The Love Of Siam

Yesterday night , While surfing forums at crunchyroll , i came across a Thailand movie title and went to search on youtube

The name of the movie was " The Love of Siam "


It was a gay love movie made in Thailand , yesh , u did not see wrong , it was a gay love movie. but to me personally , after watching the movie TWICE , i found it was rather a movie of deep friendships and affection.

I had to watch the movie twice to understand certain things the director was trying to bring across. The acting and gestures and all were great =) Same scene i watched twice , it gave me different aspiration and meaning about life.

duno where i got this quote from, think was some comments by the viwers in youtube -

" Love is an evolved form of emotional attachment that transcends sexual attraction of the physical form "

Love the story line , the way the female lead and the male leads acted in the movie. And i love the theme song too !

If after u watched the movie , u might feel the same as me , different aspects of the movie enlightens u in one way or another.

From the movie , i learn happiness between family members never to be taken for granted. Like the male lead "Mew" , he was living alone for 5 years ever since his grandmother passed away.How many people can withstand the sorrows and all ? The friendship / love between the two male leads " Mew " and " Tong " was so deep and strong, they understand each other and cared for each other . No one else understands their relationship . They had love for each other but gave it up for the fact that it was wrong.

" I can't be with you as your boyfriend , but it does not mean i do not love you"

Different characters in the movie had different stories and meaning behind it , i find this movie very interesting as it is rather the 1st movie that i wanted to watch twice to understand the hidden meaning. I felt i had "grown" with the movie.

To some people , might feel disgusted with "gay" movie and all , but to me this is a movie about friendship.

" multi-layered family drama, a controversial element of the story is a gay romance between two teenage boys. "

If u wana check the movie out
