THAI FILM AWARDS, CONTROVERSY, OVER

Wisekwai's got full coverage of the Thai Film Awards (the Suphannahong Awards) that were given out last night. THE TIN MINE took the "Best Picture" slot with NECROMANCER, HIT MAN FILE and BEAUTIFUL, WONDERFUL PERFECT cleaning up most of the rest of the slots.

Actress Napakapa Nakprasit won "Best Supporting Actress" for ART OF THE DEVIL 2, even though she probably wasn't at the awards since she was protesting not being nominated for "Best Actress" since her part was a lead role. Five Star Entertainment had protested this on her behalf and they were uninvited from the ceremony as a result. So who did win "Best Actress"? Wisekwai says it best:

"The best actress winner was Narawan Techratanaprasert, 8-year-old daughter of Sahamongkol chief Somsak Techratanaprasert, who is also the head of the Federation of the National Film Association, which hands out the awards."

I had it wrong. Sathida Khiewcha-um, from Beautiful, Wonderful, Perfect won the best supporting actress trophy. Napakapa, better known as Mamee, withdrew her nomination out of protest, so it would have been impossible for her to win.
