What happens

Bruce Lee's Secret is a 1977 Hong Kong martial arts action film directed by Chan Wa and William Cheung Ki, which is also a pseudo biopic of Bruce Lee. It stars Bruce Li (not to be confused with Lee) as "Bob" Lee, whose life is essentially the same as Lee's and is on two occasions actually referred to as "Bruce". The film has also been released under three other English titles: The Story of the Dragon, Bruce Lee's Deadly Kung Fu and Bruce Lee: Master of Jeet Kune Do. The film was released on DVD by Goodtimes Entertainment in 2001 under the name Bruce Lee: A Dragon's Story. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
