Lust, Caution is a film directed by Ang Lee, a Taiwanese film director and producer. He is famous not only in Asia but globally for such works as Sense and Sensibility , Brokeback Mountain , and others. Lee’s films are usually very sensitive, and a spectator expects a new portion of emotions from every new work. Lust, Caution was released in 2007 and the critiques unanimously characterized it as an erotic espionage thriller film. Based on a short story with the same name of the Chinese author Eileen Chang, the film unites love, sexual humiliation, espionage, and deceit. The following paper presents my impressions about the movie and some thoughts about the plot, characters, and the emotions it awakens. Musical background is the thing that catches attention from the opening titles of the film. It is tender and thick at the same time. There are two main locations for the story. It begins in Shanghai of 1942, when it was occupied by the Japanese, and then gets back to Hong Kong of 1938, where the main events took place. A young and naïve student girl, Wong Chia Chi, tried to escape the Second Sino-Japanese War and moved from Shanghai to Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, she studied at Lingnan University and got involved into a patriotic drama club, where she fell in love with Kuang Yu Min, another student of the same university. However, apart from patriotic propaganda, their club develops a plan to assassinate Mr. Yee who was an agent of the government imposed by the Japanese invaders in China. Chia Chi got the most important role in this plan. She was supposed to seduce Mr. Yee and take him to some isolated location where her fellow students could kill him.

The legend allowed her entering the Hong Kong selected circle where she managed to get acquainted with Mrs. Yee and was invited to her home to play Mahjong. It was not difficult for the young girl to attract Mr. Yee and they got into an affair. In my opinion, Chia Chi made a significant sacrifice. She was virgin, and had to play a role of a married women, so she had to practice sex with another student. However, despite the fact that Chia Chi did everything she was expected to do, her fellows failed to assassinate Mr. Yee. I felt that Chia Chi made more efforts to accomplish the plan of their group than the other members. Still, they were just students and did not have any special preparation. After some time, Mr. and Mrs. Yee had to move to Shanghai, and the patriotic students lost an opportunity to achieve their goal. Moreover, Yee’s subordinate revealed the fact that Mr. and Mrs. Mak were not the ones they pretended to be, and the students killed him and hide. Back to Shanghai, Chia Chi met Kuang again. He had another plan to assassinate Mr. Yee and the girl agreed to help again. The second part of the story is more violent and more emotional at the same time. Chia Chi in the role of Mrs. Mak becomes Mr. Yee’s mistress. At that time, he already was the head of secr
