One of the factors that received much attention after the premiere was musician Nguyen Van Chung in his film debut. Singer Tung Duong and People's Artist Lan Huong both praised musician Nguyen Van Chung's first foray into film.

At the premiere, musician Nguyen Van Chung also shared his reasons for participating in "The Haunted Shell ." The musician affirmed that he wanted to gain experience and have more material for his compositions.

"I came to this film because I wanted to experience and understand what the life of an actor is like, so that I could gain more inspiration and material that might later be suitable for my songs," shared musician Nguyen Van Chung.

He also thanked director Dinh Tuan Vu for giving him a valuable experience, the opportunity to act in a feature film and appear on the big screen. "This is something I've achieved, but Tung Duong hasn't," musician Nguyen Van Chung jokingly said.

Composer Nguyen Van Chung talks about his reasons for participating in feature films.

Regarding musician Nguyen Van Chung's role, director Dinh Tuan Vu revealed that the musician's scenes were not cut from the film. "Before choosing musician Nguyen Van Chung, I was very worried because he hadn't acted before. But somehow, when I met him, talked to him, and watched him audition in a few scenes with his co-stars Quoc Truong, Anh Pham, etc., his demeanor and performance almost perfectly matched my vision of the character Mr. Manh. Chung acted in many charming scenes and surprised me," director Dinh Tuan Vu said.

Alongside Nguyen Van Chung, Miss Vietnam Tieu Vy continues to receive much praise for her progress in acting. Having faced considerable skepticism when venturing into film, the beauty queen is considered to have made significant progress in portraying character psychology and controlling emotions on screen.

Secrets hidden beneath the facade of a perfect marriage.

People's Artist Lan Hương praised the cast of "Borrowed Shell" for their consistency and seamless coordination. However, the actress said she was still hoping for a strong breakthrough, especially in Quốc Trường's performance.

The actor possesses a striking screen presence, delivers many emotionally expressive moments, and clearly portrays the character's complex psychology, but he still lacks a defining element that would truly make the role stand out. "Perhaps I'm a little too picky," the actress shared.

People's Artist Lan Hương praised director Đinh Tuấn Vũ, noting the clear maturity in his storytelling. She noted that despite the film containing many dramatic moments and sharp plot twists, the director still chose a relaxed and calm narrative pace.

People's Artist Lan Hương is looking forward to a more explosive performance from actor Quốc Trường.

The film "Hermit Crabs" explores the secrets and traumas hidden beneath the facade of a seemingly perfect marriage. It revolves around the complex relationships between An (Yen Dan), Quan (Quoc Truong), Ngoc (Tieu Vy), and Quynh (Anh Pham) in a whirlwind of conflicting love affairs.

Despite choosing a familiar theme, the work attracted attention for its more edgy approach, dissecting the hidden aspects behind the glitz and glamour of showbiz and seemingly strong relationships.

Through the metaphorical image of the hermit crab, the film vividly portrays the human ego, as each character wears a shell to conceal their inner wounds and desires.

What audiences discussed most after screenings wasn't the plot twists, but the way the film constructed its multi-layered characters. No one is completely perfect or absolutely trustworthy; each person carries flaws and must face the consequences of their choices. It's this relatable realism and the feeling that everyone has reasons to be understood that makes the story so relatable to viewers.

Instead of offering a clear conclusion, The Hermit Crab leaves it up to the audience to decide their own perspective on each character. This deliberate ambiguity is also what made the film so controversial after its release.
