Alex Proyas' 1994 movie perfectly encapsulated a very specific moment in time
Alex Proyas ’ 1994 movie The Crow is arguably most remembered as the film in which Brandon Lee —son of legendary martial arts movie star Bruce Lee —was accidentally shot on set during filming, dying hours later in a hospital at age 28. But The Crow is so much more than that, as hardcore fans of both the movie and the 1989 James O’Barr comic book series it was based on know.
We wanted to revolt against the establishment—the rich, the powerful, the greedy. We may not have invented angst, but we sure as hell mastered it. Everything about The Crow—from its tone to its triple platinum soundtrack to the timing of its release—encapsulated the collective angst we were feeling by 1994.
