Christopher Doyle - Rampant Egomaniac?


What's up with CD on this commentary? He only mentions Pen Ek by name a scant two or three times through the whole thing. He seemingly takes credit for just about every single visual cue in the entire flick! By about 40 minutes in, I was seriously peeved at his lack of deference to his director. I'll give Doyle credit for some lighting, colors, and sets . . . but the genius of this movie belongs with Pen Ek and, to a parallel extent, Takashi Miike.
I have to say, that Doyle plops out the most cockeyed Asian-film commentary this side of Ric Meyers (don't even get me started on that fat pud's interview with Stephen Chow on the Kung Fu Hustle R1 xtras).

Let's face it he was probably roaring drunk at the time.

No probably about it.
