Bruce Lee-The way of dragon 猛龙过江 P2



Way of the Dragon was the first Hong Kong film to be partially shot on location on a Western continent.

The Italian gangsters in the film speak English, not Italian, because all of their scenes were shot in Hong Kong.

Only Bruce Lee and Nora Miao appear in the outdoor sequence showing Roman monuments.

Jackie Chan's Rumble
in the Bronx is said to be a tribute to Way of the Dragon. The films have a similar plot: a young man travels to a foreign country to help out a troubled shop.

While it went largely unnoticed by Western viewers, the soup scene proved memorable to Chinese audiences. Campbell Soup had become a popular brand in Hong Kong when Way of the Dragon was first released.
