My Take
Bai Ling fascinates me as a true original. From Chengdu, with a military background no less, she studied at NYU and threw herself into Hollywood with remarkable nerve. Her presence in The Crow and Nixon, then her lead in Red Corner, carried an intensity that was wholly her own. Recognized as a Great Immigrant in 2007, she has charted a path that refuses to fit any mold. What I admire is her indifference to others' expectations; she leans into her own flamboyant, unapologetic style. In an industry that loves to typecast, Bai Ling has stayed defiantly herself.
