John Woos mest ikoniska och explosiva film Hard Boiled levererar hårdkokt gangsteraction där varje eldstrid är en uppvisning i precision och vansinne. Kulor flyger och kroppar faller när ingen längre vet vem som går att lita på.<br/><br/>In the 80s and 90s, director John Woo would cement his reputation as a master of action films with classics like A Better Tomorrow, The Killer and Bullet in the Head. This would culminate in 1992 with the release of his masterpiece Hard Boiled, the hyperkinetic, hyperviolent exemplar of the Heroic Bloodshed genre.<br/><br/>Iconic actor Chow Yun-Fat (City on Fire) stars as Tequila, a gung-ho cop working to bring down Johnny Wong (Anthony Wong, Infernal Affairs), the villainous triad boss who maintains a stranglehold on Hong Kong's illegal gun trade. Johnny attempts to recruit Ah-Long (Tony Leung, Bullet in the Head), an assassin from a rival syndicate, just as the insubordinate Tequila gets taken off the case. Taking justice into his own hands, Tequila tracks Ah-Long down and uncovers an intricate web of deception that threatens to boil over into all-out war.<br/><br/>A fiery coalescence of electrifying performances, elaborate narrative and operatic gunfights, Hard Boiled has rightly been exalted as the undisputed champion of Hong Kong action films, ready to unleash a hail of bullets anew in this stunning restoration exploding with extras.<br/><br/>4K ULTRA HD BLU-RAY LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS<br/>Reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Tony Stella <br/>Double-sided foldout poster featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Tony Stella <br/>Collectors' booklet featuring new writing on the film by Priscilla Page and archival writing and an interview with John Woo by Stéphane Moïssakis <br/>Six postcard-sized artcards<br/><br/>DISC ONE - FEATURE AND EXTRAS (4K ULTRA HD BLU-RAY)<br/>4K Ultra HD (2160p) Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible) <br/>Original lossless Cantonese mono and Dolby Atmos audio, and English mono audio <br/>Optional newly translated English subtitles for the Cantonese soundtracks and optional English for the deaf and hard of hearing subtitles for the English soundtrack <br/>Brand new audio commentary with director John Woo and film journalist Drew Taylor <br/>Brand new audio commentary with film historian Frank Djeng <br/>Archival audio commentary with John Woo and producer Terence Chang <br/>Archival audio commentary with John Woo, Terence Chang, film critic Dave Kehr and filmmaker Roger Avary <br/>Deleted and extended scenes <br/>Original trailers <br/>Image gallery<br/><br/>DISC TWO - EXTRAS (BLU-RAY)<br/>Violent Night, a brand new interview with John Woo <br/>Boiling Over, a brand new interview with actor Anthony Wong <br/>No Room for Failure, a brand new interview with Terence Chang <br/>Hard To Resist, a brand new interview with screenwriter Gordon Chan <br/>Boiled to Perfection, a brand new interview with screenwriter Chan Hing-Ka <br/>Body Count Blues, a brand new interview with composer Michael Gibbs <br/>Hong Kong Confidential: Inside Hard Boiled, a brand new interview with author and Hong Kong cinema expert Grady Hendrix <br/>Gun-Fu Fever, a brand new interview with author Leon Hunt <br/>Chewing the Fat, a brand new interview with academic Lin Feng <br/>American Cinematheque 2025 Q&A with John Woo <br/>The Test of Time, an archival documentary featuring interviews with John Woo, Terence Chang, editor David Wu and actor/stunt coordinator Philip Kwok<br/>Archival interviews with actors Chow Yun-Fat and Tony Leung<br/><br/><i>Typ: Blu-ray / 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray (Limited Edition)</i>

NY BOX MED DIGITALT RENOVERADE MÄSTERVERK AV AKIRA KUROSAWA<br/><br/>Efter succén med vår första Kurosawa-box, som fokuserade på mästerregissörens samurajepos, kommer snart box nr två. Även denna packad med idel mästerverk i digitalt renoverat skick.<br/><br/>RAN (1985). I 1500-talets Japan är Hidetora Ichimonji en av de mäktigaste klanledarna. En position han nått genom plundringar och mord. Nu är han gammal och lämnar över makten till sina söner Taro, Jiro och Sabura. Därmed hoppas han få slut på våldet. Men istället blir det precis tvärtom... Kurosawas sista riktigt storslagna film, byggd på Shakespeares "Kung Lear", som 1985 var den överlägset dyraste filmen i Japans historia. Vinnare av en Oscar (Bästa kostymer) och nominerad till ytterligare tre (regi, foto, scenografi).<br/><br/>KAGEMUSHA - SPÖKGENERALEN (1980). Under 1570-talet kämpar de japanska klanerna om herraväldet. Länsherren Shingen Takeda anställer en tjuv som sin dubbelgångare att användas för att vilseleda fienden. När Shingen dör får tjuven ta hans plats för att fienden fortfarande ska tro att han är i livet. Vasallerna har förordnat att han ska vara i tjänst under tre år framåt, men dubbelgångaren har helt andra planer... Producerad av de stora Kurosawa-fansen Francis Ford Coppola och George Lucas. Belönad med Guldpalmen i Cannes och nominerad till två Oscar (Bästa utländska film och Bästa scenografi).<br/><br/>DODES'KA-DEN (1970). Kurosawas kanske mest udda film, vilken utspelas i Tokyos slumkvarter och bland annat följer en ung man med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning som älskar spårvagnar och ständigt härmar deras ljud (som, enligt honom, låter "Dodes'ka-den"). Oscarnominerad för Bästa utländska film.<br/><br/>RÖDSKÄGG (1965). Under 1820-talet kommer en ung medicinare med dåligt humör till en landsortsstad för att börja sin praktik. Under stigande ilska inser han att han inte alls ska syssla med finare privatpraktik, utan istället är placerad på ett allmänt sjukhus för att ta hand om fattiga patienter. Kurosawas sista film med Toshiro Mifune. Efter ständiga gräl beslöt de att gå skilda vägar.<br/><br/>HIMMEL OCH HELVETE (1963). Toshiro Mifune i stark filmatisering av Ed McBain-deckaren "Hotet" från 1959. Den förmögne affärsmanen Kingo Gondo får veta att hans son har blivit kidnappad och gör sig redo att betala lösensumman. Men snart visar det sig att kidnapparna tagit fel barn. De har råkat ta chaufförens son. Kommer Gondo ändå att betala lösensumman?<br/><br/>IKIRU - ATT LEVA (1952). En åldrande byråkrat försöker finna en mening med livet efter att han fått reda på att han drabbats av obotlig cancer. En av Kurosawas mest älskade filmer. Belönad med Juryns specialpris i Berlin.
