  Simon Yam
Simon Yam is easily the most versatile actor in HK.
- Yam’s most flamboyant role as he plays a vicious homosexual killer to the hilt and seems to be enjoying every moment of it especially when he coos to Chow Yun Fat “You’re the one I admire most.
He is a cop who is as impotent with a gun as with a woman until the sight of Chingmy recharges his batteries of lust.

 Simon Yam   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
While still in high school (at the age of 16) Yam began doing work in commercials and when he was 20, he went on to the TVB (Shaw Bros.) acting school -- where one of his classmates was none other than Chow Yun-Fat.
Even though Yam was gaining popularity, it was not until he appeared in John Woo's 1991 Vietnam epic Bullet in the Head (where he demonstrated some of the English that he picked up by watching TV) that he became a bonafide star.

 Simon Yam @ Filmbug
Simon Yam is the quintessential Hong Kong actor.
Whether as hero or villain, supporting actor or leading man, Yam's colorful screen persona has endured from his early days as a TV star to his eventual position as a major figure in the exciting world of Hong Kong cinema.
Yam's movie debut was in the gangster picture Law Don in 1979, but his first starring film role came later that year in the groundbreaking, New Wave erotic drama House of the Lute.

When Simon Yam first appears in the film Bullet in the Head — looking debonair and dashing in his white suit and stubble — he seizes the film from Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Jacky Cheung and Waise Lee and walks away with it.
In the nineties Simon almost became the man who could not say no to a film offer — and he appeared in loads of films — some of them classics but many of them are totally forgettable.
Simon was in so many films over this period of time that it is impossible to mention more than a few — but some of his best performances were in A Day Without Policeman, Love Among the Triads, Police Confidential, Scarred Memory, Expect the Unexpected and Powerful Four.
