'Raise The Red Lantern' Star Discusses Pay Inequalities, Need for Ratings

Veteran actress Gong Li was a star from the start. Modern Chinese cinema grew up with her career, from her appearance in Zhang Yimou’s directorial debut Red Sorghum, in 1987, to her performance in the Oscar-nominated Raise the Red Lantern, which put her in the international spotlight. For The Story of Qiu Ju, she won the Best Actress award at the 1992 Venice Film Festival, and the next year, for her role in Chen Kaige’s Farewell My Concubine, she won a New York Film Critics Circle award.
