A Tale of Enter the Dragon (50th Anniversary)
On this day in 1973, one of the most successful martial art films of all time premiere in theatres across the United States. It would be the final completed film of Bruce Lee's career, who suddenly passed away the previous month. On a budget of $850,000, the film became a huge international hit, bringing in $90 million at the box office. 50 years later, it has continued to entertain viewers with its action, memorable characters, and quotable dialogue. My name is Aaron, celebrating this historic day in martial art film history with a look back at the film that Lee had worked tirelessly to create with its cast and crew during the final year of his life. This is A Tale of Enter the Dragon.
