About this product

Product Information

After BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN and THE HULK, multitalented director Ang Lee returns to Asia with this Mandarin-language erotic drama. LUST, CAUTION pairs celebrated actor Tony Leung (2046) with gifted neophyte Tang Wei. In 1938, China is occupied by the Japanese, but it's not only the country's neighbors who are hated by the loyal Chinese. The nation's resistance also centers on those who willingly collaborate with Japan. Wong Chia Chi (Tang Wei) is part of an acting group, but their sights are set beyond the stage: they want to use their abilities to attack Mr. Yee (Leung), a known traitor. Wong poses as a businessman's wife, and she begins to lure Mr. Yee in, but they're separated before she has her chance. Three years later, they meet again in Shanghai, and a heated affair begins. As Wong grows closer to Mr. Yee, there is doubt that she can aid in her lover's downfall.At times, LUST, CAUTION evokes memories of Wong Kar-Wai's IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE. Both are heat-filled period films that feature the nearly perfect Leung, but while the earlier picture focused on a love that was never consummated, LUST, CAUTION allows its lovers to realize their passion as often--and in as many ways--as one could imagine. But despite the film's NC-17 rating, it never allows the sex to get in the way of the plot or the images. Director of photography Rodrigo Prieto has worked with directors as diverse and impressive as Oliver Stone, Julie Taymor, Spike Lee, and Alejandro GonzΓ‘lez IΓ±Γ‘rritu, and he continues this fine tradition with his second pairing with Lee after BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN. Here Prieto has a head start thanks to beautiful costumes and beautiful people, but this is another film that is simply gorgeous to look at.

    • Not your typical love story

      The heroine of the story is convincing, engaging and really goes through great lengths and pains to make it work. She gets her man in the end, but forgoes the black widow-like relationship in the end in order to spare him. Too bad for her, but she knew.

    • Interesting look at China during WW2

      I was very surprised with the whole movie. It developed the story and characters exceptionally well. The characters were so real, and the story so interesting. You never really knew what was going to happen from one scene to another, it was so real and not predictable. It was a little long, but well worth it. I totally enjoyed it.

    • Better than expected

      This movie is set in Shanghai in 1942, when the Japanese Army had invaded China and occupied the city. It is well-acted and written and seems historically accurate. The characters are well-drawn and the plot, which is to kill a Chinese national, who is an intelligence agent for the Japanese, is very suspenseful and realistic. Also, I was very surprised that there was more sexual activity than I expected in the movie between the agent and a young Chinese girl who was trying to set him up to be assassinated. In fact, the sex scenes are very different from what is usually seen in American sexual scenes. In America, the sex is constrained and inhibited. In this movie, the sexual scenes are very realistic, though not pornographic. They do not show penetration, but real sex, the kind that normal ...

    • Foreign language with English sub-titles....not for me.

      My bad for not realizing that the language spoken was Chinese, with English sub-titles trailed across the bottom of the screen.
