If you enjoyed Satree Lek (Iron Ladies) - the hit comedy movie abut the Thai katoey volleyball champions, then keep your eye out for Beautiful Boxer, a new movie about Parinya Charoenphol the famous katoey kickboxer.

Parinya rocketed to fame a while ago for his toughness and success in the ring despite his wearing lipstick, and his punishing blows were usually followed up with a kiss after the fight! Parinya is now involved in the cabaret circuit after gender reassignment surgery, reportedly paid for out of the proceeds from his fight wins.

It has all the makings of the type of classic story that the Thais seem to do so well, even though the (Thai) director is now Singapore based according the the Reuter's report!
