I think it gave a really delicious voyeuristic appeal, you get to really scrutinize the characters in a way that you don't get to in real life.

ALSO I just watched an interview with him where he says that the visuals were as shallow as the love they feel, so thats why he focused on it.

Nope. But it was fun, and it fit with the rest of the film.

I loved the slow motion... it felt like I was looking at beautiful photographs, and I had time to take in all the colours and textures. I thought the imagery was delicious.

I LOVED the slow motion. Made me focus on the characters even more and what they had to be feeling at the time.
