"The Good Woman of the story is Aoi. In Thai, her name means 'sugar cane' or 'sweet' - not her real name but the one she uses. She works as a prostitute, catering to the male tourists who crowd the girlie bars of Patpong. "They stayed at a seedy hotel in the red-light district. Much of the filming and video recording took place there, and in the months that followed he fell in love with her." "He paid and was her customer. She became the subject of his film." Starting from this worst possible condition, Aoi's life is described and their relationship is recorded: its evolution from fake sexual intimacy to collusion in the process of making the film, and finally to difficult friendship and a kind of love."
For those of you that aren't familiar with Dennis O'Rourke, The Good Woman of Bangkok is definitely his most controversial documentary. Some have called it exploitative sleaze - with O'Rourke taken advantage of his prostitute subject - others consider it a brilliant piece of filmmaking. While I love the film, I think my opinion lies somewhere between the two different standpoints. Shot in Thailand, O'Rourke follows Aoi, a local prostitute. We are given depressing, unpleasant and enlightening insights into the world of Thai prostitution - we see both the women who sell themselves and the tourists, like O'Rourke himself, who buy it.
