I love Tony Leung Chiu Wai (his full name). I find him an extremely effective actor, especially as his turn as the pining cop in Chunking Express (one of my favorite romantic films ever) and the starring role In the Mood for Love and later in 2046 (opening this weekend i the US). He has this everyday dignity about him and his pretty hot for portraying the introspective blokes. So read the article and see 2046.
I like the way Maggie Cheung describes him (i actually seen the actual interview it's taken from, yes i am film geek, i watch the DVD extras):
"Tony's very laid back and quiet, while I'm boom-boom-boom, let's go!" she says. "And he can relax me a little. He's a very sensitive guy, and that's important, especially when you do a lot of improvising. You don't want to have this macho guy who's just there looking great and standing on your foot."
