Contest #2: Thailand Trivia

I have a new contest for you. We were talking about movies filmed in Thailand and some students answered "Anna and the King." Even though this movie is about Thailand, it was NOT filmed in Thailand. Why not? It's a difficult question, but you can find the answer on the internet. As usual, only the first correct answer will get the prize. Remember, the early bird gets the worm.

Satoko:
Well done! You are indeed the first! The Thai government was very upset about the movie, as they thought it was not an accurate picture of Thai history. So, the movie could not be filmed in Thailand. In addition, it couldn't even be shown in Thailand! But, of course it quickly became the #1 pirated movie in Thailand after its release. Good job!
