Bruce Lee: Films
built 212 days ago
On 20th July 1973, Bruce Lee was at Betty Ting-pei's flat discussing the script for their upcoming film, Game of Death. During the course of the afternoon, Bruce developed a severe headache. Betty gave him a tablet of Equagestic- a strong asprin-based drug prescribed to her by her doctor. At around 7:30PM Bruce Lee went and lay down in a bedroom. At 9PM Raymond Chow telephoned to find out why Bruce Lee had not turned up for a meeting. Betty said she could not wake Bruce.

Bruce Lee was filming a yet to be released title in Beijing in the summer of 1970. Because of poor planning by the director, a lunar eclipse threatened to stop production for 4 hours of that day. Bruce contemplated destroying the moon with a one inch punch, but recanted, knowing that in 3 days the night shoots were to occur under moonlight. Bruce flew into a dervish frenzy and impregnated all the women between the 90' East and 150' west meridians. Since all of these women stopped menstruating instantaneously, the moon rapidly repositioned itself within its orbit over the western hemisphere, as everyone, including Bruce knows that the singular purpose of the moon's orbit is to time the menses of human females.

Throughout the duration, Bruce Lee worked incredibly long hours and was rarely home before three in the morning. There was no proper script and the director, the cigar smoking Lo Wei, seemed uninterested in the project. For example, he was once caught listening to horse racing on the radio when he was supposed to be directing a love scene. In spite of these problems, the film's storyline was strong and was guaranteed to please any Chinese audience.

Lee's father Hoi-Chuen was a famous Cantonese Opera star. Thus, through his father, Bruce was introduced into films at a very young age and appeared in several short black-and-white films as a child. Lee had his first role as a baby who was carried onto the stage. By the time he was 18, he had appeared in twenty films.[3]
