Tran Quang: "Photo Emperor" Saigon screen before 1975, rumors of love with a series of famous beauties

Tran Quang was one of the most famous actors in the Southern film industry before 1975. With his tall physique, romantic, cinematic appearance, and generous voice, the actor left many impressions in the hearts of the audience.

Artist Tran Quang was born in 1942 in Laos, but is a native of the North. His grandfather was a Confucian, and his father was a diplomat, so he often worked abroad. After working in Laos for a few years, his father moved again to Thailand. During that time, young Tran Quang only spoke English and Thai, afraid that he could not speak Vietnamese, so his parents sent Tran Quang to live with his uncle in Saigon.

Returning to Vietnam, Tran Quang was born again in 1944 to re-enter grade 4, learning French besides Vietnamese, but those are both new languages, so he spoke very awkwardly, unlike his classmates. He decided to drop out of school and asked his uncle to hire a teacher to teach at home.

In 1963, Tran Quang graduated valedictorian by playing two classic characters of the stage, Hamlet and Genghis Khan, he was called Dai Han by his classmates instead of Tran Quang.

Originally a playwright, she used to be the king of the Saigon National Theater School, but when Tran Quang transferred to receive the film, she immediately became a big name in the Southern cinema industry.

Film actor Tran Quan is a familiar name in the Saigon film industry before 1975. Possessing a handsome and romantic appearance, his tall physique is considered a "Clark Gabl" of Vietnam.

In the 1960s - 1970s, Tran Quang was famous for his roles as a Gypsy, an actor with high form and acting skills in famous films such as: Enemies on the back of wild horses, Dragon Tiger, Fighting, Lullaby, Like a Raindrop, etc. These are movies that storm the cinemas with real characters such as Dai Ca Thay, James Dean, but also because there are few real-life characters that Tran Quang has had contact with, besides real life, and guitar Hoang. .

Before 1975, he won the best actor award many times. From 1971-1973, he was favored by the press as the emperor. In his artistic career, Tran Quang incarnated in more than 20 main roles. Most of it is the image of a man who is bare-bones and romantic.

After 1975, audiences in both South and North saw Tran Quang continue to shine through films such as: Co Nhip, Rach Chi Bridge, Last Sin, Disabled Beast... Tran Quang's name was associated with screen beauties at that time such as: Tham Thuy Hang, Phuong Thanh, Kieu Chinh, Thanh Lan, Bach Tuyet...

With a solid body, angular face, flowing hair, amorous, but very masculine eyes, Tran Quang has sketched a portrait of a young but very rebellious Hoang guitar in the status of a gypsy elder. With strong martial arts skills, in this movie, he plays all the action stunts. Thanks to that, his role is extremely lively and attractive.

Referring to him, people are reminded of the role of Hoang Guitar in "Vengeance on a Wild Horse", a role that helped him receive the second Best and Most Popular Actor award in 1973 organized by the Black and White Daily.

Tran Quang's reputation became more and more resounding, he began to be noticed by the Asian film world and invited to cooperate with him. Those are two action movies in cooperation with Hong Kong and Thailand, where Tran Quang was invited to play the main roles of Long Ho Sa Dou and Hai Vu 709.

It was also the time that Tran Quang became the Photo Emperor of the Saigon art village, a shining name in the Southern cinema village with a salary of up to 3.3 million VND. He drove the most expensive cars and lived in luxury villas in Saigon, but with that came a broken marriage and countless love stories fabricated by the Saigon press.

While co-starring with Thanh Nga in the movie The Vengeance on the Back of a Wild Horse, Tran Quang often went to Thanh Nga's house, so he met and fell in love with the 9th sister of the "stage queen". They had a daughter together, but happiness did not last long, after that Tran Quang continued to experience some other love affairs, but he was very secretive, the press could not exploit his private life, so he turned to write about his dense love rumors.

After 1975, Tran Quang appeared in many major cinematic works. The role in the movie The Disabled Beast (directed by Ho Quang Minh) is one of his impressive incarnations. With the movie The Vengeance of Five Months (directed by Le Mong Hoang) Tran Quang made a special impression in both the role of the main actor and the script writer. The film was successful both commercially and artistically.

In 1992, Tran Quang moved to the US to settle down with many artistic dreams and ambitions. He studied directing at the Hollywood Film Institute. Because of many objective and subjective challenges, he could not implement the film projects that he cherished. In return, he was still ecstatic on the stage of dialogue, a specialty in which he was trained since he was still studying at the Saigon National School of Music.

Around the end of 2019, Tran Quang said goodbye to the theater stage. It was the last performance in Because It's You in California. He plays a military medical officer who falls into a love triangle full of contradictions. Despite his age, with his inner acting experience and warm voice, Tran Quang made the audience ask him to continue, do not rush to say goodbye to the stage.

If on the film Tran Quang is the elegant, peachy lover of famous female stars such as Thanh Nga, Kieu Chinh, Tham Thuy Hang, and Bach Tuyet, in real life, he still retains that romantic style.

Growing up in a Confucian family, absorbing Western civilization, Tran Quang was thoroughly educated. He speaks both English and French well. He read a lot of books, so during the conversation, he was able to deeply analyze many topics in many different fields.

Currently, Tran Quang is in Vietnam more than in the US. He lived a quiet and peaceful life with his life partner. His secret to a happy life is to always keep a peaceful mind and body. He did not let anger, jealousy, and selfishness plague his mind. He forgot the bad, towards the beautiful and always smiled youthfully at the people around him.
