The deeper meaning of Bruce Lee

When Bruce Lee died mysteriously in 1973, he was on the cusp of becoming the first international Chinese film star. He was already a star in Hong Kong. His first two feature-length kung fu films, The Big Boss (1971) and Fist of Fury (1972), broke box-office records — becoming the two top-grossing films of all time in Hong Kong, dethroning The Sound of Music after six years at the top. His third film, Way of the Dragon, which was also released in 1972, became the first film to gross more than $5 million.
