Inhaltsangabe:

Pocket Essentials is a dynamic series of books that are concise, lively, and easy to read. Packed with facts as well as expert opinions, each book has all the key information you need to know about such popular topics as film, television, cult fiction, history, and more. Aside from being a world class martial artist, Bruce Lee was also a gifted film-maker and accomplished actor, appearing in over a dozen Hong Kong dramas before the age of 13. In 1966 at the age of 25 he appeared in the American-produced Green Hornet television series, which was to be the start of a newly revived acting career; one that would escalate him to international stardom. When his final film Enter The Dragon was completed, Bruce Lee was potentially the highest paid actor in the world. Sadly, he died in 1973 before he could reach the pinnacle of his career. This book thoroughly examines the films of Bruce Lee and explores some of the myths that surround them. It will also serve as a great introduction to Bruce Lee's life, his martial art, his philosophy, and his poetry.
