"Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" was released on this day in 1993. Entertainingly lionized biopic (based on biographies by Linda Lee Caldwell and Robert Clouse) from writer/director Rob Cohen, and screenwriters John Raffo and Edward Khmara. Highlights: Tremendous performances by Jason Scott Lee and Lauren Holly; outstanding fight choreography by John Cheung; emotional and powerful Randy Edelman score. "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story" was a success, grossing nearly 5 times its production budget at the global box office. (The film was rightfully dedicated to Brandon Lee, who died just seven weeks before it was released.) While the film often plays out more like a standard Bruce Lee movie than a traditional biopic, "Dragon" is romantic, exciting, and anchored by two incredible performances. The extraordinary Randy Edelman score is truly a knockout, with the "Bruce and Linda" cue being an emotional powerhouse. Among my ten favorite scores of all time.


That time Norm MacDonald guessed how WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE rigged the 50/50 option, and was proven right mid-show 😅
