Summary |
Joan Chen is a prodigy - she is both the first Chinese actress to break into Hollywood and China's first female director to direct a Hollywood studio movie. These achievements have not been easy, and for every two steps she takes, it seems she slides back one. Adversity, however, has bred versatility and persistence. Her single greatest strength is her ability to reinvent herself as needed. (From Singapore, in English and Mandarin) (Documentary Series) PG |
