A Warrior's Heart

Michelle Yeoh followed up her star turn in YES, MADAM! with the brutal actioner, ROYAL WARRIORS, in 1986. You can tell the producers were now confident in her proven abilities to carry the film and please an audience, as they did not feel the need to add goofy sequences featuring star cameos into the film this time. The film is better for it.

For this cover design I went with an intense orange tone, culled from the fiery Hong Kong poster.

The right hand side of the image is a bit "spoilerific". As it slyly tells the story of Michael Wong's character arc. 

HE'S A COP READY FOR ACTION. 

HE DIES FALLING THRU A GLASS CEILING.

HIS COFFIN GETS HUNG FROM A CRANE.   


The book cover design naturally follows the theme established on the previous film in the series.

As does the rather sparse menu design.



W
e'll take a quick break from the IN THE LINE OF DUTY series, but stay with MICHELLE YEOH to focus on her next film. It's magnificent. That's next time.
