Overview

Considered the first biopic of the legendary Bruce Lee, fact blurs with fiction in this low-budget, loose interpretation of the great martial arts expert's life starring Bruce Li, the most well known Lee impersonator. The film takes a look at Bruce's humble beginnings as a paperboy to his rise in fame as a martial arts phenom, who later gets tangled up in a love affair with actress Betty Ting-Pei.
