Biografi Linda Lee Cadwell

Linda Lee Cadwell (born Linda C. Emery; March 21, 1945) is an American teacher and the widow of martial arts master and actor Bruce Lee.

 

Life and career

Cadwell was born in Everett, Washington, the daughter of Vivian and Everett Emery. Her family was Baptist and of Swedish and English descent. Linda met Bruce Lee while she was attending Garfield High School, where Bruce came to give a Kung Fu demonstration; he was attending the University of Washington at the time. Eventually, she became one of his Kung Fu students when she was attending the University of Washington as a pre-medical student.
She continued to take Kung Fu lessons from him while attending college. They married on August 17, 1964; Linda was a few credits short of graduation from the University of Washington. They had two children together, Brandon Lee and Shannon Lee. Bruce Lee had opened his own Kung Fu school at the time and was teaching Jeet Kune Do. Bruce Lee died suddenly on July 20, 1973 of cerebral edema.
Linda was remarried to Tom Bleecker in 1988, but they divorced in 1990. She married stockbroker Bruce Cadwell in 1991 and they live in Boise, Idaho. In 1996, Bleecker published a book on his version of how Bruce Lee died. Linda Lee Cadwell attempted to stop its publication, but was unsuccessful.[citation needed]
Her son Brandon Lee, an actor like his father, died in a fatal shooting accident on a movie set while filming The Crow on March 31, 1993, nearly twenty years after his father's death. Brandon's fiancee, Eliza Hutton, was involved in an out-of-court settlement with the producers of The Crow in 1993, and was instrumental in having the film released in 1994.
Cadwell has continued to promote Bruce Lee's martial art Jeet Kune Do. She retired in 2001, and her daughter Shannon (who is now in charge of the Lee family estate), together with son-in-law Ian Keasler, run the Bruce Lee Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to teaching Bruce Lee's philosophy on martial arts and his writing on philosophy.

Books

Linda wrote the 1975 book Bruce Lee: The Man Only I Knew (ISBN 0-446-89407-9), on which the 1993 feature film Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story was based. She was portrayed by actress Lauren Holly in the film adaptation.[6] Lee also wrote the 1989 book The Bruce Lee Story (ISBN 0897501217).

Personal Quotes
I'm definitely the lazy one in my family. I used to ask my mom if Dad ever, like, veged out on the couch watching TV or anything. She said no, that both he and Brandon were far more active.
[Concerning the Lee Family Curse Allegations or Conspiracy Theories] I shrug that stuff off. I don't believe in it and find it to be good fodder for folks looking to gossip or ruminate on creepy stories. If I really felt cursed, I would probably be afraid to live my life, and life is meant to be lived.

Mini Biography
He was born on February 1, 1965 to Bruce Lee (Martial Arts idol) and Linda Lee Cadwell. Brother to Shannon Lee. In 1965, they moved to Hong Kong where Brandon became fluent in Cantonese by the age of 8. He attended Boston's Art-Oriented Emerson College in Massachusetts. He studied Martial Arts and drama, like his father. In 1983, he was expelled from school because of misbehavior, but received his diploma at Miraleste High School. He was in Rapid Fire (1992), Showdown in Little Tokyo (1991) and a few more films, including The Crow (1994). He turned down offers to be in Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story (1993). Bruce died (while filming) at the age of 32, of what is to be believed, a brain hemorrhage. Brandon died at the age of 28 on the set of The Crow (1994). The film crew shot a scene in which it was decided to use a gun without consent from the weapons coordinator, who had been sent home early that night. They handed Michael Massee the gun loaded with full power blanks and shot the scene, unaware a bullet head from an inert round had accidentally been lodged in the barrel. Even though the gun was pointed away from Lee, the force from the blank curved the flight of the bullet head and it shattered his spinal cord. The crew only noticed when Lee was slow getting up. The doctors worked desperately for five hours, but it was no use. After his spinal cord was shattered, he had no chance of survival. He was pronounced dead at 1:04 P.M. the next day. He was supposed to marry Eliza Hutton on April 17, 1993. His body was flown to Seattle to be buried beside his father in Lake View Cemetery.

Mini Biography
Born in Oakland, California, USA, Brandon Lee spent the first eight years of his life in Hong Kong. By the time he was able to walk, he was already involved in learning about martial arts from his father, martial arts expert and famed actor Bruce Lee. After Bruce Lee's untimely death, Brandon, his mother Linda Lee Cadwell (an American of Swedish heritage), and his sister Shannon Lee moved to Los Angeles. He attended high school in Los Angeles, where he realized that he had also inherited acting ability along with his martial arts skills. He continued his education and interest in acting at Emerson College in Massachusetts, where he majored in theatre. Having chosen an acting career, Lee took his work seriously. He studied at the Strasberg Academy, with Eric Morris in New York and in Los Angeles, and in Lynette Katselas' class in Los Angeles. His first professional job as an actor came at age twenty, when casting director Lynn Stalmaster asked him to read for a CBS television film, Kung Fu: The Movie (1986) (TV). Lee's first role in a feature film was Long zai jiang hu (1986) (aka "Legacy of Rage" (1986)) for D.M. Films of Hong Kong, followed by a co-starring role in Showdown in Little Tokyo (1991).

Dedication at the end of Lee's last film, The Crow (1994), reads "For Brandon and Eliza (Hutton)".
He is of Chinese, Swedish descent, English and German descent.
Since his father (Bruce) is of German-Chinese descent and his mother (Linda) is of Swedish and English descent (she has blonde hair and blue eyes), Brandon was born with blond hair which is very unusual for a person of mixed race. However, as he aged, his hair color changed to brown.
The apple never falls far from the tree: Brandon played the character "Jake Lo" in Rapid Fire (1992); his father Bruce Lee played the character "Billy Lo" in The Game of Death (1978).
Nephew of Robert Lee
Grandson of actor Hoi-Chuen Lee.
Growing up in Bruce's shadow wasn't always easy for the younger Lee. As a child, Brandon was about to sign up with a local martial-arts studio...until he noticed a large poster of his dad on the wall; Brandon ran from the dojo in tears. Later, as a teenager, he dropped out of two different high-schools (once, after an "altercation" with the vice-principal).
He was a troubled youngster but an outstanding surrogate-parent. When his actress-sister Shannon Lee and a friend were arrested for underage- joyriding in their mom's car, Brandon sat her down and gave her a classic "It's Okay To Have Fun But Don't Ever Take It Too Far" lecture. Indeed, Shannon claims that if Brandon had lived to see her wedding day, he would have walked her down the aisle.


Personal Quotes
I don't want to be remembered as 'the son of Bruce Lee'
I always had a pretty good knack for raising hell.
Because we do not know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. And yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, an afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you cannot conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four, or five times more? Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless.
[About The Crow (1994)] "It's a story about justice for victims".
[About The Crow (1994)] "I've done other films with violence in them, but I must say I've never done anything where I felt the violence was as justified as it is in this...This is justice".
I've done my work and I'm happy with it...I respect my father very much, but I'm a very different person than he was.
"I don't know if I was destined to play this role, but I feel very fortunate to be doing so." (on his last film, "The Crow")
"The trip reinforced my suspicions that, despite my Pacific Rim heritage, I'm about as American as you get." (explaining that he feels no particular affinity for Asia and does not want to live there)
"It's either in the genes, or I watched too many of his movies as a kid" (on why his film roles echo those of his dad)
"It's such an intensely personal thing for me.. I'd probably have been a little too crazy" (On why he refused the role in Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story (1993)).
A fight can express things people might not be able to say with words.
"It's funny, [...] for that sequence the director just said, say something insulting to him, it doesn't matter what. So I said something pretty insulting, and they didn't subtitle it, and they never asked me what it meant. [..] (Laughter)" (on the insult he says in Cantonese in the movie "Rapid Fire")
You only have the burdens on you that you choose to put there.
All I can tell you is that you cannot make choices in your own career, either career choices or choices when you're actually working as an actor, based on trying to downplay or live up to a comparison with somebody else. You just can't do that. You have to do your own work based on your own gut, your own instincts, and your own life.
[About "The Crow"] "It's a story about justice for victims."
[About Eric Draven] He has something he has to do and he is forced to put aside his own pain long enough to go do what he has to do."
[on why moving on after grief is important to realize your own dreams and purpose] Sometimes a personal tragedy provides the impetus we need to move on in life. It's easy to become stuck. We get lazy and we don't want to change. Change can be such a hassle. That's not to say that everyone requires a tragedy in their lives in order to get their ass moving, to take some kind of action or make some kind of decision: but if it happens, it can be definitely open your eyes. It can make you look at life differently, it can change your whole world, 'Why did this have to happen? What have I done? Why couldn't it have been somebody else?' Sometimes it can make you a better person, Or a different person.

asal mula sakuragi hanamichi

hanamichi_real
Bagi Anda semua penggemar komik atau anime jepang mungkin sudah tidak asing lagi dengan karakter Hanamichi Sakuragi. Hanamichi Sakuragi lahir pada tahun 1968 dari keluarga sederhana. Ibunya meninggal saat dia masih anak2.
Tanpa kasih sayang dari sang ibu, dia menggunakan kekerasan (menjadi petarung jalanan) untuk menyelesaikan
masalahnya. Untuk seorang remaja dia sangat tinggi (175cm) pada usia 12 tahun dan tubuhnya jadi terlatih
karena sering berkelahi. Suatu hari, ia berkelahi dengan seorang siswa di sport zone, universitas tokyo.
Kemampuannya berkelahi, kecepatannya dan kekuatan fisiknya menarik perhatian pelatih basket dan menawari
hanamichi untuk bergabung dengan tim basketnya.

Pada suatu latih tanding, pada umur 17 tahun (189cm), melawan tim nasional jepang, hanamichi menunjukkan
kemampuan yang sangat mengejutkan dengan mencetak 33 poin. Walaupun timnya kalah dengan hanya menvetak 59 poin
(59-115), pertandingan tersebut telah menjadi pertandingan pertama yang menggembirakan bagi hanamichi.
Hanamichi menjadi pusat perhatian dan mendapat sebutan sebagai “The Hope of The Japanese Basketball” alias
harapan bagi dunia basket jepang.
Beberapa tahun kemudian, ayahnya jatuh sakit. Hanamichi pulang kembali ke Tokyo. Setelah sampai di Tokyo
ia langsung menuju rumah sakit tempat ayahnya dirawat. Namun ketika menyeberang jalan, ia tertabrak mobil yang melaju
dengan kecepatan tinggi. Meski mempunyai tubuh sekeras besi, efeknya terlalu kuat. Hanamichi pingsan lalu dia segera
dibawa ke rumah sakit namun ia telah meninggal sebelum sampai kamar operasi. Ia meninggal pada usia 18 tahun.
Dunia basket jepang benar-benar hancur karena telah kehilangan bintang masa depannya. Penulis komik, Takehiko Inoue,
menciptakan serial komik “Slam Dunk” berdasarkan kisah masa muda Hanamichi Sakuragi.
Keren ya, ternyata ada versi asli dari karakter kartunnya ya?
