The Heroic Trio / Executioners

The Heroic Trio / Executioners

Cinema icons Maggie Cheung, Anita Mui, and Michelle Yeoh join forces as a team of blade-throwing, shotgun-toting, kung fu–fighting heroines who battle evildoers in these gloriously unrestrained action joyrides from auteur Johnnie To and action choreographer Ching Siu-tung.

Made at the height of the civil rights movement, Michael Roemer’s landmark of American cinema reveals the toll of systemic racism through its honest portrait of a southern Black railroad worker confronting the daily challenges of discrimination and economic precarity.
