Sex Phone and the Girl Next Door, known in Thai as Sex Phone / คลื่นเหงา / สาวข้างบ้าน ('sex phone / lonely wave / girl next door') is the second film directed by Heyman Cheatamee, following Body Jumper, with Chalermpol Bunnag as co-director. The film stars Kawee Tanjararak and Paula Taylor and was released on June 6, 2003.[1] Despite receiving positive reviews, the film only grossed 26 million baht due to limited theater screenings.[2]
Plot Summary
The film tells the story of Due (Kawee Tanjararak), a mild-mannered radio DJ who lives with his grandfather (Somchai Samipak), and Jay (Paula Taylor), a confident mixed-race woman living with her best friend. The two are neighbors who have never gotten along. However, when Jay’s friend Emma (Orarik Jaruwat) gives Jay’s phone number to a radio station called The Lonely Wave, hosted by DJ Man (Anan Boonnak), where Due works as an assistant, misunderstandings arise.
One night, when Due is forced to host the show, he calls Jay’s house, leading to a mix-up where Jay mistakes him for a "sex phone" operator. After that night, Jay becomes an overnight sensation. She later calls into the show to confront Due on New Year’s Eve, but the two eventually become close friends—unaware that they are actually the neighbors who dislike each other.
