snoop1130 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 THE CAVE – based on the true story of the rescue mission that captivated the world As the first narrative feature film about the events which took place last summer at Tham Luang cave in Chiang Mai province, Northern Thailand, THE CAVE is undoubtedly the most anticipated Thai movie of the year. We interviewed writer/director Tom Waller, who beat Hollywood in telling this story that captivated the world. THE CAVE is released nationwide in Thai cinemas on 28 November 2019, following its World premiere at Busan International Film Festival in October. Why did you decide to make a film about the cave rescue, and why did production start relatively quickly after the rescue? Like everyone else on the planet I was following the news with much anticipation. People watched the events unfold and their hearts were beating. I realised as a Thai filmmaker, that I was in a unique position to tell this story from a unique perspective. What angle does the film focus on? The film focuses on the volunteer spirit of the rescuers, following the untold personal stories of those unsung heroes involved in the mission to bring out the trapped boys and their coach from the cave.

khaowong1 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I saw one small notice in my local newspaper about the movie, then nothing. Oh yeah, a really big deal. Pfffff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaowong1 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I just now looked through the movie listings for the Phoenix Metro area, gone. I'm pretty sure it was here a week ago. I guess it didn't captivate Arizona much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexRich Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I see the TV curmudgeon’s got in before me? Amazing story ... the world came together for once and achieved something incredible ... just a pity a brave man died in the process. I’m going to watch it.

champers Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Another opportunity for the wider world to see Britain spearheading the rescue attempt, seemingly to the churlish envy of those not fortunate to be from those sceptered isles.
