Probably ''the'' best known ([[Import Filter|to Western audiences]]) Hong Kong director. Drawing inspiration from movie greats like Sergio Leone, Sam Peckinpah, Akira Kurosawa and Shaw Brothers legend Chang Cheh, Woo is powerfully associated with the [[Heroic Bloodshed]] genre and its most visually appealing tropes: [[Guns Akimbo]], the [[Mexican Standoff]], [[Bloodstained Glass Windows]], and [[Disturbed Doves]]. Especially those doves.
