Personality assessment
Ang Lee's success lies in his proper handling of the differences and opposites between Chinese and Western cultures in his films, and his adoption of narrative strategies that not only meet the requirements of China's traditional culture, but also meet the aesthetic psychology of western audiences.
His films not only have an understanding and reflection on China's traditional culture, but also have an understanding of the western value system. The three films of his early work "Father Trilogy" show and expound the conflict and integration of two different cultural concepts from different angles step by step, and the attribution of China traditional culture in this conflict.
In his later works, Ang Lee continued his thinking about Chinese and western culture and art, tried his best to combine the connotation of Chinese and western culture and its aesthetic expression perfectly, and applied it to film shooting brilliantly, forming his unique creative style.
