Movie The Lady - LA Times interview of actress Michelle Yeoh -

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/movies/2011/11/the-lady-michelle-yeoh-luc-besson.html

she looks very like Daw Suu but the Burmese voices are all wrong, and "the speech" is incomprehensible to a Burmese speaker -

Besson should have used real Burmese for the voices, even the crowd scenes.

At least Beyond Rangoon had Burmese actors.
