It was a
Hong Kong Action Film Theme
Day Jeff
Cuscutis, Kurt and I also watched John Woo's
The Killer.
A disillusioned assassin accepts one last hit in hopes of using his earnings
to restore vision to a singer he accidentally blinded, only to be
double-crossed by his boss.
Plot outline from the Internet Movie DataBase
Guns and carnage a plenty in this film, but the best scene has to be at
Jennie's (the singer) apartment. Two men, guns pointed at each other, carry
on a civil conversation as Jennie serves them tea. The movie is worth it
just for that scene alone.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
