Fist Of Fury (1972 Film)

Fist of Fury, also known as The Chinese Connection and The Iron Hand in the United States, is a 1972 Hong Kong martial arts film directed by Lo Wei, starring Bruce Lee in his second major role after The Big Boss (1971). Lee plays Chen Zhen, a student of Huo Yuanjia, who fights to defend the honour of the Chinese in the face of foreign aggression, and to bring to justice those responsible for his master's death.

Fist of Fury is one of Bruce Lee's most influential works, as it is one of the main reasons behind the shift in Hong Kong cinema from swordplay to bare-handed fighting, which initiated the "Golden era of kung fu cinema" in the 1970s.
