you need to be grateful to the ones surrounding you anytime. Gratitude is one of the most touching feelings. Thanks for this essay. It let me shocked by his beauty.

Thank you 🙏 for sharing Kathy

Thanks for your support and kind words! Indeed his movies are very emotional and I'm glad you liked the video as well.

Honestly, I was about to cry at the end of your video when you analyse the art of goodbye in his movies. It reminds me of my sweet loves who far away me :)) Thank you for replying my comment

Ang Lee is incredibly good at telling stories, or I say, providing all of the little details and character's emotions. It's like, he can make the fantasy comes true. That's why the recipe work really well with Tiger Dragon, Life of Pi, Lust Caution,... The story were extremely well driven on these. On the other side, It does not always work. Like Hulk, that people come expect for an action-packed movie; or Billy Lynn, that the audience expected about an action-realistic war drama, just like American Sniper. Tsui Hark makes a great example for this. The action scenes in his movie are really entertained to me, but like the opposite side of Ang Lee, his movie's characters aren't so special. Don't get me wrong, Ang Lee could make great action scenes, for sure. All of the fighting scenes in Tiger Dragon are my all time favorite, and I think they do fit well in a Wuxia 武俠 movie. Western-style action-packed movie? not so much. Wish he can just make another wuxia movie, I like his wuxia-romantic style so much though.

Thanks, that's some great analysis! Looks like you are one big fan of Ang Lee!😁

Say, I prefer Zhang & Lee's movies better for entertaining, but if I'm in the mood, Wong Kar-Wai movies are so damn great. Laugh at me, but my most favorite Chinese's film is A Chinese Odyssey (2 parts -1995), I've re-watched it like 5 times already lol.

Agreed!!

Thanks for your support - I'm also planning to do more and lesser known Chinese directors, and maybe even actor/actresses. Stay tuned!

Me too.

I'm glad it's helpful!

You are welcome! I've been busy with school, but I'll try to make new ones about more Asian film artists soon!

So true 🌈🎉, thank you 🙏 for sharing your thoughts @Wei

Just had another Asia director won an Oscar yesterday.

@@donnasun7586 Yup, Chloé Zhao’s the third Asian director to win, the first Chinese director to win, the second woman director to win after Kathryn Bigelow, and the first woman who’s a person of color to win as well.

@@scifinerd17 i think shes Chinese nationality

Hello! I mentioned as a comparison, imagine the level of difficulty there is if a western director is making a movie based on classic Chinese novel. Ang Lee was making movie based on classic English material, he's so amazing.
