My Take

Ray MacDonald sits right at the heart of Thai cinema's most exciting era, and that's why I rate him so highly. Winning Best Actor at the national film awards two years running, in 1997 and 1998, he anchored Fun Bar Karaoke, Pen-Ek Ratanaruang's debut, and O-Negative alongside Tata Young. Those weren't safe commercial choices; they were the films that announced a bold new wave of Thai auteurs to the world. An adventurer and presenter too, he's clearly restless and versatile, but what I value most is his instinct for backing risky, distinctive directors with his whole body. He helped Thai film travel.
