rdf:langString Sunset at Chaophraya (Thai: คู่กรรม, Khu Kam) is a 1995 romantic-drama film directed by Euthana Mukdasanit. Adapted from the novel Khu Kam by Thommayanti, the story is a love triangle, set in World War II-era Thailand, and depicts the star-crossed romance between an Imperial Japanese Navy officer and a Thai woman who is involved with the Free Thai resistance. Singer Thongchai "Bird" McIntyre stars as the Japanese officer Kobori, reprising his role from a popular, 26-episode television series in 1990 that was based on the book. Aside from the 1990 series, the story has been adapted numerous times, including a film in 1973, another film in the 1988 and a musical play in 2003 by Dreambox Theatre in Bangkok that was revived in 2007. One of top five box office hits in Thailand in 1995, this film was among the first Thai films to gain overseas distribution for home video, with an English-subtitled VHS release in 1998.
