Episode 147 - Hard Boiled (1992)

A Miami Vice-influenced cross between neo-Noir and over-the-top action, it's the story of two cops—one an alcoholic detective, the other an undercover cop playing hitman—taking down some Hong Kong gangsters. It has gung-fu, babies in peril, and the boxiest, beigest computers the 1990s could deliver.  Starring Chow Yun-fat, Tony Leung, Theresa Mo, Philip Chan, and Anthony Wong. Written by Gordon Chan and Barry Wong. Directed by John Woo.   Apologies to any listeners for the sound, this was recorded while Mary had a bad cold.
