Is Ang Lee's English very good? Why does he always make foreign movies? How did he film the fantasy drifting of Youth School? How do actors communicate with foreigners?

Ang Lee's English is really good, which enables him to better understand and express emotions and stories in movies. There may be many reasons for making foreign films, including but not limited to the director's interest in different cultural backgrounds and themes, the participation of actors and production teams and so on.

When filming the film "The Fantasy Drifting of Pi", although there were many foreigners among the actors, Ang Lee communicated with them in the following ways:

1. English communication: Ang Lee's English ability enables him to communicate directly with most actors and production team members. If some actors are not fluent in English, he may use translators or let them use other languages during shooting, and he will also fully communicate and coordinate with them.

2. Translation assistance: If necessary, Ang Lee may hire an interpreter to help him communicate with actors who are not fluent in English.

3. Acting: As a director, Ang Lee's main concern in filming is performance and emotional communication, not specific language. He may use acting skills to guide actors to express their feelings and story content, not just relying on direct language communication.

4. Cooperation of production teams: Film production is a process of teamwork. Besides actors, there are many other staff, such as producers, screenwriters, photographers, editors and so on. They can help Ang Lee make a better film.

In a word, although there are many foreign actors and staff in Ang Lee's films, he successfully communicated and cooperated with them through good English communication skills, translation assistance, performance skills and teamwork, thus completing the production of these films.
