Watch Nat Geo documentary instead. They filmed everything and it was so compelling and gripping to watch the real rescue divers, navy seals and volunteers.

As a Thai. The look the feel, weather, bureaucracy. I love it when the Northerner speak their dialect, which is different to Central. The mess the tents, the people, i can smell the atmosphere there. and thank you so much to have the farmer in there.

Ron Howard has such an artisan’s eye. His Masterclass is one of the few which are worth it by the way. You can also see his passion for teaching (actors and viewers) in this exact video.
