“Art has its consequences!” Christopher Doyle told the British Film Institute during a 2019 interview. The Australian cinematographer recounted what happened as the crew for “Chungking Express”—now a must-watch film in Hong Kong New Wave—was shooting in his flat while he still lived there. “There was a scene where we flooded the place. Then we left. I guess I went on to another film. Two or three months later, I came back and the people downstairs were going to sue us. We’re on the third floor and it flooded through every apartment downstairs.”
