Telling the story toughest part of Life of Pi: Ang Lee

MUMBAI (REUTERS) - Despite the slick special effects, creation of a fake tiger and shooting underwater, the toughest part of making Life Of Pi was telling the story, director Ang Lee said on Monday.

The Academy Award-winning director who is in Mumbai to promote his latest project, based on the bestselling novel of the same name, said it was the hardest movie he had ever shot.

"The book makes a philosophical point about theology and zoology. It examines illusions. To me that is the hardest. How do you create illusion, especially with so much money?" Lee said at a press conference in Mumbai.

"I'll be honest with you, I have been very stressed for the last four years,".
