Dignity & Principle

Like Jackie Chan, Zhang Ziyi is a bootlicker who tried to get on the fast lane by sucking up to men with influence. Chow Yuen Fatt took a dig at her, referring to the subservient way she behaved towards Jackie Chan, ostensibly to beat a path into Hollywood.

Then, there’s Maggie Cheung. How did she end up with a smaller part than Zhang Ziyi in the final cut even though she was supposed to be the lead actress? Obviously, the producer had made some arrangement with Zhang Ziyi after the shoot.
