“Touted as one of the finest Chinese actresses of her day, Gong Li debuted with Red Sorghum (1987) by the legendary Zhang Yimou who personally handpicked her for the part. The film went on to be widely appreciated for its sensitive depiction of peasants during the Second Sino-Japanese War. It exposed her to a wider audience after it became the first Chinese film to win a Golden Bear at the 38th Berlinale. Continuing to collaborate with Yimou, she acted in films like Ju Dou (1990), Raise the Red Lantern (1991), and To Live (1994). She also portrayed the role of a complicated Peking Theatre actress in the critically acclaimed drama, Farewell My Concubine. Li has been noted to play strong-willed, sensitive women in period dramas who are often going through hard times.
