Take, for instance, the demise of actress Lin Dai. A winner of the prize for best actress at the Asian Film Awards, she committed suicide in 1964 and set off a wave of suicides and suicide attempts. Actresses Tu Chuang, Li Ting, Le Ti, Mo Chou, Ting Hao and director Chin Chien numbered among those who followed in her footsteps. Fans were shocked.
