 Entertainment: The Linda Wang Ring
Muzi Daily News 2000-04-10 Asian American actress Linda Wang was in the controversial film "Birds of Passage" costarring with Stacy Keach and French actress Charlotte de Turckheim.
The Chinese government banned the filming of the this project in China due to the "One Child Policy" story line. The film later took place in the Philippines.
Wang was cast as Fu -- A pregnant Chinese woman who refused to get an abortion and escaped from her husband and family in China in order to keep her baby girl. For over three and a half months on location Wang was in Cebu, Philippines working on this project. "The director of this film told me that I was under weight for this role. So I went out of my way eating non stop in order to gained 15 pounds in two months prior to the initial filming of this project so I can portray my character more truthfully. Plus, I have never had a child before so I actually moved in with a friend of mine who happened to be pregnant at the time so I can fully understand what a pregnant woman would act and feel during her last days of her pregnancy." Wang says "Toward the end of filming on this project, I actually lost 25 pounds due to the humid weather and boy it was Hot! Hot! Hot! The weather was way over 95 F and I was wearing a heavy coat with a huge artificial stomach wrapped around my waist for over long hours most of the time and I felt like a big, fat Thanksgiving turkey baked in the oven."
