Life of Pi (2012, dir. Ang Lee): cements Lee as one of the most versatile directors of our generation

220px-Life_of_Pi_2012_PosterTriumphant adaptation of the Man Booker Prize winning novel, Life of Pi works both for kids as a high seas survival adventure (plus Bengal tiger), and for adults, a meditation on the porous boundary between faith and imagination. e.g. Miss 3yo’s verdict: “It was better than Diego!” Certain to attract a host of Oscar noms, including the majors and the technicals (for the 3D effects).

Cements Ang Lee as one of the most versatile directors of our generation, capable of taking on even ‘unfilmable’ challenges, such as the Watchowski’s creditable take on Cloud Atlas earlier this year. I wonder if he’s on the shortlist for SW7-9? 🙂
