THE KILLER - JOHN WOO

Directed by John Woo
Hong Kong, 1989, 1h 51min, DCP, In Cantonese, Mandarin, and Japanese with English subtitles.

“Arguably the ultimate expression of Woo’s style.”
—Vulture

“The most dementedly elegiac thriller you’ve ever seen, distilling a lifetime’s enthusiasm for American and French film noir.”
—Time Out

“The violence in THE KILLER is virtually nonstop … this is a rush of a movie.”
—The Washington Post

John Woo’s masterpiece, inspired by Melville’s LE SAMOURAÏ, stars Chow Yun-fat as a disillusioned mob hitman who is responsible for the blinding of a nightclub singer. When his plan to make things right goes awry, he teams up with an obsessed cop to clean things up. Operatic in its scope, unapologetic in its melodramatic bromance, this is one of the top five or six action films ever made. New 4K restoration.
