Short Kung Fu Movie - Wild Dragon

During the 70's the dangerous weapon on the streets was Karate or Kung FU, thanks to legends like Bruce Lee on the big screen and David Carradine on the small one. Kids on the street were tempted to use their legs and fists to settle a battle. But in most cases, their un-trained fighting skills in martial arts could do as much harm as a knife or gun. So clubs all over the country cashed in on the martial arts craze, this film shows what could happen between those who trained and those who didn't. This is one of the earliest surviving films (1972) from former Blind Date, Top Gear, Big Breakfast, One Show, Wheeler Dealer TV Producer/Director Jamie Langton. It was shown at clubs and eventually featured on London Weekend Television's 'London Weekend Show' presented by Janet Street Porter in 1975.
