A Better Tomorrow | Original Trailer | John Woo, 1986

Director John Woo and producer Tsui Hark changed the Hong Kong film industry forever when they unleashed A Better Tomorrow, a thrilling noir update served with lashings of kinetic action that blew audiences’ minds at home and abroad. Iconic Shaw Brothers actor Ti Lung stars as Ho, a money-launderer for the triads who struggles to keep his criminal activities a secret from his younger brother, police cadet Kit (Leslie Cheung, A Chinese Ghost Story). When Kit finds out after Ho and his loyal friend Mark (Chow Yun-Fat in his breakthrough role) are double-crossed and arrested, he casts him out of his life. Ho vows to go straight, desperate to regain his brother’s love and trust. But when their ruthless former gang put a target on Kit’s back, Ho and Mark must work together to turn the tables on them and finally take them down. At once a landmark of 1980s Hong Kong cinema and the harbinger of John Woo’s future star-studded career, A Better Tomorrow’s electrifying action sequences, razor-sharp script and complex interpersonal drama have cemented it as a timeless classic for genre film fans and beyond.   / arrowvideo     / arrowvideo     / arrowfilmsvideo     / arrow_video   #arrowvideo #boutiquebluray #johwoo #abettertomorrow #goldenprincess #4kuhd #d英雄本色 #Yīngxióngběnsè #hongkongcinema #chowyunfat #lesliecheung #tsuihark
