The movie "Cam" marks the return of Lam Thanh My after a period of stopping acting to focus on studying.
Lam Thanh My plays Cam - a girl with an ugly appearance. The actress was made up with a deformed, scary face.
When Cam was possessed by a demon and her face was restored, she haunted people with her sly smile, chubby face but creepy expression.
In real life, Lam Thanh My has a pretty appearance, a round face that is said to look like a high school student.
The young actress shared that Cam is a special role that marks the maturity of her career. "With Cam, I see maturity in the way I act, the way I work, everything is done more carefully and meticulously than in other roles I have participated in," Lam Thanh My confided.
Lam Thanh My's performance on the big screen is impressive. Having experience in the horror genre, Lam Thanh My was praised for her transformation compared to when she was young, and for her good portrayal of the contrasting nuances of the character Cam.
Lam Thanh My was born in 2005 but many audiences still call her "ghost baby". She used to be a famous child actress, loved for her roles as Man in "I see yellow flowers on green grass", Ai in "Soul snatcher", Linh in "Super thief"...
Thanks to her roles in the horror films "Soul Snatching", "Shadow", and "Thien Linh Cai", she was dubbed "the ghost baby of Vietnamese cinema".
After the movie "Bong De", Lam Thanh My focused on studying and rarely participated in entertainment activities. The former child star shared happy moments of going to school and enjoying a simple life with family and friends.
Lam Thanh My said that her childish face and figure are both advantages and disadvantages when acting in films. If she plays a schoolgirl or a young girl, the audience will be impressed with her.
However, because of her younger appearance than her real age, Lam Thanh My is still mistaken for being in middle or high school, even though she is 19 years old.
Currently, Lam Thanh My is studying Public Relations at Thang Long University.
After 2 years of suspending artistic activities to focus on studying for high school graduation exams, Lam Thanh My returns with the female lead role of Cam in the movie of the same name.
"Cam" is described as a horror version of the fairy tale Tam Cam, which is familiar to many generations of audiences. The film's content still revolves around two sisters Cam (played by Lam Thanh My) and Tam (Rima Thanh Vy).
In this film version, Cam was born with an ugly face and was rejected by her family and villagers. Meanwhile, Tam is a kind girl who is always there to comfort and protect her younger sister.
The event that completely changes the lives of Tam and Cam happens when Bach Lao (Meritorious Artist Hanh Thuy) - a supernatural evil force appears, causing horrific deaths in the village.
