Fearless is appearing on Michelle Yeoh's filmography list, but after watching the entire movie, which was nearly two hours, and I didn't even see her shadow (not a single screen frame).
Apparently, the director (stupid Ronny Yu...a total shame to all the Yu's) wanted to shorten the movie and chose to cut out her scenes (which wasn't a lot to start with) and some of Jet li's fight scenes were omitted as well.
TSSSSK!!! Who would do that? Who would in a million years expect MICHELLE YEOH, one of the biggest name actress in Asia...an International well-known actress to get cut out?
As an act of rebellion, I am posting the only 2 scenes she was having...which the director cruelly and heartlessly removed.
Note: Jet Li literally flew to Hong Kong, himself, in order to present his apologies to Michelle. Thanks to her high level of understanding and a great heart, everything ended in good terms. They even had the chance to collaborate once again in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor in 2008. Phew!!!
