Red Belt - Arnis/Kali Guro Dan Inosanto appeared Ju-jitso guro

 

In my film Boom Boom Mancini portrays a character modeled upon Danny Inosanto. Dan is the world’s Sensei, or most revered teacher, of kali, or Filipino knife fighting. He learned from the generation of his fathers and uncles who taught the American G.I.’s in the Pacific war. He was a paratrooper in the 101st Airborne, was the first man to receive a black belt from Bruce Lee and teaches, to this day, in his academy in California, and to police and military personnel around the world.

 

My film, “Redbelt,” is about jiujitsu. In the film the redbelt is that unique honor possessed by the form’s most revered teacher. I needed someone, in the film’s last sequence, to portray this teacher, and at the film’s end to pass on the belt to his elected disciple (Chiwetel Ejiofor). Over the course of preproduction I discussed the casting with Renato Magno, my teacher and the film’s fight choreographer and producer. “We need,” I said, “someone with the face of a fighter, someone like Dan Inosanto,” and, over the months of preproduction Renato kept suggesting, “What about Dan Inosanto?” until one day, I suppose it became my idea, and I said, “What about Dan Inosanto” who plays the part, and whose face tells the film’s story: that all fighters are sad. Who could play that part who was not a great fighter? No one.

Forgot the episode: the illegal shipment passed through Manila. The container van contains money for for Iraq's rehabilitation and stolen by an independent contractor with the help of a congressman. It was the congressman that facilitated (called Manila) the release of the container van.
