10. Summary of thesis results:
From the research, we found that the study of the art of Cai Luong and Don Ca Tai Tu in Vietnamese cinema has only stopped at the form of articles and there has not been a thesis or dissertation that clearly researches this issue. Therefore, we find that this is also a fairly new topic and has not really attracted many people's attention. Therefore, we hope that through the research, it will be shown that bringing Cai Luong and Don Ca Tai Tu into cinema in particular and traditional art forms into cinema in general is a new direction in the film industry. At the same time, this is also a way to bring these arts closer to the audience. The thesis is divided into 3 chapters:
In chapter 1, the author studies the theories of adaptation and intertextuality. From the relationship between the art of cải lương and cinema, the author distinguishes the concepts of adaptation and conversion in order to unify the concepts. The work also cites typical research works of researchers on the phenomenon of adaptation and conversion in the art of cải lương into cinema. Especially the cinematographic works bearing the mark of cải lương, including 3 films: Ngon
The author hopes that through this research, it will help provide some theoretical basis for upcoming research projects on the art of reformed opera in cinema.
In chapter 2, we focused on analyzing the art of reformed opera and solo singing in modern Vietnamese cinema from the content aspect of social context, social concepts and reflection of people's spiritual life through 3 films.
In chapter 3, we focused on studying the music, cinematographic techniques and costumes of the art of cải lương in cinema. Through the study, we saw that in terms of the form of expression, cải lương art and traditional singing are expressed in music. In addition, for television, when working with works of cải lương art or traditional singing, attention is paid to the techniques of images, lighting and sound. As for the time, the preparation work is more thorough because many factors are needed to create a film such as finding the setting, props, actors, and appropriate scenes. In particular, the selection of suitable costumes is also very important to the directors, especially for the costumes in the movie Song Long because there are scenes using the stage of Cai Luong, so the costumes need to be clearly shown in the 80s. The music in the movie must also choose songs with the sound of Don Ca Tai Tu and Cai Luong, which is a decisive part of the success as well as helping the audience return to the space of Cai Luong and Don Ca Tai Tu.
Exploiting the materials of Cai Luong and Don Ca Tai Tu in the field of cinema and television can be said to be a right direction, not only contributing to the preservation and development of a national heritage art form, but also a way to spread the intangible cultural heritage recognized by UNESCO. The success of Song Lang, Ngon Co Gio Gioc, Dat Phuong Nam is the smooth and effective combination between stage art and cinema, between the national character in the legendary material and the modernity in building character images. The three films are a colorful overall picture from art to content. Song Lang, Ngon Co Gio Gioc, Dat Phuong Nam are films that make viewers admire the beauty of the culture of the West and Saigon, of cinema, of folk music. Finally, Song Lang deserves to be one of the typical films of Vietnamese cinema in the 21st century.
For filmmakers, not only love and responsibility, but also the art of Cai Luong and Don Ca Tai Tu are the soul of Vietnamese culture, so that Vietnamese films have their own identity that is not mixed with other cultures in the process of general integration.
11. Practical applicability: The research of the thesis can be used as reference material for editors, film directors, and film researchers.

From the research, we found that the study of the art of cai luong and don ca tai tu in Vietnamese cinema only stopped in the form of articles without a clear research thesis or thesis on this issue. Therefore, we realize that this is also a fairly new topic and has not been really interested by many people. Therefore, we hope that through the research, it will show that the introduction of cai luong and don ca tai tu in cinema in particular and traditional art forms in cinema in general is a direction. new to the film industry.

In chapter 3 we have focused our research on music, cinematic effects and costumes of the reformed art into cinema. Through the study, we found that in terms of form of expression, the art of cai luong and the solo song of tai tu are expressed in music. In addition, for television when working with adapted works of art such as Cai luong or Dan ca tai tu, attention should be paid to visual, light and sound effects. As for the time part, the preparation work is more thorough because it takes a lot of factors to create a movie such as finding the right setting, props, actors, and scenes. In particular, the selection of suitable costumes is also very important to the directors, especially for the costumes in the movie Song Long because there are scenes using the Cai Luong stage, so the costumes need to be decorated. clearly shown in the 80s. Music in the cinema must also choose songs with the influence of Don Ca Tai Tu and Cai Luong, which is a decisive part of the success as well as helping the audience return to the space of Cai Luong and Don Ca Tai Tu.

The success of Song Lang, The Grass of the Wind, and the Southern Land is a smooth and effective combination of theater and cinema art, etched in legendary material and modernity in image construction. character statue. The three films are a colorful overall picture from art to content.

Finally, Song Lang deserves to be one of the typical films for Vietnamese cinema in the 21st century.
For filmmakers, not only love and responsibility, but the Art of Cai Luong and Don ca tai tu are also the soul of Vietnamese culture, so that Vietnamese films bring their own identity not to be confused with other cultures in the past. general integration.
