Ang Lee, the master of intellect

The films directed by Ang Lee have one thing in common, that is, they all have a profound and powerful ending. The whole movie from the beginning, the development to the climax serves the ending and makes you feel shocked.

If you try to read an Ang Lee movie and write a review right after watching it, it's really hard. His works often appear to be quiet and peaceful, but they are actually very deep and heavy.

Reason and emotion are two sides of human nature, contradicting and intermingling with each other. Perhaps it is because of Ang Lee's deep understanding of human nature and his ability to subtly interpret that the characters in his films can move you deeply.

Deep and captivating film!
