Cheng Chao-on (Lee) moves to Thailand to work at a factory alongside his uncle and cousins. However, a ruthless crime boss (Han Ying-chieh) and his gang are using the factory to smuggle dope, and whoever stumbles upon this unfortunate secret promptly meets a grisly end. When some of Cheng's friends and cousins disappear, he is forced to set aside the vow of pacifism he made to his mother and unleash his fists of fury to bring those responsible to bloody justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDirected by Lo Wei, The Big Boss forever changed the landscape of Hong Kong action cinema, signalling kung fu's dominance over the genre for years to come. Lee's breakthrough is presented in a 4K restoration with hours of bonus features, including the restored 110 Mandarin Cut of the film.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eEdition Contents\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIllustrated collector's booklet featuring writing on the film by Walter Chaw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Tony Stella\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFormat\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4K (2160p) Ultra HD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible) of the 99-minute 1983 version of The Big Boss, restored by Arrow Films from the original negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal restored Mandarin, English and Cantonese mono audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo English mono options, the standard mix and a Japanese mix with alternate score\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnglish subtitles, plus optional subtitles for the deaf and hard-of-hearing for the English dubs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRun Time 99 \/ 100 \/ 100 \/ 110 mins approx\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertificate 18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAspect Ratio 2:35.1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubtitle Languages English, English SDH\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTheatrical Release Year 1971\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMain Language Mandarin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Discs 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion Free\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecial Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4K (2160p) Ultra HD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible) of the 99-minute 1983 version of The Big Boss, restored by Arrow Films from the original negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal restored Mandarin, English and Cantonese mono audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo English mono options, the standard mix and a Japanese mix with alternate score\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnglish subtitles, plus optional subtitles for the deaf and hard-of-hearing for the English dubs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo feature commentaries, one by David Desser and one by Brandon Bentley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo alternate versions with lossless mono audio: the English Export Cut, featuring a rare alternate English dub track (some scenes in Mandarin); and the 100-min US Theatrical Cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReturn to Thailand, a documentary produced and presented by Matt Routledge exploring the original filming locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecently uncovered deleted and extended scenes, with optional commentary by Bentley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Not-Quite-Biggest Boss, a video essay by Bentley investigating the scenes still lost, such as the 'saw-in-the-head' scene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchive interviews with co-star Lau Wing and stuntman Tung Wai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBruce Lee Vs.
