Eastern Condors (1987) & Cure (1997)

In an act of self-celebration, Jack and Ben talk about two movies that they adore. We've recently joined the wonderful folk over at The Twin Geeks and wanted to celebrate by flexing our knowledge about areas of Asian Cinema we adore. For Jack, it's the Hong Kong action masterpiece Eastern Condors, and a deep dive into the career of legendary stuntman and director Sammo Hung. For Ben, it's a look at one of the masters of contemporary Japanese Cinema, Kiyoshi Kurosawa, and his haunting 1997 film Cure.
