任達華1955年生於香港,初為模特兒,之後參與演出電視廣播有限公司的單元劇《CID》(1976)而為人認識,並陸續參演《家變》(1977)、《千王之王》(1980)、《新紮師兄續集》(1985)等電視劇,拍畢《還我本色》(1989)後轉投亞洲電視。這段時間他亦參演電影,包括《入冊》(1977)、《慾火焚琴》(1980)、《再見媽咪》(1986)等。八十年代末他開始主力演出電影,當時黑幫片與警匪片盛行,他在《龍之爭霸》(1989)、《再戰江湖》(1990)等片中飾演反派黑幫頭目;而在吳宇森的《喋血街頭》(1990)中飾演瀟灑多情的越南殺手阿樂,是他較突破性的演出。九十年代初,他以其俊朗外貌主演以舞男為題材的《香港舞男》(1990)、《雞鴨戀》(1991)等片,賣座不俗。此後他多任主角,包括《愛在黑社會的日子》(1993)、《醉生夢死之灣仔之虎》(1994)、《我是一個賊》(1995)、《九紋龍的謊言》(1995)等,類型有別,但主要形象仍以殺人狂、黑道、劫匪等犯罪角色為主。九十年代後期,他開始減少拍攝電影數量,重視演出質素,這時期參演多部銀河映像出品、杜琪峯導演的電影,其中在《PTU》(2003)飾演沉穩而辣手的警長,《黑社會》(2005)中扮演表面謙和、實質兇殘毒辣的黑社會頭目,《文雀》(2008)中飾演氣質優雅、充滿懷舊況味的扒手頭領,演出均好成功。他的演出同時突破過去的窠臼,變得多元,包括在彭浩翔導演的《出埃及記》(2007)中飾演遇到怪事連篇的警察,以及在許鞍華導演的《天水圍的夜與霧》(2009)中扮演過度壓抑而趨向失常的莽漢,更憑《歲月神偷》(2010)獲第29屆香港電影金像獎最佳男主角。2013年,他首度聯合執導鬼片《迷離夜》其中一段〈贓物〉。其後的重要演出還有陳果的《那夜凌晨,我坐上了旺角開往大埔的紅VAN》(2014)、台灣導演崔震東的《樓下的房客》(2016)、王晶與關智耀合導的《追龍II:賊王》(2019)等。

Simon Yam was born in Hong Kong in 1955. First a model, he came to notice in Television Broadcasts Limited's single-episode drama CID (1976) and went on to appear in television series such as A House Is Not a Home (1977), The King of Gamblers (1980) and Police Cadet II (1985), moving to Asia Television after finishing Blood of Good and Evil (1989). During this period he also took film roles including The Discharged (1977), The Beasts (1980) and Goodbye Mom (1986). From the late 1980s he concentrated on film, and amid the vogue for gangster and crime pictures he played villainous triad bosses in films such as Burning Ambition (1989) and The Return of the God of Gamblers period titles, while his role as the dashing Vietnamese assassin in John Woo's Bullet in the Head (1990) was a breakthrough. In the early 1990s his looks made him a natural for the gigolo dramas Hong Kong Gigolo (1990) and Gigolo and Whore (1991), which did well at the box office. He then took numerous leads, including in Days of Being Dumb (1993) and Wan Chai Tigers (1994), still mostly as killers, gangsters and robbers. From the late 1990s he reduced his output to focus on quality, working repeatedly for Johnnie To's Milkyway Image: the steady but ruthless sergeant in PTU (2003), the outwardly modest yet savage triad chief in Election (2005), and the elegant, nostalgic pickpocket leader in Sparrow (2008). His range widened further with a policeman encountering strange events in Pang Ho-cheung's Exodus (2007) and an over-repressed man turning violent in Ann Hui's Night and Fog (2009), and he won Best Actor at the 29th Hong Kong Film Awards for Echoes of the Rainbow (2010). In 2013 he co-directed one segment of the horror portmanteau Tales from the Dark Part 1. Later notable roles include Fruit Chan's The Midnight After (2014), the Taiwanese director Tsui Chen-tung's The Tenants Downstairs (2016) and Chasing the Dragon II (2019).

English

Starting from television and modelling, Simon Yam built his early reputation on villainous gangster and crime roles before moving into the cooler characters of Milkyway Image, winning a Hong Kong Film Award for Best Actor with Echoes of the Rainbow. Able to move between commercial hits and auteur cinema, he is a rare performer who has kept reinventing himself over decades.
