For all cast members, the film was an emotional experience.

"I saw him crying, and I said 'what happened?' And he said 'I'm speechless and you guys are great'. So at that moment I cried," Zhang Ziyi said. "For him to cry is not that easy because he knows the character, he knows the story - but somehow it's still touching him, which is good and really makes me happy - making John cry."

Woo, best known for his choreographed action sequences, was active in Hong Kong during the 1970s and 1980s. In the 1990s he moved to Hollywood and teamed up with John Travolta in "Broken Arrow" and "Face/Off."

In 2000, Woo directed Tom Cruise in "Mission: Impossible II," which was the world's biggest earner that year.
