Cloud in Trousers

by Christopher Doyle

An original book exploring the exceptional imagery and words of cinematographer and photographer extraordinaire Christopher Doyle, A Cloud in Trousers attests to Doyle's ongoing obsession with sex, light, and mystery. Though new to American audiences, Doyle's work has been shown in museums and galleries through out Europe and especially in Asia where, under his Chinese name Du Ke Feng, he is a beloved pop-culture figure in his own right. The look he invented for such films as Wong Kar-Wai's Days of Being Wild and Chungking Express have been endlessly imitated, and he has just completed his first film in America, Gus Van Sant's remake of Psycho.
