Watched 'Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story' earlier today. I absolutely love that movie!
There aren't too many people out there that illustrate the racism against Asians in the mid-sixties, some aspects which are still existent today. Bruce didn't just have a difficult journey to become a movie star or martial arts master, he also had to fight with prejudice and acceptance.
It's a pretty inspirational story, and it's so sad that Bruce died at age 32, just as his star was rising. It's also a sad to think that Bruce's son Brandon also met a death too early, while filming the movie that would have made him a household name 'The Crow'.
And this movie has one of the best soundtracks ever - when you hear it you'll think of many movies that have since used it for trailers and commercials.
OK, fine. I just watched it for Jason Scott Lee. Hubba hubba! That one part in the beginning, at the dance, when he fights the sailors and he gets knocked back so hard that this shirt rips and he pulls it off, exposing his ripped muscles and well oiled body.... ahhhhhhhhhh...... yeah...... That is definitely the body type that I like. Yum.
