I can understand Chinese fans' love for "Tropical Diseases". In my opinion, this is the Thai version of "The Liang Zhu", except that it ends with "Huahu".
Beast Story is Director Bong's distinctive mark. Director Bang said: "The local people in Ethan (Northeast Thailand) believe that humans and animals will reincarnate and reincarnate." Just like the moment when "Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives" won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 2010, Abi Chapang thanks "the dead and ghosts of Thailand". Bang Dao is from Ethan, so there will be Laos and Ethan at the beginning of "Bumi". The Ethan people are actually Lao people. Compared with the central Thai people, the Ethan people are no different from returning to the original jungle.
It is easy to understand his films if you understand the background of Bong Director's upbringing.
The corpse at the beginning of "Tropical Diseases" refers to the boy Atong. The corpse leaves the forest from the bottom left of the screen, and the naked boy (reincarnated as a tiger) enters the forest from the bottom left of the screen.
After Atong died, he returned to the forest and was reincarnated as a tiger. Akon went to the forest to pursue. At the end, Akon will also be accompanied by a tiger's love. Persistent love is like Liang Zhu.
It's too tiring to be a human being, it's better to go back to the basics and be a tiger. Movies make dreams.
