Thai and Malay film is so interesting to me, what little I know about it. To me, it seems like an influence of New Taiwan Cinema but I'm sure it's not so much of an influence as it's just the way that it is in South Asia. This film is mostly just about a vague idea, that being Weerasethakul's memories of growing up in hospitals, as both of his parents were doctors. The film faced censorship for depicting doctors drinking alcohol and kissing among other slightly less trivial things. It's interesting, the country's values.

I wouldn't recommend reading this if you plan to see the film. Comparing Phantom Thread to PT Anderson's other works yields interesting results. Despite how different I find this film to be I feel like it's actually made me a fan of PTA. I'm not even sure why I like this movie, there's seemingly nothing about this film that isn't surface level. There's a moment right at the end that is presented as if it's supposed to be a twist and... it's not? It's just... something. But I was always intrigued, always wondering what the characters were thinking, where it was going next. I was never bored.
