TV shows like Warrior have shown that martial arts stories still carry weight and interest among television and movie fans. This is mainly due to how well martial arts can be used to tell a story while delivering impressive and exciting fight scenes. But shows like Warrior wouldn’t have been possible without Bruce Lee, who developed a series that balanced drama and action. But while Warrior was a modern take on a classic Lee narrative, it wasn’t the first time the martial artist and actor helped bring to life an action-drama.One of Lee’s most impressive was 1972’s Fist of Fury, which was released in the US under the title The Chinese Connection to take advantage of the success of William Friedkin’s The French Connection. The movie featured a young martial arts student named Chen Zhen, who learned that his master was killed by a rival Japanese dojo. This led to a revenge mission that ultimately ended with Chen’s sacrifice for a larger message. But all of this was predicated on one of Lee’s most impressive fight sequences. After the death of Chen’s master, he and his dojo dealt with prejudice from the Japanese dojo, being that they were Chinese. This only fueled the hot-headed nature of Chen, who was already angered at the treatment of his people. And while trying to return a derogatory sign to the school, a massive battle broke out where he took on every student in the dojo.RELATED: Bruce Lee Anime Series House of Lee Drops First Teaser
