Started watching the first third of The Big Boss a.k.a Fists of Glory. Bruce Lee plays Cheng Chao, who visits his nephew Hsu Chien and his relatives, workers in an ice factory. Before he leaves home, Cheng Chao's mother gives him a jade token to wear round his neck as a reminder to keep out of fighting. The neighborhood he visits, however, has thugs who prey on the weak.
Directed by Lo Wei, who also did Fist of Fury. So far fast-paced and eventful. The movie is of additional interest to me because, in a documentary I watched a year ago, B.L.'s life was seriously threatened by jealous members of the production.
