When Michelle Yeoh said that it felt like everything she’s done in the past 40 years of her career prepared her for EEAAO, I felt that. Growing up and watching her films, being inspired by this woman for DECADES- I cried many times but especially when they gave us the supercut of all the Michelle Yeohs. She deserves it ALL 🙌🏻

Claires comment about movies/movie-makers fetishizing traumatic events that happen to women rather than prioritizing the humanity of that person and their experience -- maybe the most powerful statement said. This is a global pandemic and diseased perspective that is rampant in the world. See, understand and connect to women as human beings. They are not "others" to be fetishized in movies or in real life. They are humans.

As someone who has been a Michelle Yeoh fan since seeing her in Heroic Trio and Executioners, it struck me odd that she was correct that mainstream Hollywood and casual movie people only "discover her" when her next movie comes out. This year when people saw Everything , Everywhere All at Once, some of my friends or my friends children were saying " This NEW actress Michelle 'something' was AMAZING in that movie. I hope she does something else." I then have to get on my high horse and give them a history of the legend that she is and has always been.

[@debbietv6972]

YESSS. My dad used to buy VCDs of all her movies (from the Hong Kong films to Hollywood) and we’d watch with my grandpa. 3 generations of Asians sharing a love for Michelle Yeoh. She’s a living legend in Southeast Asia and it’s completely normal. So to hear how people know her just from Crazy Rich Asians and EEAAO I’m genuinely surprised before I realize not everyone had my childhood with Dato Michelle Yeoh being literally in everything everywhere all at once 🥲✨

I'll be honest, i first saw her in tomorrow never dies as a kid, but she really has done so much great work

[@ginnylin]

I have seen a lot of people (not super young people) saying they only discovered her recently which I find quite amazing because in my mind Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was very popular, even in a "mainstream" way back in the day. She has also been fairly consistently in her output since then? But I guess since Crouching Tiger, her works have not achieved as much mainstream success besides some moderate success with Memoirs of a Geisha.

[@sooyadaisies]

Michelle Yeoh, not only she's drop dead gorgeous, elegant, talented, funny and the list of adjectives goes on.... she catches everyone's attention with her aura, and of course by just being the legend she is, but especially with her brilliant way with words. She speaks her thoughts with such outright confidence and gracefulness, like everything else she does, and I just can't help but be totally and completely enchanted by her.

[@purplecookie4798]

There is still a very marked difference in the questions that are asked at the actress roundtables versus the questions asked at the actors roundtables. I get that there are some social issues that are important for actresses in the public eye to talk about but I find it strange that only the women have to have these types of conversations where as the men get to wax lyrical about their art, character psychology, method , experiences etc. I would like to hear more about these extraordinary actreses artistic processes!

[@phoebeel]

Tbh I find these topics way more interesting. You can watch other interviews where they talk about their method like the one where two actresses/actors talk to each other about their work. Instead, I wish the men would be forced to talk more about social issues. I find it more that the men are hiding behind the excuse that it's all just about the work. The work is easy if you're a man. Women need to talk about social issues because they are hindered and hurt by those issues. Men NEED to talk about those issues so that the rest of the world listens up. Men get paid more, men have more power. Unless they start talking about that fact, they are keeping the system alive

[@rebeccanascimento8234]

@@suzannefarrington4143 She was cancelled for being incredibly rude and difficult to work with on set. And in 2013 I had an encounter with her as well. She came into the Market Street Oyster Bar in Salt Lake City, Utah and she ended up getting into an argument with the owner and the GM because they wouldn't allow her to vape in the restaurant. She expected to get different treatment, even if it was a literally law being broken, than regular people just because of her being a celebrity. So I tend to believe people when they say was difficult to work with and was often rude to people for absolutely no reason. Sometimes actors can be difficult to work with but if they're talented enough and release great movies and shows, then people seem to put up with it. Katherine is obviously not talented enough for people to put up with her attitude and the way she talks down to people, or clearly she'd still be here.

[@dianetran6503]

I was confused by that too. I ended up interpreting it as "we all love to run, but they make us wear medals of different colors" (gold, silver, bronze) to indicate who is the "best." They were talking about the silliness of awards at that part of the interview. And I think Michelle was trying to say how awards are given to indicate the "best" movie/performance/etc when really it shouldn't matter because everyone involved just loves making movies.

I still think that Cate Blanchett's performance in TÁR is the best this year and among the best of the decade. However, Michelle Yeoh's performance is really ONCE IN A LIFETIME. The race between Cate Blanchett and Michelle Yeoh to Oscar Best Actress will be among the toughest and greatest in the history of this award. If the Oscar does not honor both two actresses (like it did once in 1968 with Katharine Hepburn and Barbara Streisand), then I wish Oscar will give the golden statute to Michelle Yeoh, marking the first time an Asian actor/actress winning Best Actor/Actress title. We have white, black winners and now we have a yellow winner of this top category.

@@zurzakne-etra7069 ??? Anya is a phenomenal actress lol. Sometimes she picks roles/projects that maybe aren’t best suited for her or that are not well written, but those are the risks that any great actor has to take. It doesn’t make her a bad actor.

I love everything about this roundtable. Excellent setting.

[@ricklisle5441]

I always love watching these formats as I feel they are a lot more genuine then general interviews

[@peytonrutledge4114]

agree! so often, though, the interviewer is not as skilled or knowledgeable as this one. I've heard many ridiculous, shallow questions in other round tables. Rebecca Keegan does a great job imo.

[@LtheGoddess7]

I am here for Danielle Deadwyler! LOVE listening to her talk. So brilliant. So eloquent. Such a gift to us all. Looking forward to watching her star continue to rise + shine.

[@lorriannclavin954]

I've been watching Michelle Yeoh movies since Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2003 to the present. I love that she has always played multifaceted empowered roles. Its about time that she's finally getting the Hollywood recognition. She has a strong work ethic and high quality professional work in every role she does. I admire her perseverance, tenacity, patience and humbleness. It's refreshing to see an actress that still remembers the importance of roots regardless of how successful you are. Within the Asian and Pacific Islanders communities, she is highly respected and adored. She is iconic and beautiful on the inside and outside.

I love Jamie Lee Curtis with all my heart and the way they all smiled when Michelle Yeoh mentioned her name just shows how wonderful that person is. I love them all!

@@deerheart87I’m with you on this, I never liked her. Hate peaked when she won the Oscar instead of Stephanie Hsu. I’m still bitter about that 😂

[@shri081]

Michelle Yeoh and Jamie Lee Curtis getting all the limelight for Everything,Everywhere All at Once just makes my soul so happy….and I’ve had a crush on Claire Foy like forever….really looking forward to watching Women Talking now…loved this episode….

[@engledelaffety4380]

[@johanna2690]

Yep, I'm 28 and always admired her.

[@brandstixs7836]

It’s so wonderful seeing these powerful women together talking about their work and craft… I could listen to them for hours!

[@wheeinsheight]

powerful women and a nonbinary person*

[@davidnelson5381]

I so enjoy quality conversations where every sentence IS NOT ended as though it were a question. Lots of wisdom here.

[@albustran4855]

Academy should recognize Michelle Yeoh's talent and at least give her a well deserved nomination this year.

[@tragicrhythm]

Love this panel. Really enjoyed hearing how the industry has changed (somewhat) for the better.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

I’m here for the lineup! Absolutely fabulous 👏🏽 P.S. I’m missing Cate Blanchett Chaos though.

[@MsTriangle]

She is going to win this year.

[@rachelraspberrymusic3711]

I really enjoyed this one. 53 enjoyable minutes of watching something on KZbin never went by so quick! So much juice, and depth, and honesty. I may even come back for more of this one at some point!

[@AmbientWalking]

How wonderful to hear all these amazing actors speak about their craft and their lives! Thank you for this!

[@tikari3987]

Michelle Yeoh is the GOAT, hands down one of the greatest actresses of all time, not only as an action star.

[@Clouden3]

THANK YOU EMMA CORRIN FOR MENTIONING NEVER RARELY SOMETIMES ALWAYS. SUCH A FANTASTIC FILM!

[@jannahlyon]

Amazingly intelligent and eloquent actors. Thoroughly enjoyed this round table. Thank you for sharing this.

[@mariah6782]

this was such a beautiful video all the discussions were great

[@elisabethmossclips]

Enjoyed every second of this! Acting so often seen as such a superficial job and people only see the result and the red carpets, there's so much depth to that art and I love how these women voice all of what it takes to do it with such passion

[@kind.geese99]

i love listening to michelle yeoh speak. shes had such an interesting and long career i love hearing her insights. also really happy to see danielle here!

ME TOO. Saw that clip on instagram and immediately ran to see this entire video, then googled him and was like "OH, THERE IT IS"

[@lauraeeeee]

I fell in love with Michelle when I watched Memoirs of a Geisha in 2005. I am so thrilled she is being acknowledged for her immense talent

[@italok6577]

That's the one movie that introduced me to this amazing actress and wonderful person🥰

[@margiedaniel894]

Me too. Her portrayal of Mamiha was restrained yet powerful. I am a proud Malaysian by the way 😊. I first took notice of her when she won the Miss Malaysia pageant back in the day.

[@thisismyinferno]

Michelle Yeoh is just Iconic! Loved her since I was a kid.

[@davidadams2395]

I can usually just listen to these roundtables and do other tasks, but this one had me entranced from the beginning. I hung on every word.

[@qwq_elz]

All these powerful women sat around talking about things so elegantly makes me so happy

[@KJBigBelter]

Michelle! Thanks for the back story on SUNSHINE , love you in that film!!!

That was an hour well spent, listening to smart talented women talking about the difficulties behind the glamour. Thank you!

[@jakewatkins5202]

i loved this, so insightful

[@writerchick94]

Strangely this conversation reminded me so much of academia. Keeping information from actors is very reminiscent of keeping info from grad students and I'm sure faculty when you compare them to the admin level. This idea that because film making is creative you don't need to be professional is SO prevalent in academia as well and especially in my field. That you should sacrifice your whole life for this cause and if you set limits you're being difficult and the fear of setting a limit with your supervisor and then things are weird the next day and potentially your whole career implodes because in academia you're whole value is also wrapped up in what people think of you as a person. So many parallels.

[@LollieVox]

I love how Michelle suggested a multi cultural mission as opposed to Caucasian only mission! This is what woman in their power can do! I’m inspired

[@theogoldberg8919]

Michelle Yeoh for Best actress absolutely. She's been elegance incarnated ever since appearing in Hidden 🐉 crouching tigers

[@maeranni]

Here for Michelle Yeoh. Classy, elegant and hopefully winning everything.

Great conversation

[@siddharthnaagar7028]

Honestly seeing Michelle Yeoh finally having her moment in hollywood is heart-rending

[@Journeyjunckies]

Greatness in one room. 😍😍😍😍😍 I love the idea of sharing real practical insights on what's actually happening with the different characters everyone has played so far. The experiences and opportunities they carry along also add a great deal to. It's not easy especially for the women but to see such great things happening for young beautiful women like you is amazing. Much much love ❤❤❤
