Search for files owned by particular owner and group

I am searchingfor files owned by particular owner and group in a particular directory including its sub-directories. I use

Code:
find <dir> -user <user> -group <group> -exec ls -l {} \;

It does not work completely. In the sense is a subdirectory is owned by 'user' and group 'group' then all files under that directory are also displayed even though they are owned by different user/group.

Any help?
