Guest MacLeod613 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 In the original Bruce Lee "Fist of Fury," in the scene where Lee stumbles across the two men who poisoned Huo Yuan-jia's food, he's able to tell that one of the men is Japanese because the man is not wearing a shirt. How is he able to do this? I'm asking in all honesty and seriousness, because I've never understood this scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest killer meteor Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Yeah, mostly because the camera focuses on his Japanese nipples even though he is played by a Chinese actor. Perhaps they should have put in the dialogue something that said he was Japanese but then Lo Wei was never a man for doing the simple thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stormybman Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 No, gentlemen, it's because the villan was sporting a Japanese girddle, which Lee eyes when he bursts through the door. The guy pulls up the girddle like suspenders, before the ensuing fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lei Kung Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Thanks for clarifying this finally. I've wondered about this for months now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stormybman Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Another note on this film, in the original language, it is interpreted that Chen Chen is Hua Yuan Chia's favorite pupil, not necessarily his best. In fact, upon his first visit to the Japanese dojo, Chen explains in Mandarin original dialogue, " I'm the worst student at Ching Wu..." before the fighting begins. It's supposed to be his unorthodox approach to fighting that Master Hua loved about Chen, and it plays well throughout the film because he doesn't employ the style of the rest of the students. This often gets lost when this film is discussed. This is also why Lee was perfect for this role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
