American Shaolin by Matt Polly

I can hardly wait to see this.

A little bird told me that the rights for American Shaolin have been sold to Wanda/Tencent. Matt confirmed. More to come. :cool:

This is one of those things that anyone who has been there for a decent period of time understands. And anyone who hasn't really has no clue. ;)

Matt interviewed noted playwright David Henry Hwang about his latest work based on the life of Bruce Lee, KUNG FU, for us. Read David Henry Hwang's KUNG FU by Matt Polly.

I saw from Matt's twitter that he just got back from China. I was wondering why he went back.

There's more to come if you sign up for Barker's weekly newsletter

...I remember having a discussion of Salzman's Iron and Silk with Matt. We both felt it was groundbreaking and well written. I find the comparison between Salzman and Polly is inevitable and...

We have a separate thread on Shahar's work already. :cool:

I wish you had told me you were going to cross paths. I'd have set up some sort of prank for him through you. Maybe the Baron could have challenged his Shaolin KF skillz or something.

Hope you...

...it was so funny, I nearly fell out of my chair. I'm now referring to my Shaolin shixiong as Uncle Tom Laowai. :p

Follow the link and read the comments. Matt chimes in and more hilarity...

You have to buy the back issue. ;)

Matt is not planning to lead another tour to Shaolin. If you want read about my experience at Shaolin, I've written extensively about it through out our back...

sun dragon, Matt led two tours to Shaolin Temple in '95 & '96. I'm proud to say I survived both of them. He touched on it in my article The Shaolin Avant Garde: Three New Books Bring Fresh...

Many entries are having trouble with the question. The main reason we put that in there is to eliminate spambots. You have no idea how many people answer the question with "mother's maiden name". ...
