The Inferior Sequel

Most people would agree that this film does not live up to its predecessor. So why did Coburn do it? He was popular at the time. He was good friends with Bruce Lee who was giving him personal tuition, and I guess with Bruce rubbing shoulders with a popular actor such as Coburn could not harm his reputation. To say I train James Coburn to fight in 'In Like Flint' most have done more for Bruce than it did for Coburn. At 27, Bruce would still have to wait until the early 70's when Hong Kong would open their doors to him rather than Hollywood.
