The epic drama and action of director John Woo carries us away this month as Alex and Jonathan talk about The Killer (1989), Hard Boiled (1992), Face/Off (1997), and Red Cliff (2008). We talk about his pioneering of the "Honorable Bloodshed" genre, his distinct stylistic and thematic trademarks, and his continuing legacy on many modern directors and content creators.Skip to: 8:22 – The Killer 23:18 – Hard Boiled 33:49 – Face/Off 50:35 – Red Cliff Coming Attractions: Wuthering Heights (1939) Rebecca (1940) Richard III (1955) Marathon Man (1976)For more information, visit the blog:https://thefilmlings.wordpress.com/2022/03/23/wooJoin us on Discord for ongoing film discussion:https://discord.gg/MAF6jh59cFSupport the Show!Patreon: https://patreon.com/thefilmlingsKo-fi: https://ko-fi.com/thefilmlings
