💵 It is not about money. It is about a matter of principle!

👋 Hello guys! If you're a fan of director John Woo or classic Hong Kong action cinema, then you may be interested in joining me for the 40th Anniversary screening of this landmark film, which helped revolutionise action filmmaking around the world.

The film is an emotional tale of brotherhood, loyalty, and redemption set within Hong Kong's Triad underworld. As a former counterfeiter attempts to rebuild his life and reconnect with his police officer brother, he finds himself drawn back into a world of betrayal and revenge.

The film is widely credited with launching the heroic bloodshed subgenre that would define much of John Woo's career.

The Meetup: Since this is an earlier afternoon screening, we'll meet directly at the Prince Charles Cinema Bar at 5:45 pm. The film is at 6:00 pm and I've selected Seat A4 if you'd like to sit on the same row.

After the film, we'll gather outside the screen for our usual Letterboxd review before heading next door to the Victory House Bar for a post-film discussion. You're also welcome to join us there if you missed the first half. Full schedule details, ticket information, and directions can be found below so you won't miss a thing.

Look forward to seeing you there
Stefan
