Distribution
In the film Way of the Dragon, Lee was very proud of the result but also aware of the pitfalls of the film, why he did not want to come out in the West, aware of the different tastes of the public not Asian . However after his death Raymond Chow sold the film everywhere. When he came out abroad in the opening credits the logo of Concord Production Inc.[7]Raymond Chow decided to remove leaving only that of the Golden Harvest.[8]
In addition to in this distribution phase (which took place after the death of Bruce Lee) by Raymond Chow , in opening titles and closing credits of the film Way of the dragon and Game of Death is the only producer Raymond Chow 's Golden Harvest.[9] Unlike the film 's Enter the Dragon [10] in the other two it is neither the Concord Production Inc. or Bruce Lee as a producer . The production of Bruce Lee in the two films was then published in many documentaries that even Bruce Lee: A Warrior's Journey.
Even the alternative Chinese film Enter the Dragon differs from the original version produced by Warner Bros resulting as a producer Raymond Chow.[11]
