A Photographic Diary By John Saxon
Compiled by David Tadman
U.K. release date: 19th August 2005 To celebrate the 32nd Anniversary of the release of Enter The Dragon in the U.S.A.

( from Red-Lizard.co.uk....)
Thirty-two years ago, John Saxon was commissioned for twelve weeks in Hong Kong to work on the first Hollywood produced martial arts motion picture called, “Enter the Dragon”. He was to co-star with a little known Chinese actor called, Bruce Lee, who was a box office success in Hong Kong, but the west was totally ignorant of his skill as a screen entertainer.

Then once the film was released in the United States in August 1973, the film became a box office smash hit, and sent a tidal wave around the world which started what was to be known as the Kung Fu Craze of the seventies.

Unfortunately, only a few weeks before the film was released, one of the main leading actors died, this was to rock the martial arts phenomenon and make the film the ultimate martial arts film ever to be made, but it never made up for the loss of the King of Kung Fu, Bruce Lee.

Now thirty two years on, John Saxon, a keen photographer, has for the first time allowed the world to share some of his photographic diary, which he shot whilst filming for twelve weeks in Hong Kong on the set of the legendary movie, “Enter the Dragon”.


This beautifully red bound A4 diary contains some of the rarest photos of Bruce Lee ever taken.
