# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Hard Boiled with a live score by The Rookies — FFFA Closing Night at Lido Cinemas
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 15 May, 2025 at 07:00 pm – Thu, 15 May, 2025 at 10:00 pm
- **Event Description**: We’re closing the festival with a screening of the gun-fu masterpiece HARD BOILED screening alongside a live improvisational jazz score by The Rookies. HARD BOILED is masterful action filmmaker John Woo’s last Hong Kong film before he broke into Hollywood, starring Chow Yun-fat and Tony Leung Chiu-wai. 

Starring regular Woo collaborator Chow Yun-fat (The Killer; Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) as tough-as-nails cop ‘Tequila’ Yuen, who loses his partner in a teahouse shoot-out. Determined to nail the guys who killed his partner, Tequila ignores the advice of his boss and continues his own investigation into an illegal arms syndicate, which undercover cop Alan (Tony Leung Chiu-wai, In the Mood for Love) also happens to be working on infiltrating.

Tequila and Alan must team up to take down the Triad gangsters in this operatic tour-de-force action movie classic, which culminates in a heart-stopping single-take gun battle set in a hospital. This is bullet ballet, violence as poetry, a sacred text for action fans.

Energetic and uninhibited Melbourne band The Rookies will perform a live improvisational jazz score to accompany the film, with a drink on arrival to close out the festival.
