Jim Kelly as "Black Belt Jones"
|
To me, after Bruce Lee, Jim Kelly has got to be the most Charismatic and Memorable Martial Arts film actor of the 70's era. After appearing in the Bruce Lee classic "Enter the Dragon", Kelly went on to star in a number of memorable Black Action films: "Black Belt Jones", "Golden Needles", "Three the Hard Way", "Hot Potato", "Take a Hard Ride", "One Down Two to Go", "Black Samurai", "The Kill Factor", and "Tattoo Connection". Kelly at one time was a Tennis and Boxing champion and is now working on a film comeback.
