Her beauty is timeless and she still is one of the most bad-ass Hong Kong cinema action stars around. I just wish she would come out of retirement....sigh...
She doesn't look a day over 35!!! just think, she was in "Enter The Dragon" with Bruce Lee nearly 40 years ago! She looks better than girls HALF her age.
Wow! The most stunning 59 year old I've ever seen. She was born 20 September 1950! Wow!!! A few of Angela's greatest films are: Hapkido (1972), When Taekwondo Strikes (1973), Enter the Dragon (1973), Stoner (1974), Broken Oath (1977)!
No, her English is extremely limited. When I asked a question in English during the Q&A period, the Japanese host had to translate it into Chinese. I found this rather surprising as I understand that she lives in New York City where she runs/owns a Chinese restaurant.
@Bunshinsaba Not really that surprising, if you ask me. New York does have a large community. And she owns several Chinese restaurants, so I doubt she is involved in the day to day running.
Hey msinthrop I was just wondering, how do you know her location in America and what she is doing? Did you actually see her in person? This is not meant to be sarcastic, I am just asking, thanks.
Whitedragonawa, I'm guessing she probably didn't make a lot of money. For example, according to IMDb, Angela got a single payment of $100 for her role in Enter The Dragon. I bet that scene took most of a day to shoot, if not more than one day.
wow this woman still is looking damn good. It has been over 30 years since she first play in Enter the Dragon and she was hot then. All of these years later she has kept her self looking good. That's the power of Martial Arts for you. Ms. Angela Mao you still got it going on.
What event was this? They must of had a film screening of some type. Im glad to see she is well. I just picked up quit a few of here films at my favorite Hong Kong film store when I visit L.A. They are all incredible Re-mastered prints too.
I always felt Angela was totally under-rated. She was like the female Bruce Lee and the first woman to really kick ass in hong-kong cinema. She had the looks, the skills, the acting talent. I STILL have a crush on her! ^_^
It was cool. I just wish we could have had an autograph session afterwards, but they whisked her away (see Leaves By Taxi). Still, I got to ask her a question, which was "What was the hardest a part about doing the fight scenes?" Alas, she answered in Mandarin and the translator translated into Japanese only. So we'll never know.
Awesome...How many people attended?? Which of her movies did you get to watch at the festival? Is there tape of her answering your question? Just to be in her presence would be dream come true.
Not many people attended - maybe 40 - 50 in a theater that held about 100. The movie shown was Broken Oath. Alas, I didn't record my own question... stupid, eh? It was the second day of Tokyo appearances. She did another but I didn't go to that because of work. If you live in the States, she runs a restaurant in NY Chinatown. Don't know which though. Curiously.. I wasn't as "in awe of the experience" as I thought I would have been. I don't know why. It was just okay.
Thanks...If ever I get the chance to visit NY or search out her restaurant. I would probably fumble over my words if I ever got the chance to ask her a question...Did they do anything to advertise or promote her appearance? With that many people they should of had some short of meet and greet after the movie with food and drink being served.
Well... if you meet her she doesn't speak or really understand English which I thought was shocking, as she lives in the USA. They did advertise the event and there were even small posters. I have one and have to get around to putting it on EBay. In my place in Toronto, I have quite a lot of authentic Hong Kong Angela stuff - 70s posters and lobbycards.
I was nuts for her as a kid. I think she's the reason I love Asian women!! Though I wouldn't tell my Japanese wife that.
Wow I didn't know she resides in the US..Always thought Angela lived in Beijing...If kept simple I wouldn't have a problem asking or understanting her in mandarin. Let me know when you plan on putting up some of the HK Angela stuff on ebay. I still I'm looking for a photo of hers... I hope to meet her someday along with Grace chang and Lily Ho.
This is so sad. Only 40 people in the audience!!!! Quentin Tarantino should get off his ass and get a major film festival going in the States and show all her films with a Q/A after. Whats wrong with people. One of the greatest female film fighters of our time should not be running a resturant in New Yorks Chinatown. She should be on screen in films like Kill Bill kicking ass. she looks great and im sure can still kick and punch. 57 is not that old. What a waste of talent. A film legend.
Yes! Why doesn't QT do something to get Angela Mao back in the cultural limelight. Look what he did for Pam Grier in Jackie Brown. I always thought Mao had unsuspected depths and could probably be a great dramatic star. Of course, she kicked ass like nobody in the 70s. I saw films like Deadly China Doll at L.A. grindhouses in the 70s and will never forget them.
@msinthrop : Couldn't agree more. She is just AWESOME, and her movies beat the crap out of the computer generated snooze fests we sit through today. Angela, Moon Lee, Yukari Oshima, Kara Hui (sorry If I have forgotten any of your favourites, they're just mine) - Legends all. Oh well, I suppose there's always Mission Impossible ...3...4...10? Who cares or keeps count anyway? You're right - These women are movie star royalty, and should be celebrated as such the world over.
