About The Film
Tsai Chin’s role in The Joy Luck Club was groundbreaking and changed forever the portrayal of Asian Americans, especially women, in American culture. But this benchmark was not an easy or an obvious one for Tsai Chin. It came after a life filled with ups and downs, the peaks of fame and fortune and the lows of lonesomeness and anonymity.
