Also, the choice of actors is simply amazing.

The poetry and philosophy of the East, the plot and ethics of the West,
many people stir up this kind of aesthetics to be nondescript,
but Ang Lee is always perfectly balanced,
even a bit like the argument about skirts, the longer it is, the longer it is.
Anything less is shorter and so on.
The tension between them, silent and terrifying, is the most fascinating.
Just like pulling a piece of rubber, when the outward strength of both hands
balances the contraction of the rubber itself, both sides are critical, and both sides stop, but the invisible
force is still there, and it is huge.
Ang Lee will never break out and tear this piece of rubber,
which is his most unique as a master and others will never be able to imitate.
