One of Simon Yam’s finest performances is in the latest film from Johnnie To, Sparrow. I caught this at the Berlin International Film Festival earlier this year. It was an instantly jarring To film because you realize very early on it’s a G rated To crime film. What it doesn’t have in violence and bullet mayhem it makes for with charm so catchy it resonates like a free flowing and upbeat Coltrane solo.
