TL;DR: This paper argued that Lee's adaptation of Eileen Chang's fiction Lust, Caution (2007) is a re-creation embedded with subtle and significant cultural politics, which can be seen as an intellectual endeavour to problematise the ideological assumptions of Self and the Other, history, identity and nationalism, to deconstruct the multiple forms of power that have enslaved human beings, women in particular, and to demonstrate his hope for equality, tolerance and coexistence in human society.
