Phuong Thanh has had many roles on the big screen and television. |
Phuong Thanh did not hesitate to confess that for a long time she had neglected singing because she had been acting in many movies, so she was “too poor”. For nearly 2 years now, she has not acted in movies anymore and has focused on music. However, when she was invited to this movie, she immediately accepted because when she read the script, she saw that the character the director had chosen for her would be… cursed a lot!
Bingo is a film about the life of Le Lieu, a person who changed gender to live true to herself and worked in a bingo troupe with many life tragedies.
Huu Chau will play the main role - Le Lieu, a man who changes his gender to live his true self. He said he has played many cross-dressing roles on stage, but he is especially cautious when playing cross-dressing on screen because he is afraid that if he doesn't do it well or the makeup isn't good, it will be "disgusting".
The film brings together a cast of veteran actors such as Meritorious Artist Huu Chau, Trung Dan, beauty Nam Em (top 8 of Miss Earth 2016), model - actor Binh Minh, singer Phuong Thanh, Long Nhat...
