The wife of the movie boss 'The One' never checks her husband's phone in real life

Short but brainy role

- The movie "Doc Dao" is loved by the audience, how different and strange is it for you to play the role of the boss's wife?

Up to now, I have often played the roles of shrewish, fierce, and mean, even though in real life I am very gentle. The role of Mrs. Anh - the wife of the boss Quan "old" (Vinh Xuong) is similar, except that this character has many psychological changes. Each scene depicts a different aspect of Mrs. Anh. This is a short role, but the character experiences all the joys, anger, love, and hate in life, requiring me to fully express all the nuances of emotions. This is also a challenge for me.

- The character Anh is a wife who is neglected by her husband and always has to scheme to keep her husband. Does this make it difficult for you?

This type of role is not too difficult for me. However, the time from receiving the role to filming is very fast, so I have to concentrate very much.

I often joke that the movie Doc Dao cost me money for clothes and brainpower. Although it was a bit stressful at times, this role brought a new feeling when working with a young and energetic crew. I felt like I learned things that my generation lacked. Every time I come back, although I am tired, I am very happy.

- What was the most impressive scene for you in "The Way"?

That scene is of Mrs. Anh crying because she was chased abroad by the boss, almost predicting the events that are about to happen to the "old" Quan's family and the fate of the character Anh.

This was really the most tiring scene for me. Mrs. Anh's emotions kept changing, from crying to laughing, from begging to hating and cursing her husband.

I am good-natured and simple-minded.

- Is Thu Huyen fierce and mean in real life like in her roles?

I consider myself gentle, but I'm sure few people believe me. For me, the important thing is not being gentle or scary, but living a reasonable life.

For me, what will come will come, there is no calculation. I live a very simple life. Many people who meet me on the street comment that Thu Huyen is sociable like a normal person, not a famous actress. But I also do not understand why directors often choose me for the role of a shrew.

- Working at the theater, acting in movies and having a small child, do you sometimes feel overwhelmed and unable to balance?

After giving birth to my youngest child, I took care of him myself because I felt sorry for him because he was born prematurely. Now, even though he is a little older, I still take care of everything myself, from shopping to cooking.

In addition to taking care of my family, I also work in the theater, make videos, build my personal brand and act in films. Sometimes, I feel pressured and tired, but luckily I know how to manage and organize my work so everything is fine.

- How has your family, specifically your husband, supported you to focus on your artistic activities?

My job often involves leaving early and coming home late, and I often have to film scenes with male co-stars, but my husband still understands and trusts me. He still takes care of everything at home, so he loves me very much. When I go on a long trip, my husband also arranges time to take me there. When I receive a new project, I always discuss it with him and ask for his opinion.

Many times, I don't need your help, just a word of encouragement or a small action is enough to make me feel like I can handle everything.

- Have you ever controlled your husband, kept him like the character in the movie?

My husband and I live a very simple life, without many principles in marriage. I don't check my husband's phone or pry into him. I just say that while we are together, we must respect and be kind to each other. If we no longer respect each other, I want everything to be clear and straightforward.

- Looking at what is in the present and the pain in the past, do you feel hatred or gratitude for the past?

I don't stay angry with anyone for long and I don't hold grudges about the past. I think everything that happens is due to fate, when fate exists, it stays, when fate ends, it goes, it's no one's fault. That's a lesson and experience for me. Sometimes, I even thank the past for training me to become brave and have a stance like I am now.
