I'd also disagree about some the technical aspects of the disc, but then that's about par for course when we disagree about the finer points of a DVD. Given the POV camera work, I'd say that some of the close-ups you found troublesome were nescessary for the theme of the disc - when I viewed the disc, I never found them too off putting. IMHO, add at least 0.5 to that score if you can understand the Japanese.

I didn't 'get' most of the talk - so I didn't know if the so called dream sequences were dreams or play-acting between lovers. I'd hoped you would touch on this for us but you didn't. As for the closeups - I am not troubled by either frequency or how close provided they continue to put the model in a good light. JMM Okay fair enough. I didn’t ‘get’ most of the talk -
