Red carpet interview with Ang Lee at the EE Britsh Academy Film Awards in 2013.
DERMOT O'LEARY: Ang Lee how are you? Lovely to meet you. Are you well?
A. Very good.
Q. Excellent. Congratulations firstly, nine nominations here for a book many people, including myself when I read it, I thought that can never be made into a film. You must be so proud.
A. Very proud. Particularly the people who worked with me, the 3,000 of them, for four years. For so long a time we felt it was pretty impossible, we're never gonna see the shore, but here we are. We're very proud.
Q. Absolutely. Do you still get excited about it? You've been to so many award ceremonies and you've won so many awards yourself, do you still get excited about this?
A. Not as much as the first time but I think I enjoy it more because there is less anxiety and there's something good about getting used to it.
Q. What do you have up next?
A. Nothing.
Q. How nice.
A. Yeah, I want to take a rest, you know. They send me all kinds of stuff and I have not chosen one yet.
Q. Have some time off, enjoy it. Get some sun!
Thank you very much, nice talking to you.
