Movies Watched -- Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives (2010)

In Thai … 114 minute running time so at least 20 or 30 minutes too long … I don’t know whom I have to blame for this one, it wasn’t a John Farr recommendation … I don’t get Thai culture, they’re apparently into ghosts and mysticism and it’s all a bit bizarre … the movie is about a guy who is dying of kidney failure and his club-footed sister-in-law is around during his last days and his wife’s ghost appears and his lost son reappears (in the form of a monkey) … there’s a scene where a princess is screwed by a catfish — you see what I’m saying about the weirdness? It’s just no good, terrible really. Give it a miss.
