Ang Lee grew up in Taiwan, and eventually
moved to the United States to attend film school at
New York University. It was during this time that Lee
met fellow aspiring film student Spike Lee and he helped
with Jones' student film.
Lee went back to Taiwan and worked on some successful
films there, before deciding to make films for mainstream Hollywood.
The first attempt at this was Sense and Sensibility, which did extremely
well in the American film industry
His films afterwards The Ice Storm, Ride
with the Devil and Hulk were diverse and successful
Lee's most recent film Brokeback
Mountain has created a buzz in the movie world
and is leading all other films in Golden Globe nominations,
including best picture. Actors Heath
Ledger and Michelle
Williams were nominated as well.
