Ang Lee
The Cross-Cultural Cowboy of Film
By ZIYI ZHANG
Posted Sunday, Apr. 30, 2006
Because of Ang Lee, so many more people know about Chinese filmmaking and
about Chinese films. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, a Chinese-language
movie, mesmerized Western audiences in 2000. And last year, with Brokeback
Mountain, yet another unimaginable success, both with critics and audiences,
he captivated the entire world and reached the pinnacle of moviemaking.
Lee's ability to be such a huge cross-cultural influence is, I think, unique.
His Taiwanese upbringing, which kept him deeply rooted in the Chinese way of
being and living, combined with his well-informed understanding of Western
mores and filmmaking techniques have allowed him to speak to those two worlds
in a way no other director has.
It's as if when Lee, 51, makes a film, he is able to erase the cultural lines
and have its profundity understood at a universal level. He creates
characters that draw in an audience no matter what language they speak. His
insight into the human heart crosses all boundaries.
I know he is also making a huge influence in the lives of younger filmmakers
and actors. I, for one, will be forever indebted to him for casting me in
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. When I went to audition for him, I had made
just one film (The Road Home) and had never done any martial arts. I was 20
and didn't feel up to any of it. He still gave me that chance. Why? He saw
what I could be capable of and was willing to let me have a go at it. How
great is he?
I love that he never limits himself either. He's a good role model for all of
us. Director Ang Lee lives in the future.
