Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })An epic Chinese series from the mid-2000s based on, of course, the life of Bruce Lee, starting with his dancing days as a mouthy teenager, and going ALL the way through his first learning kung fu, rise to stardom, and eventual tragic death. The series is shot to evoke Lee's most famous films, turning his life into one long, LONG, action movie.For American readers, it is now available on Hulu. | |

Anachronism Stew: For a Biopic series meant to be set around between the late 1950s to early 1970s, historical accuracy was clearly not a going priority here; most locations were shot without any set dressing to make them period-appropriate, so many locations, especially the American ones, are seen in their gentrified, early-2000s form rather than in 1960s/70s recreation; it's not difficult to spot car makes from the 1980s and later in the background! The producers, to be fair, made some attempts to recall that era, say by using a 1960s Mercedes-Benz sedan in the Hong Kong scenes, but most of the period styling is done on a shallow level. (Sometimes there are even period pieces from the wrong period—see the profusion of ornate rotary phones that look more suited to the Roaring Twenties than The '60s, for instance. The boxy late-1970s cars seen in Seattle are another example.) Not that this is a bad thing; it's possible that since the story revolves around Bruce Lee himself, as long as the crew telegraphed his actions and personality accurately, and highlighted key events and people in his life without too much revision, the producers would conclude that the show would've fulfilled its function. After all, it's called "The Legend of Bruce Lee", and in Real Life, legends, even those about real people, are often subject to various changes in detail while still retaining the core concept.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

Ambulance Cut: Frequently happens whenever Bruce overexerts himself. The last hospitalisation before he dies is obviously prefigured with one. | |

A God Am I: After Bruce chases off some racketeers, the local store owners start calling him their "god of protection." He doesn't mind. | |
