Path of The Dragon provides a very intelligent examination of how Bruce Lee and the martial arts, in general, crossed cultural and racial barriers for positive impact.
Thoughtfully narrated by the actor's daughter Shannon Lee, the documentary is highlighted by interviews of current luminaries in movies and martial arts such as Richard Norton and Jackie Chan.
Commentaries on Lee are also provided by his 'Enter the Dragon' co-star John Saxon, James Coburn and George Lazenby, a former James Bond. The historical origins of the martial arts, with vintage footage from Asian locations, are examined to lay the foundation for the bases of Lee's global success.
Students and film fans alike will enjoy this remarkable hour that is, in equal parts, an enjoyable history lesson and a retrospective on the importance of Bruce Lee to film and to international popular culture.
