    She was 50 in this interview. Jesus Christ. Always felt like she was underrated, at least in Western cinema.

    Yes Michelle Yeoh is highly underrated. In fact she´s a very intelligent woman who always behaves with great dignity, elegance and class, and actually has a lot of personality and charisma. I don´t think we find many actors who has her qualities. She´s so natural, easygoing and yet very accomplished. She´s a mystery allthough she´s just being herself. But unfortunately we don´t see that too much here in the Western World and probably mostly remember her for the tempo-filled Hong Kong-actionmovies, which don´t show her personal qualities to the fullest except maybe from Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon or My Life as a Geisha and of course her role as Aung San Suu Kyi. Wish we could get to know her better... :)

      Glad that you guys are observant. But in different languages the same movie has many titles that differs from the original title. Luckily we all know what is refered to.

      Antifeminist Antimisandry My 88 y/o father and I agree with you, even though we are American Caucasians. My Dad says Western American culture has lost what is necessary for women to become real ladies. Michelle Yeoh is as classy, elegant, beautiful, intelligent, talented, as any woman on earth. Thanks for your reply.

      +Antifeminist Antimisandry
      Not really, every culture has its good and bad side. I don't think Asian women are classier than any other women, some individuals can be classier than others, but don't generalise. Americans aren't only Caucasian, they are a melting pot. Americans are more rude in general as a culture than Europeans and Asians cultures. By Americans I mean White, Black and Asian.

    Goddess. I don't know what it is about Michelle that makes her seem almost queen-like. There's loads of beautiful women on this planet. But only a handful that can compete with Michelle. She's so out of my league, out of anyone's league... I wish her a long, healthy and joyful life. Because we need more people like her on this planet. Beauty, brains, charisma, wit... She's got it all.

      Hong Kong accent and Malaysian accent isn't that much different. Chinese people from both places predominantly speak Cantonese rather than Mandarin, thus the accent is very much the same. Malaysian accent just has a little Bahasa Melayu in it.

Horrifying but 100% true, people. WAKE UP! At marker 7:10 look at the longer ring finger than the pointer finger. That's what males have. Women have a longer pointer finger than ring finger or equal length, men have a longer ring finger than pointer finger or equal length. This is a male hand, folks! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!

    Good to hear that Michelle Yeoh and Aung San Suu Kyi think violence begets violence. Thus fighting Nazi Germany was a mistake, as is having police and soldiers. Also good to hear that Aung San Suu Kyi opposes violence in defence of Rohingya Muslims. I dare say she also opposes violence in defence of Jews. That said, I notice that she has armed guards to protect her. What exactly is her game? Achieving political power without being killing while stepping over the bodies of said Muslims and anybody else who gets is her way? I think we can all agree that such people should be deprived of armed protection and any other kind of protection that might involve violence or the threat of violence.
