Taiwanese Exult As Ang Lee Wins Oscar

Residents of this leaf-shaped island of 23 million people exulted Monday Sunday night in Hollywood as native son Ang Lee won the Oscar in the best-director category for his gay romance "Brokeback Mountain."



Expectations had been high in the run-up to the ceremony a half a world away, with office workers taking time off to watch live television broadcasts, and newspapers emblazoning Lee's photograph across their front pages.



Lee's brother, Lee Kang, and mother, Yang Si-chuang, 81, watched the ceremony from Lee Kang's small TV production and film distribution office in Taipei, together with dozens of local and international media.



When the director's award was announced, Lee Kang sprang up and pumped his fist into the air and Yang applauded enthusiastically.
"It's great to win the award," Yang said. "Mom's really happy. I hope he pays attention to his health."



Yang expressed regret that her husband, Lee Sheng, who died in 2004, was not alive to see his son's triumph. Taiwan's ERA Cable News station said Lee's victory was "the glory of Chinese all over the world." Its news crawl called him "the Best Chinese director, the first in Asia."



Lee's triumph marked a stunning vindication for someone who failed his college entrance exams twice a stinging blow for the son of a high-school principal who was expected to get ahead in Taiwan's supercharged academic atmosphere. Instead he was relegated to a place at the National Arts School, then a lightly regarded vocational school. But at NAS Lee discovered the passion for the stage and film that paved the way for his successful Hollywood career.



Lee's "Brokeback Mountain" triumph was not his first Oscar win. His kung fu film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," won for best foreign film, best score, best cinematography and best art direction in 2001. Now a great source of pride on his native island, pictures of Lee fill the halls of his secondary school in the southern city of Tainan. Also, a giant Lee poster adorns the movie theater where he watched films as a child.
