streamable Mae Nak films
I'm always curious about the ways different (sub)cultures find to tell their stories, so the many Mae Nak adaptations seemed an interesting way to learn about this within a culture and across time. Didn't expect to find subtitles for most, but hey a familiar story is great for language learning. Did not expect, however, that it would be so difficult to find more than two traditional Mae Nak films in the first place. So here's a list of what I've found so far to stream, starting with films and expanding.
If you know where to find others, please please please share this with me :)
