    Please, do not say that Bruce Lee commit adultery just because there are widespread rumours or make believe stories. It is very bad to ruin a dead man reputation like that and to his families.

    • @Omnonymous

      He died in another woman's bedroom. An honorable man doesn't spend time alone in a woman's bedroom, a woman not his wife. I actually know a few folks who went to UW with him. He didn't pull his weight on group projects. Not surprising he was too weak to behave honorably in his marriage too.

    As someone who thought he had heard everything about the legend during the last 40 years, having seen dozens of documentaries and reading dozens of books on Bruce Lee, this video still taught me new things. Excellent work and details!

    I wouldn’t say Quentin is a fan of Bruce at all. I find him to be oddly dismissive of his influence on modern day film. He said Fist of Fury 2 was better than the original which is frankly ridiculous and without merit

    How strange that Bruce lee talked about be like water philosophy,yet he died from water in the brain. His superb condition for some unknown reason did not prevent his early death. Myths abound when young idols die young. They offered many reasons for his death.yet they never believe the reality of his death.

    As a Korean, the overwhelming emotional portrayals are what makes it difficult for me to watch quite a few Korean films, and almost most TV shows. Good to know how much direction plays a role in this. Then again, most of these works are targeting the mass Korean audience, who I'm sure the directors understand way better than I ever would (want to)

    The Violin track is obviously great. What isn't mentioned a lot in the people is the full track of the Joker Soundtrack. It feels like the perfect continuation that the Violin part could have had. Especially its ending. Lastly, TDK is an amazing film that still grows on me today.
