Top 10 Bruce Lee Moments in Film — TopTenzNet

Considering that Bruce Lee is simultaneously known for being one of the greatest martial artists to have ever lived and dying before he’d ever have a chance to sell out in an Expendables movie, most every “cool” thing he has ever done on and off film has been painstakingly categorized and listed online. That said, we think there are still a few moments from Bruce Lee’s filmography people don’t remember or appreciate because sites never want to take the risk of not listing the mirror fight in Enter the Dragon as his best moment.

10. Intimidating a Guy by Punching the Furniture in His Office

Marlowe is a 1969 noir movie notable mostly for being one of the first American films to feature Bruce Lee in a starring role as Winslow Wong, a hyper competent mob enforcer rocking the sharpest turtle neck and suit combo this side of a pre-2011 Apple conference.

While Lee is only on screen for a few minutes, he makes the most of it by demonstrating his considerable martial arts prowess by punching literally every piece of furniture in the eponymous Marlowe’s office to intimidate him into taking a bribe. In just over 30 seconds of screen time, Lee: kicks a hole in Marlowe’s wall, backhands a coat rack and the coat on it, karate chops his bookshelf in two, scissor kicks a lamp clean off the ceiling and then punches through a window before striking a martial arts pose that causes a painting to leap off the wall in fright, all while Marlowe is still sitting there pointing a gun at him. After utterly failing to intimidate Marlowe, who never moves or shows surprise at Lee destroying half his office with backfists and knee strikes, Lee then puts on a pair of sunglasses and casually walks straight out of the office through the door he just punched a hole in. If you think a tubby man in pushing 40 not being scared of a mob enforcer who just demonstrated the ability to best a coatrack in one-on-one combat is unrealistic, just remember that later in the same movie Bruce Lee was…

9. Tricked into Kicking His Way Off a Building After Being Called Gay

After proving that he possesses the not-unintimidating ability to punch and kick stationary objects while screaming, Lee’s character Winslow Wong makes exactly one more appearance in Marlowe, towards the end of the film when Marlowe is in a fancy restaurant eating and generally not being as cool as Bruce Lee.

This time clad in a Colgate white suit and even fluffier turtle neck, Wong reiterates his offer of a bribe to Marlowe, who like before, acts indifferent to the fact he’s being threatened by a man who hours earlier demonstrated the ability to kick through a concrete wall. As before, Wong tries to coerce Marlowe by throwing a few kicks and punches inches away from his face, Marlowe responds by leaping onto a nearby ledge and asking if Wong is, and we’re not making this up, “just a little gay”. Enraged, Lee’s character delivers a final scream before attempting to kick Marlowe off the edge of the building, only for him to miss and fly aimlessly off the edge down onto the street below (5:38 into the above video). So the next time someone tries to tell you Bruce Lee is the best fighter in history because he beat Chuck Norris in one of his films, remind them that in an earlier film, he leapt off a building to his death because someone asked him if he was gay. Speaking of fighting another famous martial artist, who remembers the time Bruce Lee…
