How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies
New York Asian Film Festival 2024
July 12 - 22, 2024
An emotional sucker punch masquerading as a snarky domestic charmer, this massive Thai box office phenomenon smuggles profundities about life, death and family into the soul like a Trojan Horse.
An emotional sucker punch masquerading as a snarky domestic charmer, this massive Thai box office phenomenon smuggles profundities about life, death and family into the soul like a Trojan Horse. It’s a mismatch made in comedic heaven – megastar Billkin as the slacker supreme quitting the rat race to become full-time caregiver for his irascible grandma. But their initial bristling masks a deeper rapport. A masterclass in milking laughs from life’s bitter pills evolves into a transcendent, emotional awakening sparked by their contradictory life perspectives. Beneath the surface humor emerges a piercing distillation of life’s final chapters and the sacred, intergenerational bonds only family can forge. Exquisitely shaded personal dramas lend texture, as the director pirouettes through hairpin emotional turns with acrobatic grace. You’ll stagger out of this gem spiritually smitten to the core.
