Enter the Dragon - Making Of

Blood and Steel:
The Cast and Crew talk about "Enter the Dragon" (1973).

[@RebelThoughts82]

This movie was a total game changer for action flicks! Bruce and this movie inspired decades of action stars!

[@diezeldiamond1041]

Still to this day " ENTER THE DRAGON" still as exciting and dynamic as the day it was released in 1973.

[@samsingh3753]

Thank you and thats what i think ,,well said

[@TBSU1987]

I agree!

[@samsingh3753]

Totally agree 👍

[@kunio554]

Bruce Lee's movies never get old🙏👍🏼

[@johnwebb2442]

Enter The Dragon, the greatest martial art film that's ever made. Timeless classic.

[@Sazerrider]

Best Martial Arts Film in History. RIP Bruce Lee, John Saxon, Jim Kelly, Bob Wall, Shih Kien, Peter Archer, and Ahna Capri.

[@imaxyxia]

Along side Way of the Dragon & game of death are two of the best ones.

Bruce Lee would have been Hollywood's biggest star, had he lived.

[@ibanez9179]

That's one of the reasons they killed him.

[@ivanidlehand9651]

@@ibanez9179 Exactly. The film industry from America and China didn't want to share the market on how their films were to be marketed. Bruce Lee and his team gave Chinese Kung-Fu theater that western style of Hollywood. America didn't want to brand things the Chinese way and the Chinese surely didn't want to brand things the way the west does. It's sad. Just as sad as Donnie Yen playing second fiddle to a weekend warrior like Keanu Reeves. But that's business I guess in the film industry and nothing has really changed.

[@markbardwell5015]

Yes he would have but they was and is so damn racist

[@nicktan4530]

[@mokanemalone]

Are u talking about Jim Kelly lol 🤣🤪😆

[@AllSpace]

as a kid at the movies driven in' days I never get sick of this movie and still enjoy watching him, and how Bruce was such a sculpture looking character like no other, simply beautiful man

[@dubisbetterthansub5254]

The most culturally significant martial arts film in history, as well as one of the main factors in East Asian entertainment reaching a global audience.

[@imaxyxia]

Not many people know this, Bruce Lee has a sparring match at the beginning with Sammo hung. & at the end he fights Jackie Chan...

[@georgecontreras2219]

The speed and power with which he broke those three taped boards is just second to none, second to none 😶‍🌫️😱

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Hard to believe when this came out on VHS it was cut to pieces and nunchuck scenes were all deleted. Took forever till rereleases had the footage. Was so annoying. Bruce Lee was such a legend. Every martial arts film since and even films Iike John Wick are all a direct result of Bruce Lee changing martial arts in cinema.

[@davidpenn9396]

I know this is one of The Best Bruce Lee Films ever made because this was Bruce’s Way of becoming more of a Hollywood Movie Star like never before even still he made Television Series which helped jump start his career But! it was his Martial Arts that helped Bruce become just who he really was which that is Something I do Admire

[@eddieparker945]

The Enter the Dragon 🐉 theme was a perfect song 🎶 to describe how cool 😎😎😎 the 3 Dudes in the 🎥 was! Bruce in attitude & focus!! Roper in popularity & having a good time! Williams the competition of encountering other warriors like himself

[@ianhughes5090]

Enter The Dragon is and always will be the film that other Martial Arts films are judge by. There will never be another Bruce Lee (Li Jun Fan,) there will never be another Enter the Dragon ( Even the suppose remake will have alot to live up to if it ever gets made) It such a shame that Bruce died when he did as if he was alive today the films he would have been made would have been out standing and would have created the super star he crave to become. Bruce inspires people that were not even born when he died he left such a mark on our would that his legacy will just live on though his work and teachings . I was 4 when he died and even though | neve met him of any of his family I feel part of his family and journey like so many others he will remain the King of Martial Arts films and the Master of philosophy even though he only made a hand full they still get talk about. Thank you for sharing this video.

[@user-qs7kk9xy2h]

I watched many documentaries about Bruce Lee, but this was the first time I saw them. I was very impressed. Thank you.

[@sharrief36]

This was the first movie that me and my father went to see back in 1973. Bruce Lee and my Father are two of the men that influence my life. Peace and Blessing to my father Guillermo and Sifu Bruce Lee.

[@JamesJames-jt3ts]

A movie that set a benchmark so high that no other martial arts movies that followed came even close

[@cedricnicholson7446]

I wish Bruce had the opportunity to see the opening of the film. RIP to so many of the actors and contributors who have passed on from this amazing piece of film art

[@wadereynoldsdeadpool5768]

I wish Jim Kelly didn't have to die

[@FaithfulServant316]

It's good to see Jim Kelly again. Bruce is Still the king of martial arts. There will never be another like him ever again, only ones trying to copy him or praising his God-given abilities are about the best they can do.

[@olo8482]

King? He was actor

[@sachidhananthanarayanan2270]

Believe what I write here: I saw this wonderful movie, Enter the Dragon, of my only martial arts hero, Bruce Lee in Eros Cinema in Bombay, 2 years after it was released in 1973. I was stunned to comprehend the speed of Bruce Lee. Four more times I saw this movie, ED, in Eros. In 6 years time, in whichever movie house ED was screened in Bombay, , I became a habitual viewer. I was a bachelor till then. Some close relatives of my would be bride with her parents were coming to visit me one day. But, my ticket to see ED was booked beforehand on the date and time of their visit. My elder sister desisted me from going out to see ED saying that important relatives come to see me on my marriage proposal. But, I went out to see the movie in Prabhat Theatre, Thane, Bombay. At 70 years old now, I saw N number of times ED. In Singapore in 1993, a Bruce Lee movie celebration was held screening in almost all movie houses all his immortal classics. Knowing that I am a die-hard fan of Bruce Lee, my friend Chan Ah Chai presented me with all the videos of Bruce Lee from the Golden Harvest and WB production houses. Just today, in Netfliks, I finished seeing the 50th (last) episode of the biopic of Bruce Lee. I was in tears. As I type this post, I feel that someone living in me till date is dead today leaving me shell shocked and in tears filled in my eyes. C.

Met Ahna Capri a few years before her death - she was still as beautiful as ever.

[@NikoHL]

I saw all of Bruce Lee's films during the 70's when I was a teenager. Some of Bruce's earlier HK movies are still my favourites; Big Boss, Fist of Fury..

[@aceventura5398]

Bruce would have known how great this film was. In this movie he became the best Bond ever. The right Music can lift a good scene /movie into GREATNESS. Idont think Lalo Shiffrin got enough credit for helping this film become the industry standard for martial arts films. INCREDIBLE connection to every scene.

[@15montholddrummer42]

I went & saw this film every Saturday for 2 months!!!... on a few l actually hid behind a curtain & watched it 3 times on same day!!!... As a young guy... it changed my life!... l wanted to be in the movies!!!... told my parents... they newrly killed me!!!😁... l was in a school play... after the play... a guy came up to me & said...

[@SteveJLegallet]

Fantastic documentary!

[@chriszavala4027]

You have offended my family and you have offended the Shaolin temple.

[@Quantum3691]

Bruce wanted to be involved in the fight choreography at all levels. This was his Magnum Opus. The cast and the crew behind the scenes pulled off what is still considered the absolute best martial arts movie to date. It was no easy task by any means because Bruce settled for nothing less than perfection. It had to be frustrating at times. The story line revolved around a James Bond-type character played by Bruce to the max. Such a great film.

[@DarkEchoesHorror]

I love Enter The Dragon. I’m interested where you’d conclude it’s still considered “the absolute best martial arts movie to date”? I’m a fan and it’s a great film but would be interested to hear more on what you know regarding the films status all these years later. 🐉

[@Quantum3691]

@@DarkEchoesHorror Greetings! Yes, I still believe it is because it is still being talked about over 60 years later. The story and plot made sense and is palpable. It wasn't a rushed production like many martial arts films today which feature mostly violence and crashes and explosions, just to cater to the audiences craving for excitement and nothing more. It was pretty balanced as far as the flow of scenes is concerned. The fight scenes stood out as the most memorable to date. And it is still one of the highest grossing films of all time. Interested to know your thoughts as well.

[@Quantum3691]

@@DarkEchoesHorror Another one of my favorite films, but not as popular as ETD, happens to be Heroes Of The East aka Shaolin Challenges Ninja starring Gordon Liu. The story is unique and different compared to many Chinese Kung Fu films with amazing empty hand and weapons fight choreography. It keeps the fighting at a realistic level which I prefer. It is truly 💯 % a must watch film as well.

I wonder why this documentary did not take the time to include the Mr. Han, Star, Sek Khin. He was historically such a famous action star actor in Hong Kong with loads of kung-fu action in the 1950's movie series "Wong Fei Hung." (Master Wong was a famous kung fu instructor in Hong Kong who frequently had to fight against evil minded or jealous kung fu instructors and their students).

[@alhara4843]

Awesome teamwork from all the participants

There's TONS of kids this movie 🍿 catapulted into household names of martial arts cinema ⭐!! Bolo Yze , Jim Kelly, Stephen, Jackie Chan ,Wilson Tong, Angela ( Bruce's sis in the movie 🍿) the list goes on

[@MM-ig1iv]

Damn this was great! wish it was 2 hours long! If anyone hasn't ever seen Kentucky fried movie(1977) I highly suggest it! it's a comedy and parody of Enter the dragon towards the end.. you'll have to be patient.. but they actually do a great job at it!

thnx gonna watch it ahaha

Bruce Lee était phénoménal ces chorégraphie de combat son toujours inégalés et de plus il était un bon commedien et savait être drôle. Un grand homme qui est parti bien trop tôt. Que le grand Bruce Lee repose en paix il a tellement de lui Pour nôtre plus grand plaisir. Que Bruce Lee repose paix.

Bruce when he died in 1973 at was a chance move to America after the success of the film would have done and in early 90s he would have quitting acting and teaching jeet kune do and Chai Chai dancing and also a book written on his dancing and martial arts he would have loved the story about his life in 1993

this is my favorite bruce lee movie Enter the Dragon damn man i just love this movie 1973 to 2023 50 years ago damn so damn awesome wow dude cool bro 😎

[@jurjyzaidan5540]

Viewing this priceless documentary, it becomes even more apparent that it was Bruce Lee who was the Director of ENTER THE DRAGON while Robert Clouse was the Assistant Director. Further affirmed by comparing it to WAY OF THE DRAGON which Bruce wrote, directed, choreographed, and co-edited.

[@DarkEchoesHorror]

Great documentary that Curse of the dragon 🐉

[@losrajvosa0078]

Imagine what movies will he make if is he still alive !? You knowe that this movie and his last one inspired so many action movies today ,games like street fight or mortal kombat , MMA ,UFC etc. Bruce Lee is the guy who was actualy always learning and he never sad about himself that he is the best. I hated that he wad die so early bcs. Of all of those movies that he could don.

[@Mrandrew7777]

Bruce was made of steel. Such men born once in the century. Just because he didn't take part in karate and kickboxing tournaments doesn't mean, that he wasn't a real fighter and Master. If he entereed any martial arts competitions he should have been one of the champions. Tht's clear. With his light weight and low height he was absolutely powerful and dangerous and has this uknown for many fighters inner strength. Let's be objective and honest. That's why I'm not agree with Norris who said that Bruce could beat makiwara or punching bag. "Enter The Dragon" is a boiling point of his condition and the best movie about mmartial arts and still is. And every other actors was lucky that they appear there

[@angusstewart33]

Of course he was the best no doubts about it, he would of beat any of them

[@jaywalkercrew4446]

Watching it at age 8 🤣 I was amazed how such tiny guy can fight big bully like Bolo. I thought martial arts was kind of hope for tiny boys like me 😁But real life wasn't this easy 😅. My first martial arts teacher was like master Ken. His focus was to humiliate children, make us feel stupid and useless. Great documentary.

[@chrismichaels6928]

Omg - I remember as a kid in high school in the late 80’s reading all these articles in martial arts magazines. There was always some tabloid type stuff talking about how Bruce was gonna kill Bob Wall after the broken glass incident. I’m so glad they addressed that incident in this documentary. 🤦🏻🙄
