Lust, Caution (Chinese: 色，戒; pinyin: Sè, Jiè; Jyutping: Sik1Gaai3) is a 2007 erotic spy film directed by Ang Lee, based on the 1979 novella by Eileen Chang. The story is set during World War II, when a group of Chinese students plot to assassinate a high-ranking official in the puppet government of Japanese-occupied Shanghai by luring him into a honey trap. The film won Lee a second Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival after Brokeback Mountain. It propelled Tang Wei to stardom but also drew controversy for its explicit sex scenes, which resulted in a two-year ban imposed on her by the Chinese government. The film grossed $67 million worldwide over a $16 million budget, making it the highest grossing NC-17 film of all time.
