On June 29, the film crew of "The Last Bullet" held a press conference to announce the project. The event is part of the series of activities of the 4th Da Nang Asian Film Festival held in Da Nang.
The 4th Da Nang Asian Film Festival (DANAFF IV) takes place from June 28 to July 4, co-organized by the Da Nang City People's Committee and the Vietnam Association for the Promotion of Cinema Development (VFDA).
Not only recreating the journey of shooting legend Hoang Xuan Vinh, the film is a collaboration between a Vietnamese crew and leading names in Korean cinema.
Attending the press conference were director Dinh Tuan Vu, actor Nhan Phuc Vinh, actress Thanh Huong, shooter Hoang Xuan Vinh - the inspiration for the work, along with a large number of actors and film crew.
Watching excerpts recreating his life on screen, athlete Hoang Xuan Vinh shared: "The first time I watched excerpts from a movie about me, I was personally very touched.
Many images in the film brought me back to the time when I was a member of the national shooting team on the journey to conquer the Olympics. Memories from the training and competition process have been recreated by the crew with many realistic details.
In particular, he was impressed with the scene where the character practices by using a long stick to light a candle.
According to the male shooter, this is a real exercise that athletes have performed to train the stability of their arms and concentration.
We set up a candlestick and then carved a bamboo stick about 2-3 meters long, and challenged each other who could light the candlestick fastest. This exercise helps athletes maintain stability so that when holding a gun, they can shoot accurately into round 10," Mr. Vinh recounted.
With the combination of Vietnamese crew and Korean filmmakers, the work is expected to bring an inspiring story, contributing to promoting the image of Vietnamese sports and cinema to a large number of domestic and international audiences.
