Love You to Debt

"Love You To Debt" At first, I thought it was a teenage romcom with forced laughs. Not at all. It's a drama about Thai society viewed through an improbable love between a debtor & debt collector. The movie is a remake of Korean "Man In Love". There are many beautiful scenes, some with influences of Hong Kong movies. Wong Kar-Wai provides inspiration for several scenes.

The movie is more profound than anticipated, giving you good food for thought, entertainment, philosophical perspective on life partnership, or even as a cautionary tale on what not to do in life. In the end, it worms its way to my heart. After watching, it'd be best to be neither a debtor or a lender. And if you are in love, hope the two will make each others' lives better.
