When I first knew that Ang Lee was "Sense and Sensibility", I thought to myself that this Chinese NB would go abroad to make movies. Then there is this "Ice Storm", which seems to be highly praised by foreigners, but I didn't like this "cold" film when I was a child, and I was still in the stage of obsessing with muscular men like Schwarzenegger and Stallone.
After that, I happened to watch "The Wedding Banquet" and "Pushing Hands" on TV. I felt that although they were filmed by Chinese people, their tastes have changed so much.
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is less "martial arts" than "Dong Xie Xi Du", but "Brokeback Mountain" feels good, and since then I finally realized that Li An is a foreigner in his bones, and sometimes he is even more foreigner than a foreigner. He is more familiar with Western society than anyone else, not to mention the situation of Chinese people, let alone Yang Dechang, he is worse than the second- and third-tier directors in mainland China. understanding is wrong.
ps is that chubby girl Christina Richie? The one from Sleepy Hollow?
