繁體中文

林翠(Jeanette Lin Tsui)1936年生於上海,原名曾懿貞,廣東中山人,是演員曾江的胞妹。1949年她隨家人南遷香港,就讀聖士提反女子中學。1953年,年僅十七歲的她考入自由影業公司,取藝名林翠,處女作《女兒心》(1954)由秦劍執導,一炮而紅,成為公司台柱,並得到「學生情人」的稱號,又因片約不斷而被稱為「NO小姐」。在自由影業三年合約期內,她主演多部影片,並外借到其他公司拍攝《化身姑娘》、《流浪兒》、《夜來香》等。1957年,她轉投國際電影懋業(電懋),同年主演的《四千金》大受歡迎,令她在1958年獲第五屆亞洲影展最佳女主角。她形象清新活潑,能正能邪,主演《青春兒女》、《蘭閨風波》等文藝片,是五、六十年代最紅的國語片女星之一,演藝生涯橫跨粵語片與國語片兩個階段。她笑容甜美,除主演自由影業的作品外,亦頻頻外借到其他公司拍片,片量之多使她成為當時最搶手的女星之一。踏入國語片市場後,她的戲路由純情的學生妹延伸至成熟、甚至帶反派色彩的角色,比同輩更寬,也令她在國語片與粵語片之間游走自如。1959年,她與導演秦劍結婚,育有一子陳山河,二人於1967年分居;1969年她改嫁演員王羽,育有女兒王馨平,王馨平後來亦成為歌手。1975年,她創辦真納影業公司。她的演出以自然生動見稱,深受觀眾歡迎,息影後一度移居美國,九十年代返港及赴台參與電視演出,並接拍電視劇。1995年2月22日,她因哮喘病發離世。

Jeanette Lin Tsui was born in Shanghai in 1936 as Tsang Yee-cheng, with family roots in Zhongshan, Guangdong, and was the younger sister of the actor Tsang Kong. She moved to Hong Kong with her family in 1949 and attended St Stephen's Girls' College. In 1953, aged seventeen, she joined Liberty Film Company and took the stage name Lin Tsui; her debut, Sweet Seventeen (1954), directed by Chun Kim, made her a star and the studio's mainstay, earning her the nickname the students' sweetheart and, because of her unbroken run of films, that of 'Miss No'. During her three-year contract with Liberty she headlined many pictures and was also loaned out to other studios for further films such as The Girl Who Changed (Hua Shen Gu Niang). In 1957 she moved to the Motion Picture and General Investment company (Cathay), and Our Sister Hedy that year was such a success that it won her Best Actress at the 5th Asian Film Festival in 1958. Fresh and vivacious and equally convincing as heroine or villain, she headlined many popular romantic films and ranked among the top Mandarin stars of the 1950s and 60s, her career spanning both Cantonese and Mandarin pictures. In 1959 she married the director Chun Kim, with whom she had a son, David Chan, and the couple separated in 1967; in 1969 she married the actor Jimmy Wang Yu, with whom she had a daughter, Linda Wong, who became a singer. She founded Zhenna Film Company in 1975 and later moved briefly to the United States, returning to Hong Kong television in the 1990s. She died of an asthma attack on 22 February 1995.
