The Big Boss (1971)
Director: Lo Wei
Starring: Bruce Lee, Maria Yi, Han Ying-chieh, Tony Liu, James Tien
Featuring: Nora Miao, Lau Wing, Lam Ching-ying, Gam Saan
The Big Boss was Bruce Lee’s debut kung-fu film and was completed in 1971. Bruce Lee plays Cheng Chao-a young man who has arrived in Taiwan to stay and work with his kind-hearted cousins. From a martial arts perspective, the film has a slow start. However, when two workers discover a stash of drugs hidden in a block of ice, it doesn’t take long before the viewer is taken on vicious spiral of death, horror and lightening fast martial arts action.
