Better than the series just because shorter and with less time wasted on PPLs and time fillers and incomprehensible plotlines. This was very cute.

The six boys go to countryside to finish filming Wat's short movie for the competition. The two couples are sort of on honeymoon. But Akk is unhappy since Aye seems to have forgotten his birthday. Yeah right! A surprise is planned and it is obvious to everyone except to the person concerned who thinks Aye does not love him anymore. So they argue and they bicker and they make up only to bicker some more and so on .
The running theme here is the cinema, starting with Brokeback Mountain reference and then reenacting scenes from famous Thai movies and probably others I missed. I love it when they do that in dramas (that id THE only thing I liked about Theory Of Love!).


First as Akk is amazing: his smile can light a thousands christmas trees. He is a talented actor and I hope he stops playing high schoolers because he was just amazing as adult in Midnight Chicken. But I am sorry to say, I still think Khaotung cannot act: he smirks, pouts, sneers and I find him rather creepy. He can sing. That's about it!

The whole plotline about the birthday surprise was to say the least cruel and thoughtless. Not cute. They are teens, just starting to date, not certain of each other feelings and wanting to be reassured and Akk has none of it coming from his boyfriend. Aye does speak nicely to him on occasion only to go back to being insensitive jerk. Akk is unhappy and has trouble hiding his disappointment. Eventually, Aye sort of apologizes saying that pranks is what he loves doing! I think there is time and place for that, not at the start of a relationship. Which in any case seems doomed since Aye is going to study abroad and Akk does not want to go with him.

The second couple Khan & Thua are also plagued by problems because Khan is too attentive so much so that Thua finds it suffocating. So we have two extreme examples of couples: Khan is paying too much attention while Aye not enough. These problems, make Wat the director realize, were two sides of the same coin and uses it to finish his movie which allows boys to finally talk to each other.
Wat's love life is left in the limbo since he is seriously crushing on his teacher. It would be interesting to see them together a few years down the line (like after he graduates from university?).

The cinematography is stunning: it looks a lot like a number of WayuFilm short movies (Country Boy). The colours are warm and everything has such a calming effect: the water, the mist, the forest, the hills.....Sometimes it looks like it was made by two different directors: when some actors are in frame, the mood shifts from dreamy to whatever, somehow their timing seems off and it is not complementary to the scenery or the whole mood.

In spite of all the flaws I found, this was way better than the series: it was fluffy, steamy and pretty. Almost perfect.
