Tomorrow Never Dies (1997)
1997 Roger Spottiswoode Bond film with Brosnan facing media mogul Carver. Tomorrow Never Dies is Roger Spottiswoode's 1997 British spy film.
Michelle Yeoh trained as a ballet dancer and moved into Hong Kong action cinema, performing her own stunts at a level that included a jump onto a moving train and a fall that broke her back.
Police Story 3 and Yes Madam established her as one of the very few women leading Hong Kong action, and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon brought international recognition.
Tomorrow Never Dies made her a Bond partner who is a genuine equal, which the series had rarely allowed.
She won Best Actress for Everything Everywhere All at Once at sixty, becoming the first Asian woman to win the category, in a role requiring comedy, martial arts and grief in the same scenes.
