JACKIE CHAN: Building an Icon | FULL DOCUMENTARY

Jackie Chan is a true icon of Asian and Chinese culture. Over a 45-year-long career, he has carved a niche for himself as an actor, stuntman, director, and screenwriter, but also singer and formidable businessman.
After starring in almost 200 films, Chan has reconciled fans of genre film and Hollywood blockbusters, whilst bridging the gap between Asian and Western cinema.
Through film excerpts, archive footage and images, and an offbeat approach inspired by the visual codes of the golden age of kung fu films, this documentary will take a look back at the creation of a popular hero who has come to be an icon for China, and the entire Asian continent.
Documentary: Jackie Chan : Humour, Gloire et Kung-Fu
Directed by: Antoine Coursat
Production: Bonum Productions & ZED pour ARTE France

We all love him :)

@@SLICE_Full_Doc 🤣I did ,but now not so much

[@invisibleline4263]

​@@jackie6343probably because he's a CCP supporter which sucks. Hopefully he will understand that and stop supporting it.

Jackie had a great run from 1970-1990s

Jackie Chan Always The Legend ❤

[@Zigidy]

Thanks. I need this tribute. The back story of how he was part of the fray needed to fill the void left by Bruce Lee's death and how the HK industry adapted, how he rose etc was very inspiring and revealing. The heart of this birth story was how he rejected being a copycat of BL and he wedged in his own brand of self deprecating humour into his bread and butter stuntman experience for storytelling. Good stuff. Nice doco.

This man conquered both Asia and America! He is quite possibly the biggest star in the world.

[@alifuller1658]

[@sara.cbc92]

Ride On

[@johnlloyddy7016]

"Painted Faces" is as close as we'll get to a biography about him at the moment. The fact that it features the childhood lives of Sammo and Yuen Biao's too is a bonus.

[@TzuNooo]

One for American cinema and one for Asian cinema. Jackie is the man

[@oddzlukreng]

Jackie chan Is my GOAT

[@KenMasters.]

There should've been a 3D animated biopic film series of Jackie Chan's life and career, and Jackie Chan is voiced by Jackie Chan.

[@angeleusebio9451]

[@jyy9624]

I like Jackie where is Bing Bing? Richard Gere should be respected

[@JGSMusic]

Jackie chan never approved of this documentary.. This is just a fan using narrated audio over mixed footage edited together...

[@paykouncece7984]

Woow really?

[@serteylor4733]

Cakie Chan ❤❤❤😂 super legend

[@seanreyes6866]

28:40 That was a lie and bad editing because he actually said "Money Talks" is a real movie. Watch the special feature of Rush Hour and you'll hear what I'm talking about

[@jessewhite1951]

Great doc, but the needs to be proofed a little bit more before release. multiple audio errors and choppy and unintentional transitions between scenes.

[@thorny5g]

Excuse me, he was born in HK, which at that time belonged to the UK and HK returned to Mainland China in 1997.

[@8cee]

at the end he was already too old when he became really famous in the US with Rush Hour... and came back to China cause he got the same role

U explain who god is...I bet u don't even know

[@KenMasters.]

Chan is a Buddhist and has always wanted to be a role model to children, remaining popular with them due to his good-natured acting style. He has refused to play villains and has almost never used the "F word" in his films. Chan's greatest regret in life is not having received proper education, inspiring him to fund educational institutions around the world. He funded the construction of the Jackie Chan Science Centre at the Australian National University and the establishment of schools in poor regions of China. He has promised over half of his estate to go to charity after he dies.

Jackie must know by now, no matter how 'great he becomes' he'll never be anything of value to the regime once they're through with him.

[@sara.cbc92]

Did it ever occur to you he's actually just playing along and using the CCP to boost his career instead?

[@jackie6343]

Hmm not as nice as i originally thought he was,its a shame he couldnt make his own child smile 😌 or his wife.shame on you Jackie chan 😮

Bruce Lee died sleeping with another woman, jfk sleeping with thousands of women, Michael Jordan, Arnold, Stallone, and more. When you are famous, that's what men dream of. He is Chinese, so there is nothing wrong with him siding with his country. Only you who is chinese but want to sided with the British.
