Ladies and gentlemen, I write to you in a state of melancholy, having just received word of three recent deaths in the Bangkok movie theater world. The Mongkol Rama of Saphan Kwai, the Asia Rama of Pranakon and the Ngamwongwan Theater of Ngamwongwan have all apparently gone out of business.
RIP
Mongkol Rama 1963-2010
Asia Rama 1974-2009
Ngamwongwan Theater 1978-2010
Many thanks to Nantawat for delivering the grim news.
I just know learn that BKK has old cinemas and I am looking forward to visit them next week. Any recommendations which I should visit ? Is there any that runs old Asian movies ?
Click the link above for the Apex theaters at Siam Square. They're all beautiful, world class movie theaters in the heart of Bangkok. If you have the chance, definitely check them out.
You'll have a harder time finding a place that screens old Asian movies, however.
