The Fascination of Film Violence is a study of why fictional violence is such an integral part of fiction film. How can something dreadful be a source of art and entertainment? Explanations are sought from the way social and cultural norms and practices have shaped biologically conditioned violence related traits in human behavior.

Lee BarrettJohn Littles title does an admirable job of capturing facets of Bruce Lee that might not be commonly known. As Little explains though; this work is intended more as a supplement or a follow-up to an earlier video presentation. The book does not translate well as a stand alone work and is devoid of any context or history. In short; this book is for someone already well-versed in the story of Bruce Lee; this is not a starting place for the casual reader.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Bruce LeeBy C.M.The book was quite revealing to me and one will admire how hard he must have worked at all he did. I knew of Bruce Lee and have seen some of his movies.I wish the book would have included the story of Brandon Lee; son of the dragon.I am very happy to have bought this book because I appreciate the person Bruce Lee more after reading his life story.I would recommend this biography to those who like biographies.Thank you 0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Better than anticipatedBy Shannon BrennanThis arrived today. Although I was going to save it for a birthday gift; I was excited to give it and instead of waiting a month immediately gave it to the not yet birthday boy. He. Loved. It!To be honest; it wasnt what I expected. It is better! There are a lot of personal photos of the LEe family and although it appeared to be mainly photos; upon further inspection I discovered there is also a tremendous amount of text and information squeezed in too. All and all he and I are very pleased. Thank you.
