Facts About Jackie Chan
Really, with him the plots didn’t much matter.
I don’t think Jackie Chan is a particularly good actor. For example, I can’t see Jackie playing Hamlet. I do, however, think he’s entertaining. He seems to recognize his limitations. Actually, some of Jackie’s most entertaining stuff is the outtakes from his movies. Some are hilarious, but they also show that Jackie is one tough little dude.
I admit that I didn’t know a lot about Chan before doing a little research, but I do think he is one of the best stuntmen I’ve ever seen. So, here are some things you might not have known about Jackie Chan.
1: Despite Jackie’s clean image, he did appear in a soft porn movie.
It was a 1975 skin flick called, “All in the Family.” Jackie appears nude but doesn’t engage in any sexual activity. So, does that fall under the category of nude loitering? Also, I hope Archie and Edith weren’t part of that project.
2: He does use stuntmen.
But not for what you would think. He uses stuntmen for mundane stuff like walking, driving, etc. It’s not that he has trouble walking or driving, he just needs a rest from doing his actual stunts.
