On this day, November 10, 1989, the martial arts drama Best of the Best, directed by Bob Radler, premiered in theaters. Starring Eric Roberts, James Earl Jones, Sally Kirkland, and Phillip Rhee, the film followed a U.S. martial arts team competing against Korea in an international championship. With memorable training scenes and heartfelt moments, Best of the Best developed a loyal fan base despite a modest box office return, earning $1.7 million on a $5 million budget.
