What’s Johnnie To Up To?
You know how Johnnie To said he was taking a break after releasing Sparrow? He didn’t. He’s got two films coming up. I’m nervous about Vengeance starring French actor/singer Johnny Hallyday. I’m excited about Death of a Hostage because of Lau Ching-Wan. (And, yes, that looks like the Oldboy poster which brings another horror to mind. Get it out with this Mad Detective trailer).
