| Abstract | Come 1997's cinematic installment of the 007 action series, "Bond girl" should take on new meaning. Her persona, at least, is clearly evolving. In January 1997, Hollywood's MGM studio announced that Michelle Yeoh, Hong Kong's top female action star, will become the first Chinese Bond love interest, starring opposite Britain's Pierce Brosnan. The first and only other Asian Bond girl was "Kissy Suzuki," played by Japan's Hama Mie, in 1967's You Only Live Twice. |
