed by multi award winner Apichatpong Weerasethakul - Starring Nanterat Sawaddikul and Jaruchai Iamaram.
