New episode alert!!!! ‘Dragon: the Bruce Lee Story’- Biopic, Historical Fiction or Bruceploitation? This week, Gavin and I discuss the 1993 Rob Cohen directed film starring Jason Scott Lee (no relation) and Lauren Holly, which tries to tackle the monumental task of telling Bruce Lee’s story. Many had tried before it, many have tried since… and almost all have failed. Although ‘Dragon’ is about as accurate of a retelling of someone’s life as ‘Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter’, and saying it plays fast and loose with the facts would be an understatement, this movie most definitely has a hell of a lot going for it: fantastic performances, beautiful cinematography, costumes and set design, as well as maybe one of the most underrated film scores of all time. There is also plenty of top notch action on display, although the actual martial arts utilized on screen is definitely a hot button topic amongst Bruce Lee fans and JKD practitioners. We do our best to handle all of these different subject matters and give our honest take on a film I believe everyone should check out!
