THE OVERTURE TRAILER

Last year's Thai submission for Best Foreign Film Oscar was THE OVERTURE and Kino is giving it a US theatrical release next month. They've got the trailer posted here and you can see it's a tasteful, well-appointed movie that Merchant Ivory could have had something to do with. Too bad the trailer glosses over the best part of the movie which is the absolutely loco, fire-shooting-up, kung-fu-style xylophone battles which were parodied hilariously in BANGKOK LOCO.
