The opening video of "Diet Men and Women" is also very unique. At the beginning of the film, it is closely related to the film title - food, through the neat washing, cutting and frying of the father who is a chef... A series of close-up actions of skilled cooking, edited with montage The techniques of his father's life-long craftsmanship show incisively and vividly. Then, the camera pans, and several beautifully framed photos on the wall fully express Master Zhu's glorious career history and outstanding identity, and integrate skills into the story, which fully reflects the charm and spirit of the film. . However, just to please the audience's visual experience, it can't reflect the "fist and kick" of this montage master. Ang Lee knows exactly what kind of film he wants to make. Is "Food and Drink" just to talk about diet? With the switch of the camera, we see the protagonists appear one by one. The appearance of the old father is completely interpreted by the language of the picture, without any lines and voiceovers, and when the appearance of the other protagonists - the eldest daughter Jiazhen and the second daughter Jiaqian, the identities of the characters are still introduced by the picture language. And the display of character characteristics, it was not until the appearance of the youngest daughter Jia Ning that Ang Lee arranged two lines and noisy background language. So far, Ang Ang explained the main characters of the whole film in only four shots. Such refined and accurate editing techniques, breathtaking montage techniques, and the trickle-down tone of the entire film are exactly the portrayal of the director's "Confucian style".
