Rental in U.S.
- Sunshine, Memoirs of a Geisha, Silver Hawk, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Tomorrow Never Dies, and the U.S. versions of Supercop, Supercop 2 (i.e. Project S), Twin Warriors (i.e. Tai Chi Master), can be found in general video stores.
- I've also seen The Heroic Trio, Wing Chun and Executioners (English dubbed versions) in BlockBuster Video.
- For older Michelle's films, you may rent them from your local chinese video stores or some indepedent video stores which carry Hong Kong films. Most of Michelle's movies have English subtitles.

On-line Shopping

Here is a list of some online video stores which carry Michelle Yeoh films.
Note 1 Michelle Yeoh Web Theatre has no affiliation with any of these companies, and is not responsible for their contents.
Note 2 Some dealers have Michelle listed on Jet Li's Fearless. You may want to confirm with the dealer before making the purchase since Michelle's scenes are cut out from the film and only certain director-cut version includes her cameo scenes.

- Most dealers listed here are North America based. Usually their DVDs are coded All Regions (Region 0) unless specified otherwise.
- sometimes some search engines don't work well, i.e., searching on name "Michelle Yeoh" may not give all Michelle movies they actually carry. You may also try to search for film titles directly.
- You may also try eBay, but be careful with the region code and format.

Subtitled or Dubbed?
Up to year 2000, except for Tomorrow Never Dies, all older Michelle Yeoh films are made in Chinese (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and The Soong Sisters in Mandarin; others in Cantonese). There exist English subtitled versions for all her non-English films. It is recommended to watch them in the original language with subtitles, if possible.

DVD Guide
The Asian DVD Guide provides technique information and users' reviews to various versions of Chinese language DVDs, including Michelle's. Excellent site. You need to search films by titles, i.e., search for "butterfly and sword" or "butterfly".
