Starting tomorrow, the Film Society of Lincoln Center is showing a complete retrospective of director Ang Lee's work. From his first breakthrough feature, the gay farce The Wedding Banquet, to box office sensation riff on wu xia films, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, from the English countryside of Sense & Sensibility to the heartbreaking sheepherding cowboys in Brokeback Mountain, Lee has explored genres, time periods and the confines of societal expectations.
Lee and his frequent collaborator James Schamus will be on hand to discuss Lee's work after a Monday, August 10 screening of the underrated Ride With the Devil, his Civil War foray. For another of his underrated films, we highly recommend Lust, Caution (showing next Friday and Saturday); the explicit sex scenes earned a lot of attention, but it is beautifully filmed and wonderfully acted.
