Not anymore...what a shame...such a highly-acclaimed film won't be shown in its homeland with stupid, unacceptable reasons. I'm pissed.

Great to hear that it is getting an Amazon release. Maybe the Thai public will finally get to see it when the official DVD is bootlegged!

The film was banned because the culture police in Thailand thought things like seeing doctors drink beer or monks play the guitar would have a deleterious effect on the country. (I'm not kidding. Those were two major strikes against it in the eyes of the Thai Ministry of Culture -- they are killing the film industry in Thailand, or doing their best to do so).

What's wrong with doctors drinking beer or monks playing guitar ? It's not against any law or religion !!

Could there be other reasons ?
