Deliberate mistake: Rather than using real Bruce Lee footage only for the final fight scenes, so the undisguised Billy Lo's different appearance might make sense after his surgery, the filmmakers instead spliced real Bruce Lee face footage throughout the early film giving the character a constantly changing face from scene to scene.
Game of Death (1978)
1 deliberate mistake
Directed by: Bruce Lee, Robert Clouse
Starring: Bruce Lee, Gig Young, Colleen Camp, Dean Jagger
Continuity mistake: When Billy Lo is fighting the huge guy, he gets a footprint stamped onto his jumpsuit, the print changes size throughout the fight.
Trivia: Two of Bruce Lee's earlier films, The Way of the Dragon and Fist of Fury, are seen as films Billy Lo (Bruce Lee) is starring in, Fist of Fury being the one where Billy is shot.
