Rocked up to this masterpiece – the Bridge over the River Kwai – in Kanchanaburi three years ago, whistling the Colonel Bogey March with hallucinogenic images of Alec Guinness emerging from the jungle. I was plastered at the time, decked out in Khakis and looking like I’d emerged from the inferno. Transcendental moments.
Mel was there on military service but did not take photos! aargh…its now in the ageing grey matter…if only there is technology to extract images from the brain…
