I don't think a new version can beat 2008. Ken's protrayal as Kawee will forever remain epic. He was the only actor out of the three that did justice to the aggressive but vulernable Kawee. His emotions were so raw and his acting exceeded the skyline. If you dislike it for the multiple rape scenes, you are definitely missing out on what makes Sawan Bieng 2008 truly unique and special. The dialouge was just incredible, my heart ached, I laughed, I cried and I fell in love. It was one hell of a roller coaster ride.
