DESCRIPTION:\n	Discussion with Vincent Lyn and Bobby Samuels\, moderated by
  Warrington Hudlin\, followed by a book signing in the Moving Image Store 
 \n	\n	\n	  ​Kung-fu cinema in Hong Kong has been shaped by its pantheon of
  legendary actors\, who have become as synonymous with the genre as its fi
 lmmakers. This discussion with selected film clips\, moderated by Fist and
  Sword co-curator Warrington Hudlin\, features two martial artists who wer
 e born and raised in the West\, and through their extraordinary skill\, de
 termination\, and risk-taking\, became part of a pioneering lineage of act
 ion stars in Hong Kong. Bobby Samuels is the first African-American induct
 ed into the Hong Kong Stuntman's Association. His prolific film career—spa
 nning fifteen features over two decades—began in 1990 when he moved to Hon
 g Kong. He has worked with legendary directors and choreographers such as 
 Sammo Hung and Yuen Woo-ping. Vincent Lyn is an action star\, model\, auth
 or\, and Grammy-winning musician. He discovered his Ling-Gar kung-fu famil
 y lineage when he went to Hong Kong to connect with his half-Chinese herit
 age. There\, he quickly rose to stardom\, starring in over 25 feature film
 s. Jackie Chan called Lyn one of the best fighters he has ever worked with
 \; they were both featured in the spectacular climatic battle sequence in 
 Operation Condor (1991). Vincent Lyn will sign his book&nbsp\;Kung Fu in t
 he Real World:&nbsp\;The Ling Gar Legacy (2011\,&nbsp\;Budo International 
 Publishing Co.) in the Moving Image Store following the discussion. \n	\n
