Michelle Yeoh was at her best in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000), displaying her impressive martial arts and stunt choreography skills. She performed most of her stunts, including the breathtaking wirework and gravity-defying swordplay. In one memorable scene, Yeoh's character fights atop a bamboo forest while performing highly complex choreography. She had a natural ability for martial arts and rigorous training in both kung fu and tai chi adding a silky smooth yet brutally strong energy that added to a beautiful film for one of her generation's finest action stars.
