Ngoc Trinh attracted attention when she returned to the big screen with her role in the movie "Sister-in-law".
* Note: The article reveals part of the movie's content.
"Sister-in-law" is currently the leading work at the Vietnamese box office, with a revenue of 34 billion VND after 4 days of release, according to data from independent box office statistics unit Box Office Vietnam.
The film is set at a death anniversary in the countryside, where five women from different generations and backgrounds gather at the family's ancestral house.
Ngoc Trinh plays Ut Nhu, whose husband comes from a wealthy family but gambles, is in debt and always leaves his wife shouldering billions of dong in debt.
Ngoc Trinh's role is an impulsive, emotional, and hot-tempered woman. Although protected by her older sisters, she is shallow-minded and only sees her sister-in-law Hai Nhi (Viet Huong) as an "ATM" to help her pay off her debts.
Born a country girl, and married because she got pregnant before marriage, Nhu felt guilty for causing her family to lose face. Faced with the questioning and reproaches of her older sisters, Nhu could only get angry and resentful because she could not refute.
Ngoc Trinh has many dialogue scenes with her 4 sisters, including heavy scenes with Viet Huong, such as the scene where she is advised to divorce her husband, demanded to sell the ancestral house to divide the money...
Returning to the big screen after nearly 2 years, Ngoc Trinh has a good performance, natural acting. However, some scenes where the character Nhu explodes in anger are not well controlled, and her expressions are still awkward.
On forums, audiences commented that Ngoc Trinh is less experienced than veteran actors such as Viet Huong, Hong Dao, Dinh Y Nhung, Le Khanh but completed the role.
In "Sister-in-law", Ngoc Trinh only wears one outfit. The off-shoulder shirt and tight pants show the difference in her style and aesthetic taste compared to her sisters.
The role of Ut Nhu is different from the series of characters with a flashy, luxurious life that Ngoc Trinh has played in "Chi chi em em 2", "Vong eo 56"...
Sharing at the media meeting, Ngoc Trinh said that after the recent events, this time she hopes to receive the audience's sympathy and support.
Previously, in October 2023, Ngoc Trinh was temporarily detained by Ho Chi Minh City Police for 3 months for disturbing public order after posting a video of her performing a large-displacement motorbike on social media.
In early February 2024, the Ho Chi Minh City People's Court sentenced her to one year in prison, but suspended the sentence for disturbing public order. The incident caused a stir in public opinion and damaged Ngoc Trinh's reputation.
Through the events, Ngoc Trinh said she was very nervous and scared when accepting to participate in this project.
As soon as it was released, the film took the top spot at the box office. Director Khuong Ngoc's work conveys a profound message about family affection.
The female characters in the movie "Sister-in-law" are women who still maintain their traditions and family traditions but are placed in modern life with countless pressures from making a living to keeping each small family intact, even living fully with love, letting go of the troubles in their lives...
