: I don't consider "lush/glossy" and "subdued" to be mutually exclusive (Argento's TRAUMA is visually subdued compared to say OPERA or SUSPIRIA, but it's still a very lush looking film with beautiful lighting), JERSEY GIRL has some really lush looking shots in it, but it still strikes me as "subdued" in comparison to say a Scorsese film. That's what I was getting at.
Thanks for the clarification. I wasn't trying to see if Kevin was gonna knock Scorsese on his ass or anything but seeing how the look compares to other films of its kind (like I'd assume VZ's recent work, and the romantic dramadies of Cameron Crowe).
