On this BONUS Episode:
We’re taking a trip to Japan this month to check out Michelle Yeoh in Memoirs of a Geisha! Long before she was battling bagels and butt plugs in the multiverse, our queen Michelle played Mameha, the wise geisha mentor in this 2005 drama. Sure, the film has its issues, but Yeoh is absolutely magnetic as always. We couldn’t resist revisiting this gorgeous (if problematic) period piece to celebrate yet another side of Michelle’s incredible career. Even in a supporting role, she steals every scene she’s in.
