2002 The Art of Action: Martial Arts in the Movies (Encore channel) 96min

            -This is a compilation film, hosted by Samuel L. Jackson, that offers clips from various action films that featured martial arts action sequences. They mention Bruce as one of the 3 major influences then they have a long Bruce Lee segment later in the show that lasts about 12 minutes.  They show footage from RETURN OF THE DRAGON, as well as hearing Lee's philosophies on kung fu. I really like this documentary due to the way it was so well made. They really did their homework and go in depth to show you the origins of the Peking Opera and how it started from there. They also talk about Bruce in these segments: The First Stars,  Golden Harvest,  Kung Fu Tv show. It also features the work of Jet Li, Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and others.

*-’01 Bruce Lee “A Warrior’s Journey”

                - I got this video as of  01.24.01 (Chinese new year) and it is the best documentary on Bruce yet. It starts off with a long biography on the life and accomplishments of Bruce. Then goes on to explain in detail the making of Game of Death they show some outtakes and bloopers of G.o.D to show that they were having fun on the set. It talks about the true intentions that Bruce had for the movie. They do show some reenactments of the original story. Such as Bruce’s family getting kidnapped (they show a look-alike, but, only a behind shot of him). Also they show all the characters arriving to the pagoda wearing their uniforms (again they just use look-alike people and only show them from behind and from a distance).  It also mentions the true meaning behind Game of Death, such as being able to adapt to the different styles and having no style. This video shows all kinds of rare and unseen footage and audio on Bruce. Including Kareem’s red lizard eyes, complete dialogue between all the characters in the movie, and it shows what Bruce does after Kareem’s level. They play some audio of Bruce reading out loud to himself an article that a sports magazine did on him and 3 of his students (Joe Lewis, Chuck Norris, & Mike Stone). They did a very good job on the soundtrack for the fight scenes. They also used some of the sounds from some of Bruce’s movies such as E.T.D, Fists of Fury, and even from the ’78 version of G.o.D. They mainly used the sounds from past movies for Bruce’s yells and war cries. The actual mini Game of Death movie is about 35min of edited footage with no bloopers, double takes or alternate angles and all shot in Widescreen. This video will not be released officially till later this year but, I was fortunate to get a copy of it. The video that will be released later this year and might have less footage than this one. Quality and sound are great. (not for sale or trade) Total length about 1hour & 39 min

-'79 Bruce Lee the Man & the Myth                                          

                - This movie is based on Bruce's life and they get Bruce Li (who else) to double as Bruce.

 I actually like this one better than "Dragon the Bruce Lee story". Because they at least attempt to tell some of the truth and go more into his workout techniques and show some of his conflicts with Chow and Lo Wei.

total length 108

 

-'80 Fist of Fear touch of Death (a.k.a. Dragon & the Cobra)

                - This has to be the worst wannabe documentary on Bruce I have ever seen. First of all they get Fred Williamson to be in the movie? Then try to say that they are interviewing Bruce behind the scenes and it is actually clips from Longstreet dubbed over and in black & white. Then Adrian Marshall comes out saying that he can't talk about Bruce's death and then leaves. (To make it seem like he knows something but hiding it). They also get Bill Louie to act as Bruce in the Kato part but, the whole time he has a mustache? It is really stupid but, as a collector I still have it. Quality and sound are very good.

total length 83

                - This doc came out on a Discovery Channel  on a series called “On the Inside” TV show.  And it is more of a bio on Kung Fu to show where it all began. But, does begin with a quote of Bruce and a clip and it has two other segments on him.  Very informative and explains in detail everything about Kung Fu. Great quality and sound.    total length 50min

He really does a great job in imitating Bruce coming down the stairs of the Pagoda. It's cool to imagine what Bruce would have looked like coming out of the pagoda. And after seeing Motion coming out all beat up and worn out it really would have been something if that footage was shot.

- No Retreat No Surrender                                                                 

-          They Call Me Bruce                                                                            

-          1983 Kentucky Fried Movie 85min long

-           This Movie was originally released in theaters August 10th 1977. It’s movie that helped plant the seeds of Saturday Night Live and gave the Zucker brothers a foot in Hollywood's door, this long-revered television and movie satire combines sex and bathroom humor with timeless sight gags and slapstick. The uproarious film spoofs everything from television commercials, movie trailers, porn, and pop culture in general in a series of hysterical sketches. Infamous sketches include "Cleopatra Schwartz," a blaxploitation spoof featuring a sexy Amazon married to a rabbi; and the extended Bruce Lee film parody "A Fistful of Yen." Raunchy humor and hysterical commentary on the media are served up with reckless abandon by the likes of Bill Bixby, Henry Gibson, George Lazenby, and Donald Sutherland, among countless others.

*- Bruce Lee's last days (French & American versions)1979 Shaw Brothers movie.

                -with Betty Ting Pei as herself and Bruce Lee played by Daniel Lee from "The Killer" and a Cameo by Aqoon from W.O.T.D.  French version taken from original video is letterboxed widescreen with credits and has extra footage that American version does not have, i.e. (nude scenes with Betty Ting and smoking marijuana scenes and more). American version was taken from TV and has different beginning and doesn't show credits. American version is in full screen and quality is not as good. But, does contain footage not shown on French version. i.e (after the press found out that he died in her apartment they start to ask her and "Chow" to explain the reason he was there and what was their relationship and more). This movie shows Betty Ting Pei showing the pain and suffering she went through after Bruce's death. She shows her version of their relationship and her side of the story.
