Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Bruce Lee's only completed Hollywood film before his death at 32, released just six days after his passing. The tragedy permanently fused the man and the myth.
Lee choreographed every fight himself and insisted on real contact; the infamous 'don't think, feel' scene was improvised after he found the script's dialogue too wooden.
