About the film:
The Way of the Dragon is a 1972 Hong Kong martial arts comedy film co-produced and directed by Bruce Lee, who also stars in the lead role.

This is Lee’s only complete directorial film and the last one released during his lifetime.
The film co-stars Nora Miao, Robert Wall, Wei Ping-ou and Chuck Norris (playing his debut screen role).

The Way of the Dragon was released in Hong Kong on 30 December 1972, and in the United States in August 1974.
The film went on to gross an estimated US$130 million worldwide (equivalent to over $700 million adjusted for inflation),
against a tight budget of $130,000, earning a thousand times its budget.

It was the highest-grossing Hong Kong film up until Lee’s next film Enter the Dragon (1973).

The film is primarily set in a restaurant in Rome. The owners are being harassed by a local crime boss, and request help from a relative in Hong Kong.
The help arrives in the form of a young martial artist.
The conflict between the restaurant staff and the gangsters soon escalates. See less
