Nguyen Van Binh: The famous baby in the Wild Field, now a billionaire farmer

In the famous movie "Wild Field" directed by People's Artist Nguyen Hong Sen, the most special actor is probably 9-month-old bo.y Nguyen Van Binh. The current life of this one-time chil.d star surprised many viewers.

Appeared in the movie when she was only 9 months old

"Wild Field" produced in 1978, is considered one of the classic films of Vietnamese revolutionary cinema. The film is written by writer Nguyen Quang Sang, written by Trinh Cong Son and directed by Nguyen Hong Sen. The film won many prestigious awards such as the Golden Lotus at the 1980 Vietnam Film Festival, the Gold Medal at the 1981 Moscow International Film Festival...

With the vast and white background of Dong Thap Ten seasons of floating water, in the sky are American planes working day and night, the film crew of "Wasteland" has built the simple and warm life of a Southern guerrilla family. In addition to the acting of artist Lam Toi, Thuy An as a couple, the image of an innocent bo.y playing, crying and laughing in the midst of many nearby dangers left a deep impression on the audience.

The chil.d actor in the movie was born and raised in a small hamlet nearly 200km from the center of Long An province. His real name is Nguyen Van Binh, familiarly called Thuan.

That year, Nguyen Van Binh played the son of Ba Do (the late People's Artist Lam Toi) and Sau Xoa (actor Thuy An). The chance to come to this role is also because Mr. Binh is the nephew of director Nguyen Hong Sen. That year, Nguyen Quang Sang was very confused about choosing a chil.d star to play the role of Ba Do's son and director Hong Sen was sure that he would find a bo.y who was right with the script intent. As a result, right from the time Mr. Binh was only 4 months old, director Hong Sen was determined to turn his nephew into an actor.

However, in the film, there are many dangerous scenes that make viewers also have a heartbeat. "While I was cooking, someone ran up and shouted: "Your chil.d was thrown into the river..." (scene of Thuan falling into the water). Hearing that, I ran over in panic and was comforted by director Hong Sen. When filming the scene where Thuan was cornered in a plastic bag, submerged in the water, director Hong Sen cleverly took me to another place because he was afraid that I would feel sorry for my chil.d," Ms. Thu said.

Mr. Nguyen Van Viet - Mr. Thuan's father, at that time he also participated in playing the role of a guerrilla in the film witnessed it all. "When filming, Thuan's mother was deceived by Mr. Hong Sen and said that I would buy duck eggs to feed. At that time, she was four months pregnant with her second chil.d," Mr. Viet recalled, "After filming, Thuan was sick for a long time due to being soaked in too much water. Fortunately, I am no stranger to Ms. Thuy An and Mr. Lam Toi, just eating, sleeping, crying, laughing... as innocent as when I was with my parents," he said. In the key, there is a scene of the baby being fed by the mother. In fact, in that scene, Ms. Thu was called into a stunt for actor Thuy An.

People who do not have a predestined relationship with cinema, live a meaningful life

Sharing about his first and only role, Thuan said that it was not until he was 15 years old that he could see himself on the screen even though he was a chil.d, his family, neighbors often told him about acting. "Every April 30 holiday, I see a picture of myself at the ag.e of 9 months on a movie rebroadcast by a TV station. I feel proud of my neighbors because I am known by many people. Later, my children and grandchildren can also see me on TV," he shared.

At the ag.e of 9 months, he had his first role and had relatives who were famous directors, but in fact, Nguyen Van Binh did not follow the acting profession. It is known that he actually dreamed of becoming an actor, at the ag.e of 20, he went to Saigon with a scarf, stayed with director Hong Sen to prepare for the entrance exam to film school. But he didn't really have a predestined for this job. In the en.d, he decided to give up his passion and return to his hometown to work in the fields.

Thuan returned to his hometown, then married his wife, gave birth to children and stuck to farming, his dream of becoming a movie actor is only a memory. Thanks to the land given by their parents, the couple worked hard in business. On the land that used to be a battlefield of smoke and fire, the young actor tried every day to reclaim, embank, lick, sweeten, and discharge alum to improve the soil. Life is getting better and better. Currently, the "baby" of the "Wild Field" in the past has 10 hectares of 2-crop rice fields, combine harvesters, plows, and pumps,... the asset value is about 10 billion VND.

The chil.d actor is now the father of two sons. Not only good at production, Thuan is also an enthusiastic militia soldier, always fightin.g in all movements. Thuan and his comrades participated in security patrols; participate in activities to help people work, produce, build bridges and rural roads. So not only did he participate in making the classic movie "Wild Field", but now the bo.y Thuan is also contributing to turning the wild field of Dong Thap Muoi during the war into a fertil.e and bountiful golden rice field... Although he could not fulfill his acting dream, he lived a meaningful and admirable life.
