Michael Cimino's ultra-violent YEAR OF THE DRAGON boasts an Oliver Stone screenplay that mixes crime and action with gang warfare, and stars Mickey Rourke as Stanley White, a racist cop into whose lap the responsibility of policing Chinatown falls. Joey Tai (John Lone) is his nemesis, the kingpin of the Chinese Mafia in New York City and the film revolves around the lengths to which each character will go in order to preserve his side of the street.
