14.If love is understanding,how to show your understanding?Here let's have a look at Ang Lee and his wife's story.At the 85th Academy Awards,Ang Lee won his second Academy Award for Best Director with Life of Pi,first for Brokeback Mountain.He is the first person of Asian descent(血统) to win an Oscar,Golden Globe and BAFTA(British Academy of Film and Television Arts) for Best Director,and the only director to win two Best Film Awards at the Berlin International Film Festival.
However,Lee's career didn't go smoothly at first.After graduation,Lee got few opportunities in his dream field,and remained unemployed for six years.During this time,he was a full-time house-husband,while his wife Jane Lin,a biologist,was the sole breadwinner for the family of four.This arrangement put enormous pressure on the couple,but with Lin's support and understanding,Lee did not abandon his career in film but continued to create new ideas from movies and performances.He also wrote several screenplays during this time.
In 1990,Lee produced two screenplays,Pushing Hands and The Wedding Banquet,and they came in first and second respectively.The winning screenplays brought Lee to the attention of Li-Kong Hsu,who had a strong interest in Lee's unique style and freshness.Hsu,a first-time producer,invited Lee to direct Pushing Hands,debuted(首映) in 1991.From then on,he began his splendid career.
