Channel 4 wasn't it?

Yeah, it was the documentary Channel Four filmed as part of their Bruce Lee weekend back in 1999.

I didn't know it was still doing the rounds on T.V, one of the few Bio's I've seen with ever youthful looking actor Tony Liu in it.

A shot from one of Lee's childhood movies, The Orphan maybe?.

Could be, I have never seen any of his childhood films other than clips.

You've quoted me from the BL Picture Thread dude, did you mean to do that?.

I've never seen the Orphan, but there was a book released in the 90s about the film, with colour and B&W images. Lee's image in that film, matches the picture you posted of him.

The film remains unreleased, it's a long time since I read the article that reviewed the book, but there might have been a colour print of the movie??.

I did quote you in the Photos thread so I have no idea why the post ended up here. It wasn't my doing. That surprised me.

My favourite Bruce bio.

 

I'd love to see the complete Tony Liu interview featured in the bio.

It would have been nice to know what Bruce was like before and after the success of TBB along with how he compared as a director to Lo Wei or even Robert Clouse for that matter.
