This weekend, fall down the rabbit hole of the Bruceploitation phenomenon: films that capitalized on Bruce Lee lookalikes after the actor’s death at the height of his stardom. Uncover the controversial history of this uniquely 70s genre with the first documentary on the topic, along with a Q&A with the director. Then see one of the nuttiest examples of the genre, with live DJ accompaniment by DJ 2-Tone of Shaolin Jazz.
