Michelle Yeoh on Her Journey from Action Hero to Oscar Nominee | Women Changing the World | PEOPLE

[@corazonazultw]

She was already a super star in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia in the 80's and 90's. Then she came to USA to start from scratch in this male dominated profession. Look what she accomplished today. What a resilient and strong woman!

[@amyjuanli]

totally agree. I thought she was only focusing on Kongfu movies. But it turns out she is an amazing actress.

[@truth8307]

No, she flopped during the 80s or 90s in Chinese movies and that's why she has never win a single acting award in Hong Kong or Taiwan. At that time, the action heroine in Hong Kong is Brigitte Lin Qing Xia. And there are other actresses like Anita Mui, Maggie Cheung, Cherrie Chung, Dodo Cheng etc who are more popular than her. Even in Crouching Tiger, she was overshadowed by a newcomer Zhang Ziyi.

[@jaypeerogel]

As much as I love Cate Blanchett, Michelle’s perfomance in EEAAO is certainly the last year’s best!

[@kevinilango7896]

This is SO true. Sometimes I feel with the Oscars end up awarding the film's subject matter rather than the aspect of the film itself. Like when The King's Speech won over The Social Network when the latter was obviously a much better film. Blanchett was sublime in Tár because that's what the story called for, in contrast she was unhinged and over-the-top in Blue Jasmine because that's what *that* story called for. EEAAO demanded Yeoh to balance the dramatic with the comic, for a role which was purposely meant to be life affirming, no matter what kind of life you end up living. It's a very different kind of story itself because it's a character studying herself in all the different directions her life could have gone. God I hope the academy folks vote with their hearts and brains and not out of some long-overdue-sentiment stuff.

[@malpete]

Same sentiment 😁

[@user-CatherineDodd]

Legendary actress Linda Hunt once said, “There was an Indonesian phrase in the film (A Life Of Living Dangerously), which translates into English as “Water From The Moon.”, and it means that which is an attainable….the impossible,…. that which one can never have or know”. Michelle Yeoh is the water from the moon….40 years of impeccable contributions to the industry and in the world of cinema. Her sole performance in this cleverly brilliant and ingenious film by the Daniels, “Everything Everywhere All at Once”, is a masterpiece of sincere emotion. She gives a landmark performance. It is both death-defying and emotionally powerful-an increasingly rare combination. I’d compare her to a bottle of fine wine, she’s constantly evolving and gaining complexity….. I hope the academy voters would give this incomparable actress this once in a lifetime opportunity to be the first asian actress to win the top honour.

She has been an inspiration to me long before she came to Hollywood. I remember watching her kicking ass in Hong Kong action movies in the 80's and 90's as a child and always thought she was super cool. Even then, she was breaking barriers, as a female who could fight and be a badass in a male dominated movie genre. Then she went to Hollywood and broke more barriers as the first Asian bond girl. She was also one of the few Asian actresses who were given roles with dialogues in Hollywood, which to me was amazing, because I remember how frustrated I was everytime I saw an Asian in a movie with one sentence or no dialogue at all, which just enforced the stereotype that none of us could speak proper English.
