So uninhibited, so animated! Jackie Chan is as much fun to watch in conversation as he is in action. Who says you have to speak proper English to get your point across?

The best Jackie Chan interview I've ever seen! I especially enjoyed how Jackie broke down The Bruce Lee Mystique by saying that Bruce was surrounded by yes-men off-camera and hired stuntment who made him look good on-camera as well as saved the film company money by not doing things that would have prompted re-takes. I strongly agree with Charlie's assessment of Jackie's ability as a storyteller. It was charming how Jackie was surprised by the compliment and hoped that Charlie understood him. Now, his english has improved but he probably still feels that it's hard for Americans to understand him. Excellent show.
