According to Jackie Chan, Bruce was very humble and accommodating on the set of Enter the Dragon

All evidence suggests Bruce Lee was very cool and giving to all the people he met. I dont believe he took a cocky attitude to anybody in a professional field.

Tarantino did Bruce dirty in a completely erroneous portrayal of Bruce Lee. However It is also known Bruce Lee had a short fuse and temper. His mind went to "fight" thinking before make peace and walk away thinking. He admitted it himself. It made for him becoming a great martial artist but he was never winning a peace prize. I have a feeling a few stuntmen would start shit and Bruce would finish it quickly putting them back in their place. Is that cocky or just showing someone who's the boss?

I used to like Tarantino until he became this smug Hollywood Elitist. By almost all accounts all the stuntmen loved and admired Bruce in set and he looked after them…complete contrast to what Tarantino tried to portray him as in once upon a time.

My master told me that Yip Man doesn't like young street fighters. He considered Bruce Lee, William Sheung and Wong Sheung Leung to be young street fighters... He taught William and Wong Sheung Leung but not really Bruce Lee. It was his friends who taught him wing chun.

I’m sure that your teacher is a very honest guy, however, that doesn’t mean that everything he says is factually true. My information about this time is from my good friend the late Sifu Chan Chee Man, private student (and Si-Hing of Bruce Lee) in Hong Kong. It’s a much more direct source than yours. Also, what asserted is at odds with many of the other students of Yip Man. The reasons why the old man did not teach Bruce have nothing to do with him being a “street fighter“. The assertion that the old man didn’t like “street fighters“ when he needed them to build the reputation for his school is a bit silly.

First off .....i really enjoy your podcast ....it's awesome ! Have you ever done a segment on Jim Kelly ? He earned his props during his career . Also he always says positive things about Bruce Lee . His interviews are on KZbin . He's one of the few that never says anything negative about Bruce . Also i never heard anything negative from you on your podcast either . I bow to you for your respect to Bruce Lee . Thank You , Bill D

Bruce knew his worth, but wasn't a braggart. It's everyone else who claimed how good he was he didn't blow own trumpet. The worst I've seen of bruce is he told Gene tunneys sons, he'd beat their father. Or he said he'd beat Ali when his students asked..

@TheKungFuGenius 10 ай бұрын

All hearsay either way.

@rickocconnell9056 10 ай бұрын

Yes, I think John saxon said he cringed when he heard bruce say it to Jay tunney. And it was Fred weintraub who recalled the conversation between John tunney and bruce. Tunney asked bruce if he could have beaten his dad. Bruce relied " To tell the truth I can beat anyone in the world. If i just sat there and let him hit me, forget. But could he even get close to me?" I think bruce was happy to be self deprecating, I think k it was his natural instinct in fact. But I think if he believed you really wanted answer, and bruce being self deprecating was of no use to you, well then that's another matter

Let him know that I hope he is feeling better, and that he has many that wish him good health and a prosperous, happy family. As someone who has admired him since I first read his books, as well as watched his TV specials and DVD commentaries, I hope he sees this and knows the influence he has had in regards to genre cinema and martial arts.

Ha! Simultaneously easy going and difficult to work with. ☯️. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is an interesting historical fiction/4th wall breaking approach. Some things are turned upside down and omitted for the audience to figure out for themselves. Hollywood being cool, Ms. Tate’s unfortunate circumstances turning out differently and Bruce Lee getting manhandled by a stunt double 😋. Also, Bruce Lee’s training sure did make Ms. Tate proud upon seeing her performance in ‘The Wrecking Crew’. ✌🏻😁.
