The Thomas Crown Affair (1968) stars Steve McQueen as a millionaire playboy who steals a priceless work of art and then strikes up a fiery romance with the brilliant insurance investigator played by Faye Dunaway.

</OKung Fu Allstars: Chow Yun-Fat <O
</OBeginning on September 6 at <st1:time w:st="on" Hour="20" Minute="00">8:00pm</st1:time> ET on <st1:stockticker w:st="on">DISH</st1:stockticker> channel 9479<O
</OChow Yun-Fat, one of the <ST1
Asia</ST1lace’s greatest stars, is best known for his roles in Ang Lee’s Academy Award-winning epic Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and the classic action film by John Woo A Better Tomorrow. He started making feature films in 1977, but his big break came in 1982, when director Ann Hui teamed with him in The Story of Woo Viet. The film became a milestone in <ST1Hong Kong'</ST1s cinema history as the first serious film to be both a critical and commercial success. It also established Chow as a movie star of the first magnitude. In 1986, John Woo cast him in A Better Tomorrow, which took in 35 million <ST1lace w:st="on">Hong Kong</ST1lace> dollars and cemented his career as top notch actor. Chow's portrayals of a “killer with a conscience” made him the icon of a genre and inspired a new wave of action filmmaking. From slapstick comedy to action, romance to drama, Chow Yun-Fat is a talent to be reckoned with. Wednesdays throughout the month you can see six of his films on Kung Fu HD beginning with Prisoner on Fire 1 (9/6), followed by Prisoner on Fire 2 (9/6), City of Fire (9/13), Flaming Brothers (9/20), Tiger on Beat (9/27) and Triads: The Inside Story (9/27).<O
