Among the 11 characters of the movie "Tho oi!!", Trung Kim played by Tran Thanh is the most curious face. Not because of his outstanding image, nor because of his star status, but because the way this character appears is completely "reverse" compared to the rest: not avoiding, not covering, but directly looking straight at his own mask.
From that detail, it can be predicted that Trung Kim is a character with psychological depth and influence on the entire storyline. This is not a noisy person, expressing emotions outside, but a person who thinks a lot, self-questions a lot and often asks questions about themselves. The gaze in the poster evokes the feeling of a person facing their true self, instead of just acting for others to see.
In the "Owray Rabbit!!" world, where everyone wears masks, Trung Kim may be the one who is most aware that he is wearing a mask - a main villain of the film.
Another possibility is that Trung Kim plays the role of "observator" - a character standing in the middle of relationships, grasping a lot of information but not rushing to speak up. This is often the most dangerous type of character in psychological films, because they do not create direct conflicts, but silently control the emotions and behaviors of those around them.
Trung Kim not using a mask as a prop but looking straight at it shows that he does not want to run away, but is considering: continue to hide or dare to live truthfully.
If placed in the logic of the script, Trung Kim is likely someone who has been deeply hurt. Such characters often choose to remain silent, keep their distance, appear calm, but inside is a complex layer of emotions: skepticism, caution, even fear of being seen through. Masks in this case are not only to cover up others, but also to protect themselves.
Notably, among the young cast, Tran Thanh is the only one with a mature, experienced image. This makes Trung Kim easily built as a type of "psychological axis" of the film: not needing to appear the most, but each appearance carries depth and a feeling of spiritual burden.
With the movie "Thỏ ơi!!", Tran Thanh seems to be aiming for a role with few words, many inner feelings - where acting lies in eyes, breathing and silence.
