Having finished his initial two-year contract, Lee negotiated a new deal with Golden Harvest. Lee later formed his own company Concord Productions Inc. with Chow. For his third film, Way of the Dragon, he was given complete control of the film’s production as the writer, director, star, and choreographer of the fight scenes. At the 1964 Long Beach Karate Tournament Demonstration, California, Lee had met karate champion Chuck Norris. In Way of the Dragon Lee introduced Norris to moviegoers as his opponent in the final death fight at the Colosseum in Rome, today considered one of Lee’s most legendary fight scenes and one of the most memorable fight scenes in martial arts film history.
During the filming of the movie that produced possibly the best fight scene ever captured on film, entertainment journalist Alex Ben Block interviews Bruce and conducts possibly one of the worst interviews ever captured on tape.
