The film

A Better Tomorrow III: Love & Death in Saigon (Chinese: 英雄本色3-夕陽之歌) is a 1989 Hong Kong action drama film directed, co-written, and co-produced by Tsui Hark, the producer behind the first two films in the series. It is a prequel to John Woo's A Better Tomorrow and A Better Tomorrow II. John Woo wrote a screenplay for a third installment, but he never got to direct it due to artistic differences with Tsui during the filming of the second film. Instead, the original screenplay later became Bullet in the Head. The two films have many parallels, most notably, both being set in the Vietnam War. The film stars Chow Yun-fat, who reprises his role of Mark Lee from the first film, Tony Leung Ka-fai and Anita Mui. The story shows how Mark became the character he was in the origin
