We wouldn't want the Thai people having any possibility of... well informed opinion or knowledge, would we, so best ban thinking and speech. What's that saying? "Ignorance is bliss".

But is ignorance really so wonderful and worth striving for? Why is the possibility of knowledge so threatening? To whom?

My suspicion is that it's the ignorant, worthless opinions that this sort of irrational nonsense forces on Thai citizens that is a major cause of the current divisions in society.

i bet if they'd made a pro (in power) party film, they would even promote is as a "work of art"
don't let them silence you people of Thailand.

Ong-Bak was much cooler anyway.

Wow.. Censorship absolutely has to die

And so, The Curse lives on. Once again, an attempt to present The Scottish Play encounters disaster. As an old thespian, I'm not really surprised.
That issue aside, I agree that censorship sucks arse, and unwashed arse at that.

eujeeves

Haven't seen the movie, but generally censorship has nothing to do with Thaksin or this goverment...It has to do with...you know who... Article 112...m'kay...

Lady Macbeth would be proud. Next step, kill Banquo (the producers)

Just put them in jail for 15 years (Thai style)...

Political censorship ultimately weakens a country because problems not discussed fester.


jhardcastle91

AlgaeNymph

I know it's the play-that-dare-not-be-named (see Scottish Trope) but this is ridiculous.

Censorship in the country that brought us ladyboy prostitutes? Absurd.

DaveBrennanz
lol I find it funny that THIS play was actually FUNDED by the LAST Government which is now in opposition, I guess who's ever in power controls the media.
