Join visionary director John Woo for his latest epic adventure film. A massive hit in Asia and the most expensive Chinese film ever made, RED CLIFF reunites legendary filmmaker John Woo and international superstar Tony Leung for the first time since the 1992 classic HARD BOILED. A breathtaking war epic, RED CLIFF brings to the screen the legendary tale of the Battle of Red Cliff that took place in 208 AD and was immortalized in the classic Chinese novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms. This visual masterpiece will be followed by a Q&A session with Woo.
