In the movie " Get Rich with Ghosts ", Mr. Dao, played by Meritorious Artist Hoai Linh, worked as a priest, specializing in beautifying bodies and bringing the deceased to their final resting place.
His wife died early, so he raised Lanh (Tuan Tran) alone to adulthood. However, Mr. Dao did not expect that his son, who was still good and gentle, promising his father that he would study and work at the same time to get a high school diploma, would suddenly fall apart and indulge in cockfighting. The guy even made a deal with a ghost to get rich.
Every time Lanh earned money, in return, Mr. Dao also suffered corresponding injuries. Meritorious Artist Hoai Linh said: “To talk about this role, Linh has three keywords: "religion", "life" and "pain". Up to this point, this is probably Linh's most beaten and tortured role.
The male artist further revealed that there were scenes that only lasted 30 seconds or a minute, but the crew filmed them for 4-5 hours, even all day.
Meritorious Artist Hoai Linh shared scenes of being tortured but felt "happy" when she had to carry Lanh. He said: "That scene made me very tired because I weighed more than 50kg, but had to carry a 1.8 meter tall child."
Director Trung Lun added: "Many people said I should recalculate the camera angle, not afraid of Mr. Linh fainting. Anh Linh in that scene had to carry Tuan Tran who fell down and then stood up, filming dozens of times, which I did not agree with.
To the point where Mr. Linh felt uncomfortable with himself. Mr. Linh even begged Tuan Tran to continue filming because he was afraid that everyone would get tired of him.
Tuan Tran himself also had to admire his predecessor's determination: "Ba Linh had to carry Tuan a distance of 200 meters, which was better than running track and field. Dad carried me back and forth about 20 times. At that time, it was pouring rain, and Linh's father called out: "Try to let me go, son, but I'm too tired." I agree and try my best."
The movie "Get Rich with Ghosts" is scheduled to premiere on August 30, 2024 in theaters nationwide.
