Members quartermainefan Posted July 1, 2013 Members Share Posted July 1, 2013 SAN DIEGO — Actor Jim Kelly, who played a glib American martial artist in "Enter the Dragon" with Bruce Lee, has died. He was 67. Marilyn Dishman, Kelly's ex-wife, said he died Saturday of cancer at his home in San Diego. Sporting an Afro hairstyle and sideburns, Kelly made a splash with his one-liners and fight scenes in the 1973 martial arts classic. His later films included "Three the Hard Way," "Black Belt Jones" and "Black Samurai." As a kid seeing this I thought he was one of the coolest people possible thanks to his superhero antics in "Three The Hard Way" (the greatest Blaxploitation film ever made) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
