Interesting facts

Bruce Lee: The Man, The Myth is a 1976 Hong Kong semi-biographical martial arts film starring Ho Chung-tao and directed by Ng See-yuen. The film was released in Hong Kong on 28 October 1976.

Production

Linda Lee was played by Lynda Hirst, an English woman who was an army wife stationed in Hong Kong at the time of the filming. The director, having searched unsuccessfully for some time for a suitable 'Linda Lee' among available actresses, came across Lynda Hirst whilst out shopping in a local market and remarked on her resemblance to the late star's wife. On learning she was a 'Westerner' he immediately cast her in the (small) role.
