    • Film Reviews

Welcome to the Munsons at the Movies podcast. Each episode we delve into the filmography and impact of a randomly selected actor.
In this episode, we explore the life and career of Lucy Liu. Best known for her roles as Alex in Charlie’s Angels films, O-Ren Ishii in the Kill Bill films, and Dr. Joan Watson in Elementary (2012-19), Lucy carved out her own path in Hollywood over the last few decades. Joined once again by Cori Wallace, we discuss how she was typecast on television in her earliest days on screen, the sheer cultural impact of her role on Ally McBeal, ask questions about her representation and their lack of attention to her skillset, and marvel at her per-episode salary on Elementary. Where does she rank on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.
