Filmmaker Wong Kar Wai, who botched his recent remasters, and explained it with nonsense like
“No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and he’s not the same man.”
“It is impossible for us to dance exactly like we did before. What has really changed is not the films but the man on the floor.”
and “The point of our restoration is not to confront or resolve any problems, but to keep the tree that holds these whispers well and healthy.”
Sigh.
