S3E3 - Bruce Lee

Considered as the most influential martial artist of all time, Bruce Lee has impacted all along his life the way Asians were represented in American films. Unfortunately the 20th century icon tragically died at the young age of 32 under mysterious circumstances: allergic reaction to an analgesic or cannabis overdose? The experts still disagree today, but for sure too much pressure due to his new fame must have led the artist to stop his career at its peak.
