สันติ-วีณา (1954)

豆知識

Santi-Vina is a 1954 Thai Bildungsroman film directed by Khru Marut. It was produced by Ratana Pestonji and Robert G. North, with American sponsorship, and won major awards at the Asia Pacific Film Festival in Tokyo. Widely regarded as a classic, it was the first Thai film to be shot in 35-mm color, but was considered lost until its rediscovery in 2014 and subsequent restoration.

Production

Santi-Vina was produced by Thai filmmaker Ratana Pestonji and American Robert North through the Thai-American venture Far East Film (under the trademark Hanuman Film). The cooperation was part of American sponsorship of Thai cinema during the Cold War, and the company was considered by some sources to be a front for CIA activities in the country (North, who had been a writer with Twentieth Century Fox, reportedly had CIA affiliations).
