This photo was taken in Wong Kar-Wai-vision, or should I say Christopher Doyle-vision. This director and cinematographer have collaborated numerous time creating beautiful films. There will often be a shot where the person in the foreground is in focus but the background is blurred, see Chunking Express. This is relatively easy to do with photos but how does he do it on film? Unfortunately it looks like Wong Kar-Wai and Doyle have had a falling out. I hope they make up and make another movie with the dreamy Tony Leung.
