On October 30, 1974, perhaps the most famous heavyweight championship boxing match of all time took place in Zaire: The Rumble in the Jungle between champion George Foreman and challenger Muhammad Ali. This Oscar-winning documentary showcases Ali’s immense charisma and cultural impact alongside the political and social backdrop of Zaire, featuring performances from the accompanying music festival with James Brown and B.B. King.

The film that made Bruce Lee a legend! At the height of his stardom in Hong Kong, Bruce Lee was called to Hollywood to make the film that defines his legacy. His electrifying fighting style and the deeply personal philosophy that guided it received their fullest expression yet in this thrilling tale of a Shaolin fighter who goes undercover to infiltrate an island presided over by a renegade monk turned diabolical criminal mastermind. Released just days after Lee’s tragic death, Enter the Dragon went on to become his greatest international success and one of the most influential action movies ever made.
