Reviving Memories of Kim Maree Penn - Mike Retter remembers an Australian actor who conquered Hong Kong


Kim Maree Penn was the Sharon Stone of martial arts films. The most beautiful gweilo to ever work in the Hong Kong film industry. 

The peak of her career would be the classic In The Line Of Duty 5: Middleman ( In The Line Of Duty V: Middleman), with a fantastic end fight against Cynthia Khan (hand to hand, sword fighting). Kim Maree Penn is actually a security expert, bodyguard and martial arts instructor in real life. 

She was able to enjoy one of Hong Kong cinema's peak eras. Pre-CGI, Kim Maree Penn employed lots of physicality and stunt-work in her often villainous roles.
