Ou Yang Sha Fei
(Ouyang Shafei, Ouyang Sha-fei, O-Yang Sha Fei, Au Yang Sha-fei)
Actress
Glamorous leading lady Ou Yang Sha Fei was a huge star in 1950's Hong Kong cinema.
She began her career in the 1940's at the age of 16. After starring in dozens of films, she
stopped working for nearly two years following her divorce from her film producer husband in
1953. Resuming her career, Ouyang Shafei later acted in many Shaw Brothers films, including
the epic The 14 Amazons, which depicted the legendary 14 women warriors who helped
the Sung army defeat foreign invaders.
Shafei also appeared in a number of independently produced kung fu movies, including a role as
matriarch of her clan and the mother of Jackie Chan and Nora Miao in Dragon Fist (1979).
She also has the distinction of having acted in a few of the rougher Hong Kong horror movies,
such as Calamity of Snake and Seeding of a Ghost.
In 1990 Ou Yang Sha Fei had a supporting role as Nina Li Chi's extravagant
grandmother in the Chow Yun Fat comedy The Fun, the Luck & the Tycoon.
