The stage play that we went to was "Love 11 scenes". It's a story of a couple who was first met at a high-school student get together pub. They start to introduce to one another. The story went on how the couple got into the love-sick cycle of life. The got broken hearted from their ex, then fall in love together, getting married, having baby, having hard time raising baby, having lots of argument, divorced, re-married with someone else, get
divorced again, the kid got pregnant and decided to keep the baby, got sick, and die.
It all happened in 11 scenes. I believe it's like the life of many. Khun Sinjai was the leading actress. She is a very famous characters with renown quality of her works. This times she did it again as a 16 year old girl, growing up and growing old into 51 year old woman. It was fun and very entertaining. My wife shed her tears a few times.
Then we went for a new released Thai movie. It's called "Short Memory but Long Love". It a story of two couples with different ages. The young love and the old timer love. The young female have lots of wound from the old high-school sweet heart ex-husb
and. Now led her life as a gardener. With her love of animal, it led her to an old friend who secretly had a heart for her from high school, but to learned that his sweet heart was falling for his close friend (who later turned to be her husband and ex-husband). The couple have to go through many things in
helping animal and the old couple. This is the road that drawn the two to be come lovers at the end.
The story of the old couple was really admirable. It's the symbol of the long lasting friendship that even distance won't keep them apart. The old couple met in a computer training class for senior citizen, where the young boy of the young couple teach. The old couple was living apart. The women is in Bangkok while the men is in Chumpon (6 hours drive from Bangkok). There are many gags that make the audience laugh, sending the heart out to cheer them to overcome all the fear and obstacles. The old couple story was a bit sad that at the end, the old man realized that he had Alzheimer. He would try everything to memorize the love and every moment that he has with the old lady. At the end, the lady has to stay with her son's family in America, while the old man stayed behind with his son in Bangkok. Distance is not the problem as they learned how to chat on MSN from the computer class that they went together.
It was a very good movie. Of course, my wife shed the tears again. It was a very happy feeling after all. Sometimes you wish to forget something, but you can't and sometimes you wish to memorize it forever, but you can't. This is how memry plays the trick.
