THAILAND REVIVING THE 70’S VIBE IN ‘THE MOON’

Slated for release this 21st July in Thailand is ‘THE MOON’, a biography flick of Pumpuang Duangjan or 'Poompuang Moon' who is praised as Queen of Thai country music (Luuk Thung). Luuk Thung, translates literally as children of the fields, is a commercial country music style that's actually a blend of a few different Thai folk and traditional forms of music. Pumpuang Duangjan herself was an example of what is both exciting and tragic about the countryside in Thailand. Her journey is a 'rags to riches story' of an illiterate peasant girl who achieved legendary status as the 'Queen of Luuk Thung' is of almost mythical proportion. She was an incredible singer with great style who inspired many people, but her formal education ended at the age of eight. She enjoyed the respect and adoration of millions, but tragically died young in 1992 (at the age of 31) of a kidney failure. Next is the trailer for the film that’s shining with the 70’s vibe and style.
