After appearing in a number of further Shaw Brothers films, he moved to Golden Harvest, where he played Bruce Lee's cousin in ''The Big Boss'' (1971). This was followed by a role in Lee's next film, ''Fist of Fury''. He was originally intended to co-star in ''Game of Death'', but his role became minor following Bruce Lee's death in 1973. In 1976, Tien starred in John Woo's ''Hand of Death'', a film that also featured early acting roles for the "Three Brothers", Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao. A year later, he appeared in Hung's directorial debut, The Iron-Fisted Monk. From there, he went on to take roles in many more of the three brothers' films for Golden Harvest, often playing bullies or villains. He played roles alongside Jackie Chan in ''Spiritual Kung Fu'' (1978), ''The Fearless Hyena'' (1979) and ''Dragon Fist'' (1979). Appearances with Yuen Biao include ''The Prodigal Son'' (1982), ''Rosa'' (1986) and ''Righting Wrongs'' (1986), and he appeared in Sammo Hung films such as ''Millionaire's Express'' (1986) ''Eastern Condors'' (1986) and ''The Gambling Ghost'' (1991). Tien also had roles in most of the handful of films that starred all three together, including ''Winners and Sinners'' (1983), ''My Lucky Stars'' (1985) and ''Dragons Forever'' (1988). Late in his career, he appeared with Andy Lau in ''Lee Rock'' and ''Lee Rock II'' (both 1991). His last acting role to date was in the final Lucky Stars film, ''How to Meet the Lucky Stars'' (1996), after which he retired. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Tien (actor)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
