With the film "S up Dragon's Water", actress La Van Hi continues to affirm her seriousness when transforming into Duong Le Tu in the frozen scene - one of the most emotional climaxes of the film. Without dialogue, the actor can still convey the pain and despair of the character through his eyes and small movements on his face.
To demonstrate the process of changing the state from the time of freezing to melting ice, La Van Hi has controlled the facial muscles and breathing in a sophisticated way: the eyelids and eyelashes are completely immobile during the "frozen" period, then when the ice gradually melted, the eyelashes and fingers of Mr. Tetsuan are shaking, the area around the eyes look red as if blood is slowly flowing back. This sophistication makes the audience admire him, showing his ability to get into character in every small detail.
Not only stopping at technique, La Van Hi also impresses with her professional working spirit. In the opening scene of the film, when his character wore black clothes and played with a pack of tourists on the roof, the film crew had to film all night in negative temperatures, the location was deep in the mountains. While many crew members had to wear thick life jackets to prevent the cold, La Van Hi only wore a thin layer of silk, enduring cold for hours to complete the filming. He continuously performed many times, persevered until he achieved the most perfect frame. This sacrifice is noted.
The image of the actor standing in the cold wind, paying attention to every movement, moved and admired the entire crew at the Hoanh Diem studio. Many behind-the-scenes staff shared that they were "comfortable and loved" La Van Hi's dedication and professional discipline.
With her constant efforts and dedication, La Van Hi is considered a familiar face in the historical film genre. However, he was still criticized for his appearance. Despite having a beautiful face, the actor was criticized for being quite weak. Many audiences advised him to gain weight to better suit the character's appearance.
