Lust, Caution Movie Streaming.
Movie Title: Lust, Caution Lust, Caution is available for streaming or downloading. |
Ang Lee breaks through again with a masterful adaptation of Eileen Chang’s short sage, Lust/Caution (like what he did with Annie Prolux’s similarly brief anecdote, Brokeback Mountain) . While the hype seems to be mostly misplaced on the controversial acrobatics displayed by Tony Leung and Tang Wei in bed, Lee’s storytelling leaves one breathless.

The admire narrative unfolds against the backdrop of 1930’s Japanese-invaded Shanghai where tyranny and suffering were synonymous. Nubile Wang Jia Zhi played by Tang Wei joins the resistance movement and gets herself drawn into the role of a inspect to crumble the traitor, Mr Yee. In between the espionage and wild climatic trysts, both of them unknowingly embroil themselves in esteem and deceit, powerful deeper than they would have liked themselves to.
Tang Wei, as a newcomer to cinema, is impeccable. Her evolution from a wide-eyed country girl to a seductive temptress is enough to gain the hardest of most men, in this case, the distrusting Mr. Yee tumble for her. Wei acts comely noteworthy on instincts and her body language does wonders at seducing the somewhat vulnerable Mr. Yee played by multiple-award winner Tony Leung. Wei breaks down in the memorable scene where she’s talking to the resistance leader on her unyieldingly sacrificial role that is both a torment and insidious attack to her emotions.

As usual, Tony has the penchant for playing murky brooding men and in this instance, an infamous Chinese traitor. He does not act. His presence already commands attention as the cynical no-nonsense minister. The pivotal sex scenes, split into three parts, are not impartial there for visual enhancement. They actually screech the shift in roles between the two throughout their complex relationship. The raw emotions displayed on their faces were enough to convince anyone hard-hearted to consider twice about the essence of like. I must say these are some of the best bed scenes you’ll ever gaze on film.
Of course, the supporting cast of Joan Chen as Mrs Yee and Wong Lee-Hom as Tang Wei’s resistance compatriot, Kuang Yu Min, is every bit fair as spectacular. In the waste, the myth about care for is bittersweet. You’ll also sight how involved the resistance movement, which puts the enemy above self and others, was through Wang Jia Zhi’s eyes. Lust Caution is 157 minutes’ of rewarding see that will linger on in your minds well after the credits roll. (A+)
I saw this movie twice in the theater - very modern for someone as considerable of movies as I am. The first time I went by myself, and the second time I took my husband, who was not initially involved in the tale line (espionage and all) . He also liked it a lot (though he did not have as great of a personal connection as I did with the film) . I was like in a zone for a few days after I saw the movie. It really shook me to the core in a sense. A very remarkable movie in and of itself, it moves me particularly because I am orinigally from China and Eileen Chang was one of my faovrite writers when I was a teenager book worm. Having grown up surrounded by the communisit propaganda, I found it refreshing to see a movie so artfully done to do a theme about admire, sexuality and loyalty. It shows how innocent and ignorant the young revolutionaries could be (something that was obviously omitted from our history lessons) . This is a movie about much human emotions, like all the other movies directed by Ang Lee. I’m also overjoyed to spy Ang Lee sticking to making movies based on agreeable, solid stories, instead of falling into the ‘glitz overriding story’ trap like so many other talented Chinese directors, Zhang Yimou and Cheng Kaige specifically.
Ang Lee said that he made this film for the Chinese audience, but I also read that he was disappointed by the fact that the Chinese media focused predominantly on the raw, sex scenes. I can understand his frustration. I wonder really how the mainland Chinese will embrace such a epic. Eileen Chang was never a Communist writer. In the book and the movie, the revolutionaries were referred to as ‘the people from Chongqing.’ As the Nationalist Party was based in Chongqing at the time (and the Communists in Yan’an), the revoluntionaries in the book were not Communinist members but Nationalists. That sort of contradicts everything we have learned in history lessons about the Communisit being the main heroes fighting against the Japanese and the Nationalists (the Kuomingtang) being wimpy traitors. Because of these reasons, I doubt mainland China will allow the movie to be shown in public.
But it doesn’t mean the Chinese will be denied access to this handsome film, thanks to the illegal DVD pirating industry. My sister-in-law in China has already bought the film (for a dollar) and watched it. Droll thing is she had very similar reaction to it as I did. My brother said she wouldn’t talk to him for a few hours.
I disagree with some critics who called Ang Lee ‘indecisive’ in directing the movie. I assume everything was very deliberately done and Ang Lee was very positive on what he planned to do with the legend. He said that it was one of his approved stories written by Eileen Chang. I teach if you don’t like the yarn (such as some other reviewers), you wouldn’t like the movie. But to me, the record can be interpreted in many ways, and Ang Lee has done a quick-witted job conveying what Eileen Chang wanted her yarn to whisper. The sex scenes (not in the book) are integral to the narrative, as Eileen Chang wrote, “If the path to a man’s heart is through his stomache, then the path to a woman’s heart is through her v….” The movie is certainly not for the faint of heart.
By the map, the soundtrack is radiant. I downloaded it from iTunes. Before I receive the DVD in the mail, the soundtrack will do. (But I wouldn’t want a Chinese film that’s dubbed in English. That’s a crime. I’m buying it from somewhere else.)
During “Honey Don’t” Study for Albert Lee. His solo is blistering though short.
