A Better Tomorrow Trilogy Limited Edition

In 1986, a chance encounter between producer Tsui Hark and director John Woo led both men to collaborate on the revolutionary A Better Tomorrow, an unexpected smash hit that spawned sequels, remakes and legions of imitators, gave birth to a new genre - the "heroic bloodshed" film - and firmly established Woo as a master of action cinema. In the first film, money-launderer Ho (Ti Lung) keeps his criminal endeavours a secret from his younger brother, police officer Kit (Leslie Cheung); but when Ho and his loyal friend Mark (Chow Yun-Fat in an effortlessly cool breakthrough performance) turn the tables on their triad boss, the brothers must put aside their differences to defeat the gang once and for all. Woo and his cast return for the sequel, in which the brothers unite to bring down another gang and save Ho's former mentor from droves of hitmen, presented in its original theatrical cut and the recently unearthed workprint cut. Finally, Tsui's prequel A Better Tomorrow III: Love & Death in Saigon focuses on Mark's past during the final days of the Vietnam War, laying the foundations of the gangster he will become.
