Lust Caution


Lust Caution

I really enjoyed this film a lot. It's directed by Ang Lee who also directed Brokeback Mountain and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. It's a highly erotic, melodramatic, political, espionage, love story starring Tony Leung (Mr. Yee) and Tang Wei (Wang Jiazhi) that takes place in Shanghai, 1942 during the World War II Japanese occupation. It's a long movie with sub titles that moves fairly slowly and I loved every minute of its trance like quality. The sex scenes are beautiful, hot and intensely powerful. I'll probably watch it again just for those.
