I still think Ang Lee talents and contributions to cinema are minimal at best -- but I'm curious about this new film, if only because it was greeted with boos upon its win. Maybe that means I'll like it.
I'm pretty sure his contributions to cinema as an art-form (and not a political platform) are totally insignificant. He has yet to make a truly great film... and I doubt he ever will.
