The 60-year-old actress recently earned an Academy Award nomination for her role in the movie Everything Everywhere All at Once. But before reaching interna- tional acclaim, the Malaysian-born Yeoh cut her teeth in action and martial-arts films. O Cinema will honor that phase of her career with a screening of 1992’s Supercop, in which Yeoh stars opposite Jackie Chan. In the film, Yeoh hardly plays a damsel in distress; in- stead, she’s a strong police officer who can hold her own alongside Chan’s character. 7 p.m. Wednesday, at O Cinema South Beach, 1130 Washington Ave., Miami Beach; 786-471- 3269; o-cinema.org. Tickets cost $10 to $25. JOSE D. DURAN [email protected] Photo by Thomas Evans Snatched Up: Wigwood at Gramps Saturday
