Filmmaker Pat Boonnitipat tells Deadline about the capturing the grief and joy for Thai box office hit 'How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies'
Directed and co-written by Pat Boonnitipat, the story follows a teenage slacker named M (played by popular singer-actor Putthipong “Billkin” Assaratanakul) who devises a plan to take care of his terminally ill grandmother (Usha Seamkhum) in hopes to win her inheritance. DEADLINE: Speaking of time, this film is interesting because it is very much in the category of “Slice of Life.” There’s not necessarily this huge climax in a traditional sense; it’s just following the daily goings-on of this Thai family with an ailing grandmother.
