This is a very slow and intense movie. It obviously has very beautiful pictures. The main characters are two women who seem to be totally diffrent, but strong in their own way. The end really wakes you up!

I like this way of viewing people, looking at women inside. I amazed when I knew the director is a female, besides she's in Thailand. I didn't know what kind of a movies made in that country, but once I saw this, I'd be da**ed! I could say this will be a good study for us. A women who suffered by some domestic violence. Relationship between man and a woman, how one big social influence easily erode one person, the shape of depressed feelings etc. She, the director didn't explain nothing by a word, she just express. The film is quiet but eloquence, got strong impression(at least, it works for me). Both 2 actresses are excellent also. I'd like to recommend this film worldwide, who loves art films. Like Antonioni or Bresson or some like them.

Anyway the two movies presented were a hit and a miss, and One Night Husband turned out to be a bad miss. If many in the audience had their eyes closed at one point or another, or become fidgety in their seats, my opinion is that whatever is transpiring on screen, doesn't have enough of what it takes to hold an audience's attention. While the production value is good, it adopted the look and feel of an art movie about contemplation, isolation, and whatever that you would reckon the need for long silent moments.

It begins with enough mystery to sustain anyone's attention - a newly wed couple consummating their marriage, except that after doing the deed, the groom walks out of the home after receiving an anonymous phone call. This leaves the bride Sipang (Nicole Theriault, a Thai pop star) perplexed, and she becomes anxious in finding out where her husband disappeared to after days of absence.

However the movie seemed to junk this plot aside for a preference to dwell into her seeking of help from her brother in law Chat (Pongpat Wachirabunjong) and his wife Bussaba (Siriyakorn Pukkavesh), and from hereon, the focus is on the friendship developed between the two women, and probably if it fell into directors who are seduced by the GLBT themes of late, the relationship will dwell deeper than the platonic level.

While the loose ends do get tied, the journey is trying. Unless you're a serious art movie lover, you might find many scenes in the movie pretty contrived and probably trying too hard. Essentially, the entire story is short film material, bloated only to include beautifully filmed moments of the mundane.

good movie but not great if u want to study the movie this one is kindda cool. if u could past the first hour without sleeping u will like it so take some rest before go to watch this movie cause it's very slow and very boring for the story line that for no reason. in the end really wake u up.i give 8/10 to this very slow movie.
