A Better Tomorrow
Two brothers stand on opposite sides of the law – an ambitious police officer and a former gangster with blood on his hands, which he tries to wash off.
Writer-Director John Woo’s breakthrough film made a groundbreaking imprint on Hong Kong action. Here, the bonds of blood and loyalty are tested in a hail of bullets and slow motion. With dark sunglasses, long coats, and hard-boiled confrontations, the film set the tone for a new era.
“Floridly romantic and serenely excessive (men shot a dozen times don’t die, guns never need reloading), it has the bravado of a minor classic.” ~Time Out
