Editorial
Pitting brotherly bonds against cruel twists of fate, John Woo’s breakthrough launched a swaggering Chow Yun Fat into action stardom. A defining “heroic bloodshed” film, this landmark classic also made sartorial splashes, igniting a fashion craze for dark Ray-Bans and flowing trench coats.
