Virak Dara is not the only Khmer actress beautiful star, there's other actress beautiful and talent as well. Because of Preah Neng Tekor production, that's why she was so famouse when her first film released 'Saupasseth'. She is beautiful and she is the wife of the movie director 'Ly Bun Yim'.
Virak Dara along with Dy Saveth is the only two mainstream actors to have survived because they fled to France before the Fall of Phnom Penh. Though at the height of the era from 1967 until 1975 it was popular consensus that she came in a distant fourth lagging behind Vichara Dany, Som Vansodany and Dy Saveth. The fact that she was an exclusive actress for Runteas Pich (as she was the wife of the director) therefore contributed to her limited exposure. Yet her three surviving movies are superb.
You guys are all WRONG! She is not mix chinese or khmer! This will actually disappoint many khmer because we hold a strong grudge on Vietnam but Vireak Dara is actually half khmer and half vietnamese! My dad knows her and she lives in France!
I think what makes her so beautiful is how natural she is. Back in the days they don't use much makeup. She also acts very natural in her movies. She is a real beauty!
@USAdude30 She's from the 60's & 70's where this kind of look was in. The more recent Cambodian stars look much more beautiful in my opinion but that's just a matter of preference and I don't have a lot of memories from the 70's.
I think this is the part of the movie call Potha Sain & Neang Kong Reiy...in that letter her mother telling her To kill him right a way, in the day light or in the darkness night. But while on his way he was resting under the tree. His master changing the word in the letter saying " u must marry him right way or capture him for a husband" oh please u guy or Pkv don't correct my english.))))
Do you know that Virak Dara has a very cute grand daughter named Victoria? They're inseparable. By the way, Virak Dara is not mixed with French! She's 100% asian and the nicest person you can ever meet.
I am preserving all original songs sung by my uncle Sin Sissamouth and am asking all Cambodian to please contact me if you have any originals (vinils or cassettes) produced before 1979. My e-mail address is warblade_1998@yahoo.com. Many thanks!
I am so happy to see some clips of my auntie's movies. I have not seen the full length versions ever since I was a kid. Maybe ex uncle can bring them back out and release them to the Cambodian community.
Yes ,indeed,She was and STILL is the MOST beautiful Khmer Actress.In Puthisen neang kong rey,she is the youngest daughter of "Yak Srey",so watch out she gonna EAT you guys alive. Ha..Ha..Ha..
I'm the new generation but I really love all of oldies so much.I wish they are all still in Khmer heart 4evr.They are awsome even songs or movies.I used to be told by my parente about them.Thanks for posting all of these.
She happens to be married to the villain in the movie. Actually, the main character played by Gong Somoeun and the guy who played the villian are brothers in real life, which makes Virak Dara Gong Somoeun's sister in law.
When I was abut six, at Watt Angkor, Kampong Cham, I had a huge crash on Virak Dara, whom I saw in person for the first time. Kong Som Oeurn and her rehearsed the exact scene in the footage (1:33 – 2:35). Ly Bun Yim-Director asked me to bring water. I stood there motionless gazing at her eyes. She was heavenly beautiful woman I had eve seen. My heart was broken into million pieces when Kong Som Oeurn asked me to bring him that water instead. She rocked my six years old brain to say the least.
she's on FB.

The clips from Kang Rey certainly display how grand the movie was. I just wished they released it for people living in the States to watch.
