Blood & Steel: Making of Enter the Dragon 30min

short docs I’ve seen to date. This doc includes 3min of the infamous Ahna Capri
footage, in this footage you will see cast members including Bruce behind the
scenes rehearsing as well as goofing off.
It also includes HK TVB footage of Bruce breaking boards and Bruce
putting on black cat suit. This doc also has a lot of rare pictures during
filming of Bruce and more. This doc also includes interviews with writer
Michael Allin, Tung Wei “Lao”, James Coburn, Ahna Capri, John Saxon “Roper”,
producer Fred Wientrub, photographer Gil Hubbs, producer Paul Heller, Bob Wall
“Oharra”, Peter Archer “Parsons”, Samo Hung, and music composer Lalo Schifrin.
They talk about their personal contributions to the movie and how they got
involved with the project. They also talk about their personal experiences with
Bruce. They did a great job with the
interviews and interacting footage as they explained the movie. This doc was co-produced and written by
fellow fan and Temple of the
Unknown forum visitor David “The Hip” Tadman. He made a huge contribution to the fans in
this piece such as the Ahna Capri footage and more. Great

The Art of Action: Martial Arts in the Movies (Encore channel) 1hour 45min
-This is the most detailed and
informative documentary on Martial Arts to date. Hosted by Samuel L. Jackson,
this doc starts by showing Bruce talking to the monk in E.T.D. They show all
kinds of martial arts movie clips in the intro including all of Bruce’s movies.
They mention Bruce as one of the major influences then they have a long Bruce
Lee segment later in the show that lasts about 12 minutes. All the greats talk
about Bruce and explain how he changed the martial arts genre. 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

2004
Dragon since 1973 HK
doc 126min by Deltamac
- This one of the most recent docs out from HK, but
doesn’t live up to it’s name. It could have been
better made although it does give us some great interviews such as:
Shek Kin (Han from E.T.D), Bee Chan, Jin Di, Pang Him, Li
Kung, Ko Chui, Alex To, Shannon Ma, Chaplin chang, and others.
Most of the people interviewed came out with Bruce in his movies. Just wish they would have shown more footage
and less talking. Quality and sound are
great.

what are you gonna do, Sai Fung? 58min
-This is a great bio/short movie
on Bruce from his early years in HK. It takes place in his teen days and shows
you the type of training he did with Yip Man (played by his real son), such as
training on the Wing Chung Dummy. There is one really intense moment where he
goes to see Yip and works out on the wooden dummy and does some super fast
moves on it. Then goes on to practice Chi Sao with Yip and Yip teaches him a
lesson. They also show the fights he got into and peer pressure. This movie is
all in Cantonese but does have English subs. They show all the way up to the

*-’01
Bruce Lee “A Warrior’s Journey” 1hour
39min
- 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.
*-
’01 Bruce Lee in G.o.D Japanese Artport Video 1hour 30min
-This video is the
Japanese version of Game of Death made by Yuri and Artport productions. It has
more footage shown than A Warrior’s Journey. It has more outtakes at the end of
the movie. This video was taken directly from the movie theater in
*-’03- BRUCE LEE IN G.O.D JAPANESE ARTPORT VIDEO ( SPECIAL EDITION ) 90min
-This same video as above except it came out in 2003 and
it says “SPECIAL EDITION”. It’s narrated by Yuen Biao and is pretty much the
same footage as the one before; it does have A LOT OF different Game of Death
out takes at the end of the movie and they left in some fight scenes cut from
the first edition. The music is much better in this one too. Very
good quality and sound.
*-'98
Bruce Lee "The Intercepting Fist" part 2 55min
- This is another great doc by
Walt Missingham and shows some rare footage from G.o.D and has clips from all
the 4 Longstreet episodes. Talks to people never interviewed before. Pretty good quality & sound. This video had to be
converted from PAL to NTSC. total length 55 min
*-'94 Bruce Lee's "Jeet Kune Do" part 1 56min
- This is the first part of the one above
by Walt Missingham and it is really a great video because it is narrated by
Bruce himself. They took clips from his backyard workouts w/Coburn and other
clips and made it look like he is narrating the video and showing you JKD. Great quality & sound, with a lot of rare footage.
*-'98
Path of the Dragon 60min Narrated
by Shannon Lee
- This doc is also by Walt Missingham but is very different to
the others because not only is it a Bruce Lee doc. But, it also talks about the
history of Kung Fu and talks to some of Bruce's original students. Such as Taky Kimura. He actually talks about his profound
experience of what it was like for him to live in
-'97 Immortal Dragon 50min
- This is the last of the 3
doc's that A&E made on Bruce Lee. It has great info and really informative
and, does show some very good footage from the Longbeach demo that Bruce gave. Quality
and sound of this video are great. total length 50min
-'94
Curse of the Dragon 90min
- This is the second
bio made by A&E and does shows interviews with a lot of Bruce's students
like Kareem, Coburn ect.. It also shows different opinions on Bruce's
death.
Great
quality and sound. total length 90min
*-’77
Bruce Lee “The
Legend” 91min
- This doc was put out by Raymond Chow and Media
-'84 Bruce Lee "The Legend" 89min
- This is pretty much the same doc as the
above one but has less footage on Game of Death. It has 2min & 2 seconds on
the out takes portion and has 1 minute & 38 seconds worth of footage at the
ending credits section. Great Quality and sound.
*-'73 Bruce Lee "The Man &The Legend" 82min
- This is the first doc made by
Raymond Chow and Media
*-'98 Bruce Lee "In His Own Words" from E.T.D 25th anniversary 20min
- This doc is taken from the 25th annv. of
E.T.D by John Little. It was made also look like if Bruce is talking to you and
showing you in his own words his way of life and martial arts. Great quality and sound.
*-'93
Martial Arts Master
70min
- This doc is very hard to find
and they interview a lot of different people such as Jackie Chan, and Bolo
Yeung and others. Richard Bustillo shows
a device that they practiced the one-inch punch on. Also shows some other
training equipment that Bruce used. Great quality and sound.
-'00
Fist to Fist (cool clip of Bruce & Jackie fighting,(made
digitally)
- This is basically a part two to the comparison between Bruce & Jackie but, does include two clips digitally made with computers to make it look like Bruce & Jackie are fighting together. Quality and sound are very good. total length 50min
-'98
Face to Face (Bruce & Jackie fighting style comparison) 50min
-This is just a comparison between the fighting styles of
Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. It just shows a lot of clips from some of both their
movies while being narrated. Quality and sound are very good.
*-'95
Death by Misadventure
91min
-
This is a great doc made by George Tan and shows a totally different view on
the death of Bruce’s life and death. They interview the actual doctors that
where they’re when Bruce died and that examined him. They also show footage
from the TVB demo that Bruce did in HK. And also shows pics of his swollen head
in the hospital. This doc goes on to
also talk about Brandon Lee as well. Quality and sound is very good.
-'96
Cinema of Vengeance 90min
- This doc made by Toby Russell and George
Tan. Cinema of Vengeance is great, it's
jam packed with action. If you like action movies with kung fu you should see
this documentary. Not only does it deal with martial artists like Bruce Lee and
Jackie but the gangster shoot 'em up movies by John
Woo. It has an exclusive interview with Bruce Lee having him explain Kung Fu. And
it is basically a tribute to all the great martial
artist like Bruce, Jackie, Van Damme, Jet Li, and others. But, it does
interview Leo Fong one of Bruce's original students. Quality and sound are
great.
-'97 Top Fighter 100min
-
This is another doc by Toby Russell and George Tan. And it is also basically a
comparison of a lot of the martial artists out there. Oh, and a hilarious
trailer for a Bolo Yeung film called "Chinese Hercules”. Pretty generic
martial arts documentary, some obscure names though. The most worthwhile thing
about this, though, is the listing of little-known fighters, some of whom
really deserve greater stardom. Also they show more footage of the Leo Fong interview
and some other Bruce Lee students.
Quality and sound are great.
-'78 The Warrior Within 85min
- This doc is a tribute to Bruce
Lee and they interview a lot of the people that knew him. Like Chuck Norris,
Mike Stone, and others. They do show
some memorabilia and Robert Lee does play some songs and the Ballad of Bruce
Lee song. Quality and sound are very good.
*-'79 Bruce Lee the Man & the Myth 92min
- This movie is based on Bruce's life and
they get Bruce Li (who else) to double as Bruce. This is also known as “Behind Bruce Lee, Bruce Lee: The True Story, The Dragon Lives (1978)” 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. They also got Unicorn Chan to
be in the movie to add more of a realistic feel to it. Quality and sound is
great.
-'80
The Real Bruce Lee 108min
- This doc is two parts in one. It has a
short documentary on Bruce in the first part and shows clips from his childhood
movies and some of the press conference for the "Unicorn Fist" movie.
Then it has a full-length movie by Dragon Lee.
Quality and sound is pretty good.
-'80
Fist of Fear touch of Death (a.k.a. Dragon & the Cobra) 83min
- 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.
-'95
Bruce Lee & Kung Fu Mania 85min
- This is video is mostly clips of a lot of
other martial artist and shows clips from Bruce's movies. It is just another
video putting Bruce's name and face on the cover so collectors will buy it.
Quality and sound is great.
-'86 The Deadliest Art (a.k.a The Best of Martial Arts Films) 90min
-The Deadliest Art is a compilation-documentary hosted and narrated by actor John Saxon ("Enter the Dragon") and it skips to the phat parts of martial arts movies with reasonable historical effort. It points out how skilled Jackie Chan really is at his craft, rather than just being a stuntman. It also spotlights other Asian performers such as Sho Kosugi and of course, Bruce Lee, as well as non-Asian performers from Cynthia Rothrock to Chuck Norris. Several unknowns are highlighted but the main reason is just to give props to the choreographers of these films. Unfortunately, Jean Claude Van Scam and Lee Van Cleef are also given attention; a minor blemish in an otherwise excellent movie. It's highly entertaining, with prolific and educational content and gives you a real sense of the world of martial arts on film. Great quality and sound.
*-'97 The Secret of the Warriors Power (3 segments on Bruce)"On the Inside" TV show 50min
-
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.
-'97 Way of the Little Dragon 70min
- On this doc they show a lot of footage of Bruce's early movies from he was a child. They also show interviews with Jim Kelly, Bob Baker and John Saxon from "Tracking the Dragon". Quality and sound is very good.

*-'99 Famous Families "The Lee's" 50min Fox Family Channel
- This doc aired on 10.31.99 on
TV. It not only talks about Bruce but, about all the
Lee family and what they are doing now. It also shows footage from the Lee
family archives. They interview John Little and some
of the other nucleus members. No new footage to get excited about but, still
very informative. Quality and sound are great.
*-'99
The Greatest "Bruce Lee"
50min TLC
Channel
- This doc is very good and informative they mostly talk to Linda Lee as she explains how Bruce liked Bob Wall and how he could really make a hit look real. Shows interviews with Joe Lewis and others as well. Very good quality but, sound is good.
-'00 Bruce Lee "Mysteries & Scandals" 25min E TV channel
- This is also one of the latest doc's on
Bruce. Hosted by A.J Benza but, they did a poor job on getting the time line
correct and some of the captions under the people correct. But, it did show
some rare footage of Bruce doing a Wing Chun form in the basement. Quality and
sound is great.
*-'93
Biography “Bruce
Lee” (only aired once)
A&E's 1st bio 60min
- This is the first of the 3 A&E bio's made on Bruce but, this one was aired only once due to copyright laws. They did not secure all the rights on the footage that they showed so they never showed it again. It did show some rare footage of Bruce doing his famous side kick on the HK TVB show and also doing the one inch punch this footage is very clear. I personally call it “the one & only”. This one is really hard to get. Quality and sound is very good.

The Tale of the Dragon by David Tadman HK 90min
- This is the newest
doc on Bruce Lee’s life & death. This video was written and produced by my
friend David Tadman. This documentary is
all in Cantonese but, interviews people such as, George Lee 84 years old (who
made most of Bruce’s training equipment), Allen Joe 77 years old (who
introduced Bruce to weightlifting), Dan Inosanto 63 years old, Robert Lee
and his son Clarence Lee. This video shows footage from the HK TVB Demo that
Bruce gave in HK but, in a very clean picture like never seen before. Also
shows some backyard footage of Bruce working out. And also shows footage of the
Longbeach tournament. Quality and sound
are great.
*-'93
Legend of a Fighter
-
This is a very good doc it has a lot of great footage on Bruce and interviews with
people such as James Demile (he shows pics of him working out with Bruce in
back yard and shows where they first used to practice under a building, in the
parking lot, and the Ruby chow restaurant). Chuck Norris (talks about when him & Bruce first met and how they became good friends
and started training together and how that led to the fight scene on W.O.T.D).
This tape also shows some really cool TV spots that where used to promote the
Green Hornet movie called Fury of the Dragon where they promote Bruce Lee as
Kato and really don't even mention anyone else. And also shows the Ironside
episode clip of Bruce and the full clips of Bruce in Marlowe. Jerry Poteet has
a part in this doc and shows a JKD demonstration and talks about how Bruce
would train them till they were exhausted. This also shows footage of Bruce and
Taky working out and also shows the interviews from Tracking w/ Bob Baker &
John Saxon. Great
sound and quality.
*-'96
Immortal Masters (Taky & Bruce at longbeach int.) 24min UK TV
- This documentary is very cool
because it only shows the best of the best of Martial Arts and
the original people that pretty much started
it all. Such as Bruce Lee, Ed Parker, Joe Lewis, Chuck, Bill
Wallace, and others. In the section where they talk about
Bruce. They show about a 3 minute clip from the Longbeach footage on
Bruce and Taky doing Sticky hands (Bruce is actually Blind
folded). I know what you are thinking...I have seen that footage on other
doc's. Well, I don't think so. This is a different angle, and a very clean
picture and close up. Quality is very good and sound is great.

Japanese Fan (Motion) dressed in G.o.D suit at real pagoda in
-This is a fellow fan and collector friend of mine. He goes to the real pagoda Bruce was going to us as his backdrop for his version of Game of Death. In this video my friend (goes by the name Motion) is fully dressed in the G.o.D suit with shoes, bracelet and full battle/bruise make up and films himself staggering down the entrance of the pagoda in the way Bruce was walking down the stairs in the outtakes from "the legend". 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. He does the "exiting the pagoda" about 4 times and then continues to talk to his friends outside the Pagoda while the camera man zooms in and shows the great detail of his suit and foot print on his chest and very detailed facial bruising. Great quality and sound
