Thought The Deerhunter was the best of the Vietnam crop. Many of the background cast were recruited in and around the Sukhumvit area in BKK, taxi drivers etc.

My Thai wife's picks of many we've seen are "To Kill a Mockingbird" and "Pride and Prejudice". Seem odd but the Thai are very sophisticated in matters of family and neighborhood politics.

If your wife loved this movie, which was very good, you owe it to her to get her the book. One of the best ever.

I'll add "In The Heat Of The Night" (although I love most of Sidney Potiers movies) and "The African Queen" as among my favorites

Speaking of Sidney Potier, "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" was a classic with an all-star cast. And lest I forget the Princess of Monaco, Cole Porter's adaptation of "The Philadelphia Story" - "High Society" also had an all star cast, with Sinatra and Crosby singing a duet, and Louis Armstrong.
