He survives by a rigid code of honor, blazing fast trigger fingers, and a seemingly endless supply of ammunition. Director John Woo starts the style early, with Jeffrey walking through the night club in slow motion, while the beautiful and sad melody plays in real time in the background. Then come the guns. Jeffrey barges into a back room at the night club and opens fire. The man he has been hired to kill is surrounded by bodyguards, who are not shy about using their weapons.
Bullets fly and blood flows.
In the end, Jeffrey has cleared the room. On his way out, however, there are more bad guys. Jeffrey tries to get Jennie out of the way, but in returning fire, he accidentally fires across her face and blinds her. Jeffrey is wracked by guilt for injuring an innocent, and he befriends Jennie. Jennie, of course, does not know that Jeffrey is the one who blinded her, and the two become close.
