As for Ang Lee and James Schamus...
I can obviously have no opinion on the quality of "Lust, Caution." In all fairness, I'm not anticipating it that highly. But to release this film with an NC-17 rating attached takes guts, which many filmmakers and even more studios seem to be lacking. So I'll be seeing it the first chance I get.
Only time will tell whether this film will be as good as Ang's earlier Chinese language films like The Wedding Banquet, Eat Drink Man Woman and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. Ang has shown great flair in story telling in his past works and I'm sure this film will win raves when it is released.
