OverviewBruce Lee was the most influential martial artist of the last century. Way beyond his time in terms of his physical training, Bruce Lee went against the grain of traditional martial arts to develop his own unique martial art, Jeet Kune Do. However, his art was much more than physical fighting, it was a philosophical way of life. Kenny thoroughly examines the films of Bruce Lee and explores some of the myths that surround them. This is also a great introduction to Bruce Lee's life, his martial art, his philosophy and his poetry.
