Bruce Lee - Martial Arts Master (DVD)

The 'one-inch punch'
the one finger press up
the Way Of The Intercepting Fist. All are synonymous with Bruce Lee, the instantly recognisable film icon. But how did an unruly kid from the backstreets of Hong Kong achieve such worldwide celebrity and become the first Asian film-star to go global? Made with the co-operation of Bruce's family and friends, plus fellow film stars and martial artists, the film presents a balanced portrait of the legend of Bruce Lee, building a complete picture of a great martial artist and celebrity. As well as covering Bruce's film career, Martial Arts Master focuses on Bruce as a visionary martial artist and includes exclusive insights from Jim Kelly and Bolo Yeung (Enter The Dragon), Jackie Chan (Rush Hour), student and friend James Coburn (Our Man Flint), Bruce's brother Robert Lee plus other family members, friends and co-stars from throughout his career. The methods of Jeet Kune Do, the martial arts philosophy developed by Lee are demonstrated by the select group of students taught by Lee himself. The documentary also affords a rare glimpse of original training equipment designed and used by the master, while the theories behind the 'one-inch punch' are explained.
