The Philippine box-office laid out the red carpet for Warner Bros. Pictures’ “Crazy Rich Asians” as Filipino movie fans rushed to the cinemas and gave the romantic comedy a record-breaking P82.7-M gross in five days, victoriously opening at No.1.

Michelle Yeoh Upholds Family Legacy in "Crazy Rich Asians"

Real power doesn’t raise its voice. That’s what Michelle Yeoh suggested to director Jon M. Chu in their initial explorations of her character, Eleanor Young, the feisty matriarch, in Warner Bros. Pictures’ new romantic comedy “Crazy Rich Asians.”   

Chu recalls, “She said, I don’t yell because truly powerful people don’t yell.  They don’t need to move one muscle or expend any energy on you, and that can cut more than anything else.’”  

A striking figure—striking terror, some would say—Eleanor is the epitome of poise and polish, flawless from her coiffure to the point of her bespoke shoes, as only the inimitable Yeoh could portray her.  Her happiness at having her eldest son home is tempered by the fact that he is accompanied by a pretty, young woman whose lineage is questionable, yet Nick seems to be utterly smitten with her.  Eleanor’s thinly veiled attempts to be gracious and polite aren’t enough to hide her obvious displeasure.
