Leh Pummared (2005)

Oh my god.

Where to start off with this lakhorn?
It is a trainwreck, a ticking time bomb waiting to explode. We have a Anti-hero named Pummared (played by Pong Nawat) that is handsome, arrogant,clever, manipulative and so seductive that he is able to catch the heart of three sisters. His game of deception and seduction for his quest for revenge is a highly addictive journey-because you keep wait for the axe to fall. For him to break apart and realize that it is him who has been deceieved all along-his whole life. He was groomed for this plan of revenge, it was all he knew. All he thought he was destined for. And it was all a lie. He ruined the life of three innocent sisters for a lie.

Between the three sisters, it is the middle sister Noy (played by Pimmada Boriruk) that cathes him by surprise. He finds himself unwillingly falling for her sharp spirit and honesty and beauty. She knows his game and wants none of it. (there is a moment between them i find so darn romantic: its the nightscene with the fireflies,ahhhh) But at a moment of choice halfway through his journey he still chooses revenge...and that love gets lost to him forever. He marries the oldest sister and leaves her the first night-having taken all her shares of ownerships from her. He also made the youngest sister his secret mistress/wife and even made her pregnant. This is not only it people, this is a catastrophe of all hell dimensions, where every decision has its consuquences.

Pong Nawat at the early stage of his career was still finding his style in acting, and i feel like he did such a great job at portraying a flawed character like Pummared who knew no better than acting on revenge-and being cunning and heartless enough to do ANYTHING to get to his goal. His character is still so darn tragic in its essence. Its like the Frankenstein in some sense. He was groomed into thinking the way he does by his father, and when he still hesitated his father was there to manipulate and lie to him again. He was so torn, so darn broken. He knew it would ruin his life, that he never would be free. Ah, what a tragic hero he became. This story broke my heart.
