* A racist JerkJock attempts to intimidate, starts a fight, and constantly insults Bruce in a MisplacedRetribution way (his father being killed in the Korean War), and then gets soundly defeated by Bruce (along with the jerk's friends). However, even though Bruce won, he takes the time give condolences to the other man about the latter's father's death. Bruce had every right not to say anything of comfort to the prejudiced jerk but still did so anyway.

** Even if it was Brandon who reunited Linda and her mother, if Bruce hadn't been so gracious and compassionate as to welcome "Grandma" with open arms despite what she had said to him, it might never have happened. [[FridgeHorror Ever]].

* The film's dedication to Brandon Lee.

* [[http://www.metacafe.com/watch/an-njnl4JtnmhbJmm/dragon_the_bruce_lee_story_1993_reuniting_mother_and_family/ The film's dedication scene]] [[http://www.metacafe.com/watch/an-njnl427nmh7JJ/dragon_the_bruce_lee_story_1993_reuniting_mother_and_family_part_2/ where Linda's mom visits]] — their first time seeing each other since the [[http://www.metacafe.com/watch/an-njnl2mbJ2hbbbu/dragon_the_bruce_lee_story_1993_lindas_mothers_intolerance_part_2/ "yellow babies" scene]] — to see Brandon. Linda is immediately spiteful and bitter — "Did you come to see me? Or did you come to see the yellow baby?" — but as Linda's mom decides she should leave, Bruce calls out: "Brandon! It's Grandma! Grandma's come to see you! Come on in, Grandma! There's someone you ought to meet. Come on." So Linda's mother comes in — though Linda still doesn't look pleased — and holds her grandson. Clearly moved, she coos at him and tells Bruce and Linda how handsome he is — by then, everyone is beaming.
--->'''Mother:''' ''[to Linda, tearing up]'' You did good, sweetheart. You sure did good. Gosh, yes. ''[to Brandon]'' Look at you!\\
'''Bruce:''' ''[to himself]'' Brandon, you're a strong one. Only you could do this.
