Thank you Matthew for telling the truth about Bruce. Most people have no idea how incredible he was, their trying to knock him down another way with the drugs that he took. For me that’s his business but who he was and what he did can never be diminished. Unbelievable man.

I can tell you that Bruce didn't do drug's. Bruce,according to some, traiined 4 hour's before breakfast and trained another 4 hours after work. He's dedication to his body conditioning doesn't leave room for drug's. He was a perfectionist and drug's do not fit in the equation. He took supplements for body development. The idea of the rumor, of drug's is made up, to hurt his greatness.

Bruce Lee was a great inspiration to my generation. His dedication and discipline to forging his body into a leathal weapon is legendary. I have lost count of how many times I have seen all of his movies. ENTER THE DRAGON is my my all time favorite !!! No surprise there. Bruce Lee was way ahead of his time.

From my point of view, Bruce became a huge global star because even though he started anew in the states and gradually developed visions of grandeur, at some point he must've had a deep reflection on his "extradition" from Hong Kong for his waywardness, the deplorable hardships he experienced as a restaurant worker, the negative feedback and disapproval from his in-laws, the subsequent struggle he experienced after the cancellation of The Green Hornet and his comparability to the likes of Steve McQueen and his studious and focused older brother Peter. Not to mention, knowing that his father and mother's hopes hung on his changing his life for the better. There had to no doubt have been moments of fear, doubt, and despair, as he contemplated his future until something inside of him "broke the camel's back", so to speak. From that moment on, he was determined and hell bent on dedicating himself completely to his craft to the obsessive point of no return.

Bruce,took a boxing move,or kung Fu move and improved it to suit his height and weight. His belief was no one could defend,against his style and moves. Fighting was a living breathing,spirt and he gave it life,through his philosophy. He developed his body to combine with his mind to become one,therefore no one could defeat him,and only a genius can reach that level.

How the main public thinks is with James Dean it’s the cigarette coat fast car and sullen attitude. With Brando it’s the I don’t give a dame gig and with Bruce Lee it’s the cat screams and expressions and they don’t go any further. Fortunately with the internet many have been able to see the real magic of these individuals. But the main public doesn’t have a voice in the Medea so many don’t realize that their not alone in how they feel about these people and many others. What needs to happen is a rebirth in the entertainment industry to bring all the people together so that there can be unity on all the things that we find similar rather then the opposite. I think we are in the eye of the needle and that’s why it seems pretty bleak at the moment. But something is stirring underneath the scenes that will set this world on fire. And I mean the blazing fire of the human spirit. You and many others are helping to stir that pot by informing the public of these very important people who have contributed to this thing called a human being. And this change will be the human races last stand before the big awakening into the dawn of the new world. Either that or we’re screwed. 😪

Bruce was and still is and remains as the davinci of his time and 21st century .. The Miles Davis of body movement expression and martial arts generally reinventing martial arts movement and expression of the body again and again like M.Davis did with music being an outcast of the norm creating a style of his own , his own unique perception of reality but to create that you need to have the sperm of a genius marked in your soul .... Many people have the sperm of a genius around the known world but very few people achieve greatness by"" ACTIVATING "" and evolving that sperm into creativity .... An artist is a philosopher who like Nitse stated IN A WAY THAT THE SOUL OF AN ARTIST IS THE SOUL OF THE MAN WHO FORGES HIMSELF THE MAN FINDS HIMSELF AND CREATES HIMSELF A SUPERIOR SOUL .... FOR EXAMPLE ( S.SEAGAL A CREDITED MASTER HAS A PUNK ATTITUDE TO ALL FELLOW MARTIAL ARTS-ACTORS BY BELITTLING EVERYONE SAYING THAT THEY ARE FAKE TOUGH GUYS . HE HAS A POINT BUT BRUCE BY BEING ABOVE THE HERD AND SELFCOMPOSED NEVER WENT PUBLIC DEMISING KNOWN CHAMPIONS , MARTIAL ARTIST AND ATHLETES BEATEN BY HIM ALTHOUGH THAT WAS A FACT...... THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GREDIT MASTER AND A GREAT MAN AND MARTIAL ARTIST IS THAT A MARTIAL ARTIST IS LIKE MYAMOTO MUSASHI ALWAYS SELFSUFICIENT AKWAYS BESTING HIMSELF NOT THROUGH RIVALRY AND ANTAGONISMS BUT BEING PRODUCTIVE ACTIVE COMPETITOR ... THOSE PEOPLE ALWAYS BEING EXORCISED BY THE MASS LIKE A BAD REFLECTION OF YOURSELF... THEIR SUPEREGO DOESN'T LEAVE ANY ROOM FOR SELF IMPROVEMENTS

Strange to hear that Bruce Lee experienced discrimination from Chinese people. I came from Hong Kong and I've never heard of Chinese people saying Bruce Lee was not fully Chinese. I've heard of Chinese people criticize him for being arrogant but never for being Eurasian. Frankly, to me and probably for many Chinese people he was fully Chinese.

I love Bruce Lee, no disrespect. However, he was a man who talked the talk but didn't walk the walk. He was a cocaine addict, and he had multiple affairs. He died of a cannabis (hashish) overdose in an actress's apartment with whom he was having an affair. His producer, Raymond Chow, and his wife, Linda, lied stating he died at home. That is why the initial obituaries erroneously reported he died at home. If he lived what he preached, he would have had a long life and become the greatest movie-action star of all time. Because of his hubris, he died at the age of 32 and we all lost out on some incredible movies never to be made.

Unfortunately most people don't know that Bruce had a bad cocaine habit as well as acid. Bruce also had many affairs on his wife Linda. Linda even lied in a court case about the fact he used drugs which she most definitely knew about and also was involved with. Bruce really hid who he truly was holding this perfec image he shown to everyone else. I love the Bruce Lee Character that was the martial artist and actor/family man. But thats not who Bruce really was. He was a drug user, filanderer and Hollywood personality. His wife Linda wasn't much to look at. Bruce was able to control Linda because she would do anything for him. She really loved Bruce but he took advantage of her in my opinion.

"But thats not who Bruce really was". Sorry pal but you are wrong! Yes, he was a drug user, filanderer and Hollywood personaliy in his final years. But the young Lee, who was 18, 23 or 25 years old was indeed a martial artist and family man. But it all changed when he came in contact with guys like S. McQueen and others. He himself did chose this way so i dont feel any mercy at all. He wanted to be Mr Superhotshot and payed the price for it. He lost control over himself when he was around 29/30 years old, still trained like a berserk since his ego was like i am the invincible street fighter, but lost many of his values. And about this women thing: Sorry i am getting sick of it! Linda L. Cadwell is a complete overrated person. She would be some unknown women from Seattle without him. She was the right wife for a 23 years old martial arts instructor, yes, but not the right wife anymore for a 30-32 coke actor, coke head and womanizer. Thats why Linda ignored all of this in the Dragon movie, this was her fairy tale of Bruce like he was when he was 22 when they met. He changed very much later and she ignored it. Their marriage was in a bad state and was doomed to failure. His death helped her in the end. Sounds hard but its the truth. She looked like a Skeleton in early 1973, but a year later in 1974 she looks reliefed and very happy and healthy. And her new love was lawyer Adrian Marshall. Linda gets too much credit imo. She fooled the whole world and faked how Bruce really was in the end. And this is now the spot where some hater like Quentin can make his point. He knows through his connections the real Lee was different in his final years, and now Linda pays the price for lying about decades. Thats why she was so quiet when Tarantino wrote in his novel to Once Upon A Time In Hollywood "Bruce Lee was like Charles Manson". Thats a very deep insult but yet Linda and Shannon are quiet to this day. They are scared because they know Tarantino has some very strong informatons about Lee which are undeniable true. When you do a timeline when Tarantino attacks Lee so much on the Rogan podcast with the time when the drug letters came out of the blue, it all happened within 5 days or so. On Wednesday Tarantino was on Rogan s podcast, on Saturday or Sunday Shannon replied and tried to counter, on Monday the letters show up. Sure can be a conincidence but the timeline stinks. Its even strange today that nobody can say for sure who brought these letters to the auction. FIrst the said it was Bob Bakers daughter, then they said they emerged on some flea market, but to this day nobody can say for sure. Fact is there are definately ppl in Hollywood who dislike Lee, most of them are probably death, but some of them are still alive or at least have young family members who would continiue their "work". So or so it is so damn strange Linda never replied to Quentins claim Bruce was like Charlie Manson. If he had wrote "Elvis was like Charles Manson", you can be sure Priscilla Presley would have kicked Quentins butt very hard! But LInda said nothing, zero. Either she is scared Tarantino knows even more, or she didnt love Bruce anymore in the end, which would make her a suspect being responsible for his death. Both things would bring a negative light to her, and this would explain why she is quiet.

You fools fell for the Psy Ops about ‘drugs letters’, have they bern ‘forensically tested for authenticity .. pure fakery and rumours..., Lee had many powerful enemies in powerful places who want to smear his reputation. Dark forces did the same to Elvis. Even if he did take Coke that was his personal choice ( maybe he used it in moderation for stress relief for back pain) and none of anyone’s business. Haters love to tear down others. how does that change the man/ his legacy/ his contribution towards bringing folks from different disciplines/races / walks of life across the world together in unity. The Elite Controllers wanted to ‘use’ him and he refused to be a pawn controlled and was fiercely independent like a Political JFK. He suffered an untimely demise just months Bf ETD made him an Inernational Star..who would have become an I Independent film maker/ producer’ He had had a similar collapse as a result of poisoning on 10 July 1973. with kidney failure and brain swelling.. This is not special but hard facts backed by blood work! Classic organised dark arts by Pro Operators. Polly concluded in a faux pas that he died from ‘ heat stroke’ BS.

All of the charges stemmed from a real estate deal between Wall and at least eight investors, who claimed the former actor and owner of Robert Alan Wall Investments, Inc., improperly used money they had invested to pay off his personal debts. According to a representative at the California Department of Real Estate, Wall’s real estate license will be revoked as a result of the sentence, effective July 15, 1997."

One lifetime choice led both to his Star rapidly rising and his sudden fall. Perhaps it was his fate. Fame/ Success - v - safety.. Polly doesn’t address this. Choices lead to destinies.. He was rather naive and got entrapped with The Triads front Companies who funded most of the Hong Kong Movie 🎥 Industry. Raymond Chow gave him fame but needed Bruce to sell his Soul if he wanted to survive in the Industry. Money creates Evil. He was a money cash cow for the Hong Kong film industry and Chow was quick to exploit his financial naivety. It led to his untimely demise as the Chow movie backers did not want him to leave Hong Kong and return to the USA and destroy their cash cow.Industry . So constant Triad death threats on the movie ETD. as Triads were trying to enforce discipline on an errant movie star mirroring the theme of Chows later BL fake movie GOD movie where Triads threaten BL and his girlfriend! Truth is stranger than fiction. But BL lives on in our hearts and his reputation will endure as one of the 21 st Century greats. Actor, Movie Icon Innovator, Husband , Martial Artist ,Philosopher and great loving human being..

I know the big boss masterminds...who their tools were we can't say. But definitely he was murdered, although the heat stroke etc contributed. Ditto Brandon. My beef is with the ppl here who will walk into the Lincoln library and keep their eyes closed. James DeMile said those who didn't know Bruce can say he was fake, but those who knew him can't make it he same claim. Sifo JD challenged the backstabbers after Bruce died. That is a main reason why Joe Lewis changed his tune and said I couldn't hit Bruce with a bullet. See John Little interview YT on kung fu genius, a guy who has actually read and interviewed eyewitnesses Such as Hayward Nishioka Pan Am Games gold medalist judo. Black in shotokan. He said Bruce was untouchable, frustrating. He could attack from 15 feet away and after he hit he was 15 feet away. I read a martial arts journalist who confirmed Bruce could slap his head coming in from 15 away. Again and again. DeMile is gone now but keyboard killers can visit his students or Inosanto Academy and say Lee was mediocre. Verify the story whereJoe Lewis sparred Lee's student and slapped his ears in friendly spar. Bruce gloved up and Joe was helpless. Verify Brenda Venus gf of Joe who was awed by him. In sparring with Bruce it "was witnessing two Greek gods"... Lee's movements couldn't be seen until he scored on Joe.
