SYNOPSIS

The Epic Adventure From The Mind Of Bruce Lee – The Dream Project He Didn’t Live To See!

At the height of his international fame, the legendary Bruce Lee (ENTER THE DRAGON) – along with his friend and student James Coburn (THE GREAT ESCAPE) and Oscar®-winning screenwriter Stirling Silliphant (IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT) – began to write what he believed would be the greatest achievement of his film career. Five years after his mysterious death, Lee’s vision would finally be realized.

David Carradine (KILL BILL), Christopher Lee (THE LORD OF THE RINGS), Jeff Cooper (KNIFE FOR THE LADIES), Roddy McDowall (PLANET OF THE APES) and Eli Wallach (THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY) star in this acclaimed cult hit that brings Lee’s personal philosophy to the screen with a still-potent combination of mysticism, humor and martial arts mayhem. Now CIRCLE OF IRON – also known as THE SILENT FLUTE – is presented in a brand-new restoration, scanned in 4K 16-bit from its original camera negative, with Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos audio, packed with new and archival Extras!
