2. Perfect Weapon (Kenpo - me teachy - me likey)
3. Ong Bak

Bad Day at Black Rock

1955, Nominated for 3 Oscars

Spencer Tracy nominated for Best Actor, John Sturgis for Director, Millard Kaufman for Screenplay

Sturgis served with the US Army Signals Corps during World War II, but later transferred to the Air Force. Eventually edited/directed 37 training films and five documentaries. He served in Africa, Italy, Corsica and Britain.

Kaufman Enlisted in the US Marines at the outbreak of World War II, and participated in the Guadalcanal campaign and the landings at Guam and Okinawa. He was awarded a Bronze Star for bravery under fire.

MA (jujitsu) is part of an actual story, about veterans of WW2, racism, justice
and the american west. Tracy was never better. Scene with Ernest Borgnine in a bar
stands as the most effective ma use ever in a real setting. No hyped up special effects.

these are real men who have seen combat and war up close.
It shows.

Cinematography by William Mellor. Stunning.

Available on Netflix.
