On this day 52 years ago, "Enter the Dragon" had its American premiere. Bruce Lee’s last completed film appearance and his only Hollywood role as a leading man, a movie that solidified his status as a global cultural icon, and also cemented martial arts cinema as part of Western pop culture. A success he never got to see, as he passed just one month before the film’s US opening.
