Bruce Lee\u2019s daughter has spoken up to say she finds Quentin Tarantino\u2019s take on her father exhausting.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really f \u2013 \u2013 king tired of white men in Hollywood trying to tell me who Bruce Lee was,\u201d Shannon Lee wrote in a Hollywood Reporter<\/a> guest column response to the director\u2019s comments about her dad made on Joe Rogan\u2019s Spotify podcast.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere I\u2019m coming from is \u2026 I can understand his daughter having a problem with it, it\u2019s her
f \u2013 \u2013 king father! I get that. But anybody else? Go suck a d \u2013 \u2013 k,\u201d the 58-year-old auteur told Rogan in response to months of backlash about his controversial depiction of the late actor in \u201cOnce Upon a Time \u2026 in Hollywood.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201c[While] I am grateful that Mr. Tarantino has so generously acknowledged to Joe Rogan that I may have my feelings about his portrayal of my father, I am also grateful for the opportunity to express this,\u201d Lee responded Friday. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m tired of hearing from white men in Hollywood that he was arrogant and an a \u2013 \u2013 hole when they have no idea and cannot fathom what it might have taken to get work in 1960s and \u201970s Hollywood as a Chinese man with (God forbid) an accent, or to try to express an opinion on a set as a perceived foreigner and person of color. I\u2019m tired of white men in Hollywood mistaking his confidence, passion and skill for hubris and therefore finding it necessary to marginalize him and his contributions. I\u2019m tired of white men in Hollywood finding it too challenging to believe that Bruce Lee might have really been good at what he did and maybe even knew how to do it better than them.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

And in Tarantino\u2019s case, she wrote, he never even met her father. Still, the director \u201chapp<\/a>ily dressed the Bride in a knock-off of my father\u2019s yellow jumpsuit and the Crazy 88s in Kato-style masks and outfits for \u2018Kill Bill,\u2019 which many saw as a love letter to Bruce Lee. But love letters usually address the recipient by name, and from what I could observe at the time, Mr. Tarantino tried, interestingly, to avoid saying the name Bruce Lee as much as possible back then.\u201d<\/p>\n

In conclusion, she tells Tarantino, while \u201cI really don\u2019t care if you like him or not \u2026 in the interest of respecting other cultures and experiences you may not understand, I would encourage you to take a pass on commenting further about Bruce Lee and reconsider the impact of your words in a world that doesn\u2019t need more conflict and fewer cultural heroes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shannon Lee also called out Tarantino for having \u201chappily dressed the Bride in a knock-off of my father\u2019s yellow jumpsuit\u201d in \u201cKill Bill.\u201d<\/figcaption>
