However, there was animosity between Bruce and Chuck on the set and the final fight scene shows it. Wish someone would find and release the out-takes of that one!

    Tony, are you sure you aren't confusing Chuck with Bob Wall? Wall and Lee had a well-known falling-out on the set that reflects in their fight scene. I suspect you may be talking about him.

    The Lee-Wall antagonism was something Enter the Dragon director Robert Clouse made up. Unless you are referring to something different?

    No confusion on my part, Jeffro, and I'm along the line of thought presented by Chris McLean.

    Thanks Tony, Chris, Dadi. I guess I just brought up another example of why rumor-talk is somewhat pointless.
