"Right By Me" is a Thai film that proves that not only does Thailand have a highly evolved, mega-technically proficient film industry; it also has evolved a cinematic culture that is vibrant enough to support independent works with more heart than expertise. It's a classic coming of age, coming out movie. The focus is on the lives of three friends. The first is Thailand's version of Jack McFarlan from "Will & Grace," the second is the well rounded "everyman," and the third is the conflicted jock from the wrong side of the tracks who has a girlfriend, but really likes boys. There are no suprises and the acting is generally on a par with a middle school production of "Arsenic and Old Lace." It's a sweet film in spite of this, and not a bad way to while away an hour and half on a raining day off!
