Especially at the beginning; when Bruce was practicing with the Cotton Punch Pad.... But; U have to understand; when Bruce was in the West.....They Didn't take him seriously; some "Top" Hollywood Ppl. Essentially; Shunned Him and even Stole many of his Skills and Ideas for Films Etc. But; Film and Media Circles; Aside.... If U want things that R; "Real"; Try the Following; 4-Star US General; Joseph Warren STILWELL. 'Vinegar Joe'. WWII. Now; that's a Genuine Hero to the Chinese Ppl. P.S. He carried a "REAL" US-Issued Rifle with Real Bullets at all times....
@@garychin5321 wow really message and thoughtful words mean the world to me. Thank you so so much for those kind and generous words. I do my best to keep the spirit and legacy of our hero Bruce Lee alive. Like you I got the bug back in 1973 when I was only 14 years old in the theater in New York Citycalled the Academy of music. Since then I have never looked back and Bruce Lee continues to be an inspiration to me and millions around the world. Continued enjoyment on the channel my friend all the best and thanks again for those beautiful and kind words have a wonderful day.
@neilbeatbeat BRUCE LEE WAS ONLY AN ACTOR. NO REAL FIGHT RECORD, ONLY FICTIONAL STAGED REHEARSED SCRIPTED KUNG-FU MOVIES. THIS IS NOT REAL FIGHTING, MIKE TYSON OR MUHAMMAD ALI WOULD DESTROY BRUCE LEE WITHIN ONE SECOND 🤔
I had mentioned in an interview that Bruce was a free spirit above everything else. I’ve met fighters philosophers artists and dedicated practitioners but I’ve never met a free spirit. For that is the core I believe for with a free spirit one is only going to like what they like and do what they do without any need to ask someone else. There the courage to stand up against traditions is not even an effort but it is being oneself. I think many get lost in they have to be like him to be the best of themselves which the opposite is true. Every gem and every color is perfect. Thank you for this show and for your shining presence as well.
Glen well said brother and thank you for sharing those profound thoughts. Really enjoyed reading it. I’m also thank you for your kind words. Continued in German on the channel and so glad you enjoyed the episode. Have a wonderful weekend and see you on Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short enjoy and be well.
@harrymckenzie4476 I like your comments on this post mate and you're right about the way of the Dragon, it was made in 1972 which is 52 years ago and with no special effects or fancy camera work either. It's still classed as one of the best fight scenes of all time. Bruce Lee had a lot of skills and great moves, but I think his execution of his signature question mark kick is supreme and has yet to be equalled
You are very welcome Mike. Glad you enjoyed the show. Have a great weekend and see you on Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short. Enjoy my friend and be well.
Joann glad you enjoyed the vintage view from those black-and-white photos. I love vintage items photos posters magazines on Bruce as well so appreciate the comment. Glad you enjoyed the show. See you on Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short enjoy and have a wonderful weekend. Be well.
This was the one I was waiting for. My favorite Bruce Lee movie. The first one I saw. You still call it "Return" I now call it "Way"....whatever the title this is the ultimate in Bruce expressing himself.
@@carlmurray-cf4pd certainly was great! Was released here in 1974 as return of the dragon. That’s when I saw it in the movie theaters. Glad you enjoyed the show in the real photos. Have a great weekend and see you on Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short. Enjoy my friend and thanks for commenting and subscribing to the channel. Appreciate your support as always.
It was originally titled-Way of the Dragon-Bruce never intended for this film to be seen by western audiences,for he thought it was below the west's movie standards.Some guys at Warner Brothers studio got a hold of this movie,renamed it-Return of the Dragon-then released it in the US.
@@kerry-j4m that is correct and how it went down. Way of the dragon represented the way of Bruce Lee or Bruce Lee‘s way to enter the film industry and to say hey people here comes Bruce Lee take a look - the way of the dragon.
Yes; the Footage at Kai Tai is Unique; it is a Shame he spent so little time with His Children....See; when the Little Girl I'd Assume is Shannon Clutching his Daddy's Leg.... Bruce will Now Simply be a God and Shannon Lee; Martial Arts Especially in Movie's Circles; Kung Fu, Royalty..... One; is already observing when her Generation is Doing; and "Warrior" is a Very Classy Act!

In those days, video cameras were very expensive, but I'm sure there's got to be more home movies about bruce Lee somewhere, I wish there were more videos of bruce Lee in real competition , I understand when they were making enter the dragon in China many times bruce was challenged on the streets and they go into a real fight imagine having a video of thst now that would be a pure gold.
Joe thanks for sharing your thoughts and glad you enjoyed this episode. Like you I feel there’s more return of the Dragon footage that will show up hopefully next year. And if any real fights of Bruce Lee show up, that would be pure goal as you said. Don’t think we’re gonna see that, but that would be amazing. Thanks for subscribing to the channel.

Bruce Lee still thrills us with his movies and behind the scenes videos. He will always be remembered as a brave Hero as well a good hearted gentleman. Several Crores of People take birth in this world and embrace death without making any emerging impacts. But our Hero Bruce Lee accomplished the joy of his realised ambition within his short life. Real Super Man.

Bruce lee was a student of life. He just kept learning and learning, and he knew there was more to it than just styles. Once he found out it was personal expression, that is where he became timeless.

Hi Charles! Excellent behind-the-scenes photos with the whole staff of return of the dragon. I see the kicking bag that I believe Hector Martinez owns now whether it's a replica or the actual one is cool to see. Visiting Angela at her movie filming of Hapkido ,while filming Return of the dragon was kind of cool to see, all in all excellent photos for the fans to see for the first time. Great photos for the television interview for return of the dragon with Chuck Norris and Bob.wall. it's actually amazing to see how so many photos were taking in a short period of time, just about every aspect of what Bruce Lee did in his life as far as motion pictures. To think there's more outtakes or scenes still existing that we haven't seen. I hope it's brought out in the open before our lifetime. Thanks Charles excellent episode be well,God bless.👏👏👏👍🎥👊
Luis agreed hopefully we get a chance to see the extra footage of Bruce Lee on the set of return of the dragon sometime in our lifetime. Lol she had to be the most photographed person alive back then especially in the early 70s when cameras weren’t very prevalent as they are now. Glad you enjoyed the show.

@@CharlesDamianoBLC Hi Luis. Have you checked out "Spanish Dracula," yet? If not you are in for a real treat. It was filmed on the set of Bela Lugosi's Dracula using the same script. But the cinematography is better and so is the leading lady. Of course no one could replace Lugosi in the part. It was thought to be lost, but is available on TH-cam. Enjoy.👍🦇🎥🎬

I've been a big fan of martial arts since I was a kid and the first movie I saw was Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee. He was a phenomenon that was very unique and skilled in his technical abilities and movement. He trained differently, he was different and it's amazing how fast and strong he was for his size and weight. Even after his death over 50 years ago, he's still mentioned and respected for his abilities. Any other famous martial artist who was involved with him have all said he was a gifted human being.
@@Bobmeister-vr2lh thanks for sharing your story. He certainly was a gifted human being. He’s one of a kind and still the greatest of all time. Thanks again nice to meet you and continued enjoyment on the channel. Be well.
@CharlesDamianoBLC nice to meet you too mate and thanks for your reply. There have been many other great martial artists in the movies over the years, Jackie Chan, Jet Li etc....but in all Bruce Lee's movies, he never used any wires or devices to enhance the effect of his moves. In fact, they had to slow down the frame rate to fully capture his amazing speed. What I always liked about his fighting style was that there was nothing fixed, and every move he made was like a natural reflex which is what made it so extraordinary to watch. Love and best wishes to you and yours mate 💙
@@Bobmeister-vr2lh well said my friend. He wanted to produce fight scenes that were as realistically performed as possible as if you were watching a real fight take place and that’s what made him so amazing on screen simply brilliance in action. Nice catching up and sharing our thoughts, continued enjoyment on the channel and be well, buddy.
Keep up the great work Bruce Lee continues to be an inspiration to us. And he is still the greatest of all time. Glad you enjoyed and see you on Friday for my new Bruce Lee episode. Have a great rest of the week and thanks for subscribing to the channel appreciate your support.
What a video Charles! On a side note….I think Bruce’s fashion sense is also ahead of the times in Hong Kong. He always looks sharp and in style for the 70s. 😁👍
Thank you, Peter. Totally agree. He had great fashion sense and was way ahead of his time. Glad you enjoyed the show. See you Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short enjoy and have a wonderful Labor Day.
Charles you done a beautiful job on this episode... and I hope one day we will come across some new footage of Bruce on way of the Dragon.. special shout out to Bey Logan

Hopefully it gets released in our lifetime lol thanks always have a wonderful weekend and see you on Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short enjoy brother and be well

This man worked his backside off to entertain everyone on the big screen. Unfortunately he didn’t get to enjoy the fruits of his success. Sorry to be negative. But that one ? Still stands out for this legend. A workaholic human being. His name tremors to this day. Bruce was scouting in Asia for investors to promote the martial arts movie business. You know that he would have become a huge mogulexecutive had he lived, and would have called all the shots.
Very true! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and glad you enjoyed! Have a great weekend and see you Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short! Be well my friend!
When you look at these photos you can tell that it was both business and “fun” for Bruce Lee and his crew. Nothing like doing what you love, knowing that it will be appreciated by the fans and at the same time continue to break box office records in Hong Kong and later internationally. Way of the Dragon was special because who ever even thought of having a battle in the Roman Colosseum between two Martial Artists? Bruce did! Cool episode my brother! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

That more than anything places you in a position of unasssiable authority. YOU are the guy. YOU are the authority on all things relating to Bruce Lee.
I and thousands like me will forever be in your debt. Kudos man. I salute you.
A Bruce Lee fan ever since I first his magnificence circa 1974 in a flea bitten cinema house in a run down North East mining down in Olde England... FFS Such are the random caprices of Life. This one of which I will never regret
Best wishes. Neil H. Beattie.
Hi All; I have to admit; some of the Footage here I have only seen for the very First time...
Especially at the beginning; when Bruce was practicing with the Cotton Punch Pad....
But; U have to understand; when Bruce was in the West.....They Didn't take him seriously; some "Top" Hollywood Ppl. Essentially; Shunned Him and even Stole many of his Skills and Ideas for Films Etc.
But; Film and Media Circles; Aside....
If U want things that R; "Real"; Try the Following; 4-Star US General; Joseph Warren STILWELL. 'Vinegar Joe'. WWII.
Now; that's a Genuine Hero to the Chinese Ppl.
P.S. He carried a "REAL" US-Issued Rifle with Real Bullets at all times....
@@garychin5321 wow really message and thoughtful words mean the world to me. Thank you so so much for those kind and generous words. I do my best to keep the spirit and legacy of our hero Bruce Lee alive. Like you I got the bug back in 1973 when I was only 14 years old in the theater in New York Citycalled the Academy of music. Since then I have never looked back and Bruce Lee continues to be an inspiration to me and millions around the world. Continued enjoyment on the channel my friend all the best and thanks again for those beautiful and kind words have a wonderful day.
@neilbeatbeat BRUCE LEE WAS ONLY AN ACTOR. NO REAL FIGHT RECORD, ONLY FICTIONAL STAGED REHEARSED SCRIPTED KUNG-FU MOVIES. THIS IS NOT REAL FIGHTING, MIKE TYSON OR MUHAMMAD ALI WOULD DESTROY BRUCE LEE WITHIN ONE SECOND 🤔
I love these types of photos of people being together compared to todays photos of people! Back then they were so much more down to earth.
Agreed glad you enjoyed these photos and the episode to see you on Friday for the next one. Have a great week and be well my friend.
I had mentioned in an interview that Bruce was a free spirit above everything else. I’ve met fighters philosophers artists and dedicated practitioners but I’ve never met a free spirit. For that is the core I believe for with a free spirit one is only going to like what they like and do what they do without any need to ask someone else. There the courage to stand up against traditions is not even an effort but it is being oneself. I think many get lost in they have to be like him to be the best of themselves which the opposite is true. Every gem and every color is perfect. Thank you for this show and for your shining presence as well.
Glen well said brother and thank you for sharing those profound thoughts. Really enjoyed reading it. I’m also thank you for your kind words. Continued in German on the channel and so glad you enjoyed the episode. Have a wonderful weekend and see you on Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short enjoy and be well.
@@CharlesDamianoBLC Thank you always a pleasure.
Way of the Dragon.. very excited about this one
Harry your favorite movie my friend you’re going to love this one! Enjoy brother and see you tomorrow
@harrymckenzie4476 I like your comments on this post mate and you're right about the way of the Dragon, it was made in 1972 which is 52 years ago and with no special effects or fancy camera work either. It's still classed as one of the best fight scenes of all time. Bruce Lee had a lot of skills and great moves, but I think his execution of his signature question mark kick is supreme and has yet to be equalled
@@Bobmeister-vr2lhtotally agree just incredible!!!
Charles … another fantastic episode. Great rare photos.
Thanks brother. Glad you enjoyed it. This is one of my favorites as well. Have a great weekend.
What a great video Charles thank you so much.
You are very welcome Mike. Glad you enjoyed the show. Have a great weekend and see you on Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short. Enjoy my friend and be well.
The black and white photos give this presentation a vintage feel. Appreciate the nostalgic presentation.

Love this episode video
Larry, thanks see you on Friday
This was the one I was waiting for. My favorite Bruce Lee movie. The first one I saw. You still call it "Return" I now call it "Way"....whatever the title this is the ultimate in Bruce expressing himself.
@@carlmurray-cf4pd certainly was great! Was released here in 1974 as return of the dragon. That’s when I saw it in the movie theaters. Glad you enjoyed the show in the real photos. Have a great weekend and see you on Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short. Enjoy my friend and thanks for commenting and subscribing to the channel. Appreciate your support as always.
It was originally titled-Way of the Dragon-Bruce never intended for this film to be seen by western audiences,for he thought it was below the west's movie standards.Some guys at Warner Brothers studio got a hold of this movie,renamed it-Return of the Dragon-then released it in the US.
@@kerry-j4m that is correct and how it went down. Way of the dragon represented the way of Bruce Lee or Bruce Lee‘s way to enter the film industry and to say hey people here comes Bruce Lee take a look - the way of the dragon.
Yes; the Footage at Kai Tai is Unique; it is a Shame he spent so little time with His Children....See; when the Little Girl I'd Assume is Shannon Clutching his Daddy's Leg....
Bruce will Now Simply be a God and Shannon Lee; Martial Arts Especially in Movie's Circles; Kung Fu, Royalty.....
One; is already observing when her Generation is Doing; and "Warrior" is a Very Classy Act!
@@garychin5321yes I hear you . It was almost as if he was racing against time at the pace. He was living life. It would’ve been interesting to see what would’ve took place if he slowed down a bit. Thanks for commenting. Appreciate your input and see you tomorrow for my new Bruce Lee episode be well Gary and enjoy your day.

Amazing - Extraordinary Photos!!! 👍 Thanks!!!
Many thanks!
In those days, video cameras were very expensive, but I'm sure there's got to be more home movies about bruce Lee somewhere, I wish there were more videos of bruce Lee in real competition , I understand when they were making enter the dragon in China many times bruce was challenged on the streets and they go into a real fight imagine having a video of thst now that would be a pure gold.
Joe thanks for sharing your thoughts and glad you enjoyed this episode. Like you I feel there’s more return of the Dragon footage that will show up hopefully next year. And if any real fights of Bruce Lee show up, that would be pure goal as you said. Don’t think we’re gonna see that, but that would be amazing. Thanks for subscribing to the channel.

Bruce Lee still thrills us with his movies and behind the scenes videos. He will always be remembered as a brave Hero as well a good hearted gentleman. Several Crores of People take birth in this world and embrace death without making any emerging impacts. But our Hero Bruce Lee accomplished the joy of his realised ambition within his short life. Real Super Man.

Bruce lee was a student of life. He just kept learning and learning, and he knew there was more to it than just styles. Once he found out it was personal expression, that is where he became timeless.

Hi Charles! Excellent behind-the-scenes photos with the whole staff of return of the dragon. I see the kicking bag that I believe Hector Martinez owns now whether it's a replica or the actual one is cool to see. Visiting Angela at her movie filming of Hapkido ,while filming Return of the dragon was kind of cool to see, all in all excellent photos for the fans to see for the first time. Great photos for the television interview for return of the dragon with Chuck Norris and Bob.wall. it's actually amazing to see how so many photos were taking in a short period of time, just about every aspect of what Bruce Lee did in his life as far as motion pictures. To think there's more outtakes or scenes still existing that we haven't seen. I hope it's brought out in the open before our lifetime. Thanks Charles excellent episode be well,God bless.👏👏👏👍🎥👊
Luis agreed hopefully we get a chance to see the extra footage of Bruce Lee on the set of return of the dragon sometime in our lifetime. Lol she had to be the most photographed person alive back then especially in the early 70s when cameras weren’t very prevalent as they are now. Glad you enjoyed the show.

@@CharlesDamianoBLC Hi Luis. Have you checked out "Spanish Dracula," yet? If not you are in for a real treat. It was filmed on the set of Bela Lugosi's Dracula using the same script. But the cinematography is better and so is the leading lady. Of course no one could replace Lugosi in the part. It was thought to be lost, but is available on TH-cam. Enjoy.👍🦇🎥🎬

I've been a big fan of martial arts since I was a kid and the first movie I saw was Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee. He was a phenomenon that was very unique and skilled in his technical abilities and movement. He trained differently, he was different and it's amazing how fast and strong he was for his size and weight. Even after his death over 50 years ago, he's still mentioned and respected for his abilities. Any other famous martial artist who was involved with him have all said he was a gifted human being.
@@Bobmeister-vr2lh thanks for sharing your story. He certainly was a gifted human being. He’s one of a kind and still the greatest of all time. Thanks again nice to meet you and continued enjoyment on the channel. Be well.
@CharlesDamianoBLC nice to meet you too mate and thanks for your reply. There have been many other great martial artists in the movies over the years, Jackie Chan, Jet Li etc....but in all Bruce Lee's movies, he never used any wires or devices to enhance the effect of his moves. In fact, they had to slow down the frame rate to fully capture his amazing speed. What I always liked about his fighting style was that there was nothing fixed, and every move he made was like a natural reflex which is what made it so extraordinary to watch. Love and best wishes to you and yours mate 💙
@@Bobmeister-vr2lh well said my friend. He wanted to produce fight scenes that were as realistically performed as possible as if you were watching a real fight take place and that’s what made him so amazing on screen simply brilliance in action. Nice catching up and sharing our thoughts, continued enjoyment on the channel and be well, buddy.

Hay vemos las inexplicables excepcionales cualidades físicas ,mentales y tecnotacticas de Bruce Lee he practicado artes marciales durante años desde de mi juventud temprana y nunca había conocido esta faceta de la vida de Bruce Lee y sus consejos me han hecho más fuerte y rápido en mi juventud me decían mis amigos señor Lee por hacer las flexiones en dos dedos

Thankyou Charles for your efforts enjoyed this video my favourite Bruce movie I think physically he never was better in his movies he was a man of vision going to Italy for filming from what Bob wall said Bruce worked himself into the ground on this one had he not died he’d of done many great things in the future no doubt
David Thanks for sharing your thoughts and glad you enjoyed! Have a great weekend and see you Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short! Be well my friend! What’s great film!

Thanks for this Charles, and incredible set of photos, many (most 😮) of which I'd never seen before. Are you coming to Rise of the Dragon in Leeds, UK, October 2024?
Martin unfortunately I will not be attending but keep me posted on how it goes! Have fun! Glad you enjoyed todays episode! have a great weekend and see you Tuesday for my new Lee short!
Excellent show. Some where out there there just has to be stacks of this stuff.and what about the green hornet and other shows? That footage just has to be out there
Regs would have to agree there has three more out there. Thanks for commenting and subscribe to the channel continued enjoyment.! glad you enjoyed the show. See you on Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short. Have a great weekend and be well.
This man worked his backside off to entertain everyone on the big screen. Unfortunately he didn’t get to enjoy the fruits of his success.
Sorry to be negative. But that one ? Still stands out for this legend.
A workaholic human being. His name tremors to this day.
Bruce was scouting in Asia for investors to promote the martial arts movie business. You know that he would have become a huge mogulexecutive had he lived, and would have called all the shots.
Very true! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and glad you enjoyed! Have a great weekend and see you Tuesday for my new Bruce Lee short! Be well my friend!
When you look at these photos you can tell that it was both business and “fun” for Bruce Lee and his crew. Nothing like doing what you love, knowing that it will be appreciated by the fans and at the same time continue to break box office records in Hong Kong and later internationally. Way of the Dragon was special because who ever even thought of having a battle in the Roman Colosseum between two Martial Artists? Bruce did! Cool episode my brother! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for commenting well and sharing your thoughts. Appreciate it. You are spot on. Glad you enjoyed the show. Talk soon my brother.
