(02/01/1965-03/31/1993)
10 Years Later

Brandon Lee was born on Februrary 1,1965 in Oakland, California. He of course was the son of the late great Martial Artist Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee died of a brain edema on July 20, 1973 when Brandon was only 9 Years Old. His Unbelievable Fighting Abilities as well as Actorial efforts highlighted a short ,but successful career.

For Brandon at times it must have been a struggle to be the son of the legendary Bruce Lee. Critics would often focus on this point rather than Brandon’s ambition and drive to be a great actor. The following quote is from Brandon. “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.” Brandon and his fiancee, Eliza Hutton were to have been married after wrapping up the Crow. Sadly with end of production only two weeks away, an uncleaned prop gun, which apparently had a lodged shell stuck in the barrel, was fired by actor Michael Massee (Funboy) at Brandon during one of the flashback scenes.The crew continued shooting the scene, until they realized something was wrong. He was bleeding badly from the abdomen and later died. His wedding with Eliza was scheduled for April 17, 1993. Despite this, The Crow was later finished with spectacular state of the art special effects and was dedicated in Brandon's and Eliza's honor.
