There are several thousand years worth of tragic Chinese stories, but this one is more accessible to Western audiences as it is set in a more familiar time, if not place.
Furthermore, Ang Lee is a very polished director and has created a rich, atmospheric film. He's proven himself as a worthy as any director we have today.
