Extractions: If all the roles for women in Hollywood were housed in one giant file cabinet, among the folders marked bookish schoolgirl, wide-eyed ingénue and wanton temptress, hardened district attorney, lonely soccer mom and rocking-chair-bound granny, there would be one labeled She Kicks Butt. Lucy Liu imagines that this is where you would find her picture. In the decade or so she has been in the business, Ms. Liu has fashioned a lucrative career out of playing the icy sex kitten first as the emotionally barren Ling Woo on Fox's popular legal series, "Ally McBeal," then as a coldblooded dominatrix in "Payback," a frosty princess in Jackie Chan's "Shanghai Noon," a federal agent in the box office bust "Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever" and as Alex Munday, the bikini-waxer by day, private investigator by night in the "Charlie's Angels" franchise. But it is her role as O-Ren Ishii, a kimono-clad femme fatale in Quentin Tarantino's blood-drenched, slice-'em-up "Kill Bill: Vol. 1" (which opened Friday), that has elevated Ms. Liu, 34, to an entirely new level of ruthlessness and secured the actress's position as one of America's leading action heroines, at the risk of being typecast as a dragon lady.
