For a long time, I have said that Ang Lee is a director who understands the East from the West and a director who understands the West from the East.
This time, I can't remember the first time I watched it, and I saw something new. I don't know how other people's movie reviews are written, so please tell me a little bit about your own feelings.
1. I have always wondered whether the relationship between the three characters portrayed by Ang Lee alluded to the relationship between the husband's wife and his concubine, which was a feudal ethics in ancient times. Under the restraint of "marriage", Li Mubai has a love for his concubine Yu Jiaolong, but this love may be a superficial heartbeat, but it cannot shake the ethical and moral love for his wife.
2. Xiaohu keeps saying "she is mine, she is mine" is it not a kind of control, the love between him and Yu Jiaolong is more of a physical love of fish and water, originally Yu Jiaolong wanted to go I got the comb back, but left it with Xiaohu before jumping off the cliff. On the other hand, Li Mubai's "apprenticeship" is also a kind of control, and it is the same as returning to Xinjiang when bound to the shackles of ethics. Li Mubai himself said the words of his master: if he holds it tightly, he can't grasp anything, but he can't control himself.
3. I don't think many people mention Yu Jiaolong's feelings for Li Mubai. What he said to Li Mubai was more of a fear of the blue-eyed fox. Whether it's her eyes, her movements, or her ability to react, she's all restrained in front of Li, and only in front of Li she doesn't have a strong hostility.
4. For a good actor, we can explore the intention of the director and screenwriter through his performance (body, language, demeanor).
5. Good directors are descriptive, non-evaluative. I'm curious about Ang Lee's reaction after reading the audience's interpretation of Lust, Caution and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Reminds me of "Once Upon a Time in America".
6. The director's choice of sexual performance There are physical collisions in erotic movies, scenes of borrowing rain and flowers, and fighting in bamboo forests. I can't say which is better.
