A sad loss.

Holy crap. That's tragic. She was very funny and very gifted. Her work in Return of the Drunken Master was truly comic genius.

Wow. I didn't recognize her name, but I remember her from Legend of Drunken Master. She was also a co-star in Rumble in the Bronx. Here's her IMDB page: http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0611315/

That's very sad indeed. The Heroic Trio can never reform.

Oh crap, she was Fei-Hung's stepmother? Man, that was one of my favorite characters ever. What a sad deal.

Wow what a shock. And she was alot younger than I thought.

Is this front-page news for anyone else? Both the Vancouver papers are carrying this in their banners this morning, with a photo and everything.

I mean, the Van's got a MASSIVE Chinese population, but still, I'm kinda surprised. Cool, though.

Anyone else?

Yeah, the trio is over for good I suppose. No news of it in the Washington Post that I found, but then again I kinda skip the appropriate sections.

Go to Google News and search for "Anita Mui"; you'll find dozens, most of them off-the-wire.
