This week we're kicking off a martial arts movie month with the film that's widely recognized as the genre founder, at least where Western audiences are concerned, Bruce Lee's Enter the Dragon. We talk about Bruce Lee's ability to extol philosophy through action, his unequaled power and mastery of kung fu, the story's many similarities to the James Bond film structure, the excellent stunt team which included legends Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan, stellar supporting performances from black belts John Saxon and Jim Kelly and Mr. Hong Kong Bolo Yeung, and the way that Bruce Lee and Enter the Dragon permanently changed cinema and influenced the many martial arts films that followed in its wake. Meet us on Han's island for a great episode!
