Lust, Caution
Graphic Content: No One Under 18 Admitted
Director Ang Lee (The Wedding Banquet, Eat Drink Man Woman, The Ice Storm, Brokeback Mountain) is no stranger to controversy, so it's no surprise to see him break conventions that go beyond an "R" rating and tackle a World War II novella that is equal parts espionage thriller and erotic drama. What is surprising is how much the rating issue, in our day and age, still castrates a film's ability to get wide exhibition.
