I also believe Bruce Li is the only Bruce Lee impersonator to receive any semblance of respect from the fans. Mainly due to his honesty in admitting he never actually intended to be a little dragon imitator but was often expected to perform like one by unscrupulous Hong Kong film producers.

It was nice to see an older Li saying his piece when interviewed as part of the vintage HK film documentaries Cinema Of Vengeance and Top Fighter from the early to mid '90s.
