LONDON , England ( CNN ) -- Masks beneath masks , the click-clack of Mahjong tiles and the sheen of silk cheongsams : Taiwanese director Ang Lee ( `` Crouching Tiger , Hidden Dragon '' ; `` Brokeback Mountain '' ) brings an intoxicating tale of lies , deceit and corruption to the screen with his latest film , `` Lust , Caution '' . Ang Lee 's latest film , ` ` Lust , Caution '' is a film - noir spy tale set in Shanghai . ` ` Love , Caution '' is the follow - up to 2005 's Oscar - winning ` ` Brokeback Mountain '' Asian film icon Tony Chan Chiu - Wai and newcomer Wei Tang star . Too perfect in parts , with explicit sex scenes , the film is still a killer thriller .
