THE ORPHAN (1960) BY LEE SUN-FUNG
Saturday, November 5
2.30PM – 3.50PM (Introduction, guest talk from Sam Ho and question and answer)
4.00PM – 5.45PM (Film screening)
636 Jackson St, San Francisco, CA 94133 (Great Star Theater)
Join CHSA for a screening of The Orphan accompanied by a talk from Hong Kong film critic Sam Ho on the Making of Bruce Lee. The Hong Kong-based curator, researcher, and writer Sam Ho will examine the syncretic identities of Bruce Lee and their formation in the nexus of postwar, colonial Hong Kong.
Bruce Lee grew up as a young Cantoese cinema star. The Orphan was the last film he made before leaving Hong Kong to study in the US. The teenage Lee plays a wild child whose thievery one day lands him in the path of a kindly headmaster. This film is extremely rarely screened anywhere outside of Hong Kong.
