‘How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies’ Review: Congenial Dramedy Taps Into Filial Piety and the Need to Cherish Those We Love
A local blockbuster, director Pat Boonnitipat's ‘How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies’ set attendance records across Southeast Asia.
With an engaging cast led by dimpled actor and pop singer Putthipong “Billkin” Assaratanakul and 78-year-old Usha “Taew” Seamkhum, it renders universal the central message of cherishing those we love while there is still time. Meanwhile, Sew’s purposeless, live-at-home son, who goes by the name M (Assaratanakul), volunteers to take on Grandma’s care, not because he wants to repay the older woman who partially raised him, but because he imagines she might leave him her house. The main thing that feels out of place in the lengthy running time is a subplot involving M’s photogenic paternal cousin Mui (gorgeous actress and model Tontawan “Tui” Tantivejakul) as a skilled nurse who is every old person’s dream granddaughter.
