LEE IS A SHY GUY
Oscar-winning moviemaker ANG LEE loves ordering Hollywood stars around on set - but struggles with social interaction outside of work.
ANG LEE
The Brokeback Mountain director believes making small talk is far more daunting than dealing with actors on a movie set.
He says, "When I'm off the set, it's hard for me to carry a conversation. That's more difficult for me than making a movie.
"Making a movie, I have plans in my head. Somehow one way or another I manage to roll the camera and get something in the can. But off the set, at the dining table ... it's still awkward for me.
"It's hard for me to feel comfortable socially. I'm always shy, it's just part of my character. It's an incredible burden on my shoulder. But I'm passionate about making movies, so as far as I'm concerned, that's the duty I have."
