The Hong Kong On Screen Podcast

[HKOS Podcast]
李小龍逝世50周年，香港歷史上第一部與美國主流要電影廠合資攝製的《龍爭虎鬥》在李小龍逝世後的一個月在全美上映，轟動一時，票房在當年排名13 （1973全年排名）。李小龍也是首位華人在荷里活電影裡面擔正第一男主角，更影響了整個功夫電影在世界電影史的發展和地位。
可惜，他生前看不到他的成就和影響，8月13日和8月16日，擁有《龍爭虎鬥》版的華納會舉行全美放映活動，上映的版本為全新4K修復版。請不要錯過可以在大銀幕看到一代巨星李小龍的遺作了。
「The Hong Kong On ScreenPodcast」在這一集特別邀請了香港電影專家Frank Djeng討論了：

1. 為何美國會這麼重視這部電影呢？
2. 西方一致認為《猛龍過江》為李小龍最好的電影，但香港一般認為前三部都比這部好，為什麼呢？
3. 有說李小龍在設計武打時，刻意迎合西方觀眾，究竟什麼是迎合西方品味呢？
4. 有什麼片段被删呢？
5. 《猛龍過江》有什麼特別呢？
6. 李小龍最好的電影是什麼呢？

On the 50th anniversary of Bruce Lee's passing, the first Hong Kong film co-produced with a major American film studio, "Enter the Dragon," was released nationwide in the United States one month after his death, causing a sensation and ranking 13th in the box office for the year in 1973. Bruce Lee became the first Chinese actor to play the lead role in a Hollywood film, significantly influencing the development and status of martial arts films in world cinema history.
Unfortunately, he couldn't witness his achievements and influence during his lifetime. On August 13th and August 16th, Warner Bros. owns the film "Enter the Dragon," which will hold nationwide screenings of the newly restored 4K version. Don't miss the opportunity to see the final work of the legendary Bruce Lee on the big screen.
"The Hong Kong On Screen Podcast" in this episode has invited Hong Kong film expert Frank Djeng to discuss:

1. Why does the United States value this film so much?
2. While Western audiences generally regard "Enter the Dragon" as Bruce Lee's best film, Hong Kong audiences believe the first three films are better. Why is that?
3. It's been said that Bruce Lee intentionally catered to Western audiences when designing martial arts choreography. What exactly constitutes catering to Western tastes?
4. Which scenes were deleted?
5. What makes "Enter the Dragon" special?
6. What is Bruce Lee's best film?
