Hong Kong Scooter Girl Mai Ling


Nothing says "mod" like a scooter. Here's Mai Ling from Screenland No. 9 (June 1960). Doesn't she look smart in her striped capris, checkered sweater, wedge slides, headscarf, and black gloves?

I wish I knew more about Mai Ling. She has always caught my attention whenever I've seen her in the pages of movie magazines. Her debut was Three Sisters (1957), which was also Diana Chang's first Hong Kong movie. After that she seems to have settled into second-string roles in both Mandarin films (at MP&GI) and Cantonese films. Her last movie was MP&GI's Fairy, Ghost, Vixen (1965).
