阿金 (1996)

豆知識

The Stunt Woman is a 1996 Hong Kong action film directed by Ann Hui, and produced by Raymond Chow, Catherine Hun and Ka-Foo Lau. It stars Michelle Yeoh and Sammo Hung as stunt workers toiling behind the scenes of the film industry with little recognition of the work they do or the danger it entails. The film's postscript details the serious injury which Yeoh suffered after misjudging a stunt leaping from an overpass onto a moving truck, leaving her seriously injured. The film is dedicated to her, and to the other stunt workers who inspired the film.

Production

Yeoh suffered a severe back injury while filming a stunt where she jumped from an overpass onto a moving truck. While shooting the second take, she fell between two mattresses. She was taken to a nearby hospital, where she was placed in a body cast and treated for several cracked ribs. While convalescing, Yeoh considered retiring from action films. However, filmmaker Quentin Tarantino, on a visit to Hong Kong, dissuaded her.

She made her Hollywood debut the following year in the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies.
