"The Ten Sexual Secrets Hinted at in 'Lust, Caution'"

After watching the premiere of the mainland version of "Lust, Caution", my overall feeling is that it's heavy. There's not a single climax in the entire film. The only rare moment of disturbance occurs when Mr. Yi listens to Wang Jiazhi singing "The Wandering Songstress". Ang Lee has used his own way to interpret another level of Eileen Chang's "Lust, Caution", and also made "Lust, Caution" more admired. The movie, just like the novel, without explicit sexual scenes, alludes to ten secret messages of love-making.
