Features: My films are not pornographic, but they are full of sensuality. Sex is a celebration, a joyful game. I couldn’t help but express it, and I’ve always been passionate about exploring sex and violence as my themes. I could have made them more pornographic, but I’m not interested in that at all. In Basic Instinct, Sharon Stone and Michael Douglas were no longer ordinary actors—they were practically a perfect pair of dancers. In The Lover, the filming of the emotional scenes lasted for two years. The performance of Hong Kong actor Tony Leung was very successful, but I’d rather emphasize that the 17-year-old British girl Jane March, in the film, displayed such sensuality and maturity that surprised me. I also used some tricks to make her scenes more realistic and vivid. For example, I often had her run before filming, so she would appear out of breath; or I would gently rub her cheeks, causing a blush of shyness to rise on her face.
