How could I forget him? He's absolutely one of the best.
Anyone's know a site with info about him? A bit more substantial than imdb.

Dod's minidv work on 28 days later was fantastic. Proof it can be done...though with some heavy post-work.

I was at the Berlin Talent Campus and he was one of the lecturers. At one point during one of the panels, there was a delay in projecting a video clip, and to fill the gap he jumped to his feet and started an oh-so-sexy soft shoe number.

aw man you're so lucky.  I heard he and Gus Van Sant did a lecture at the USC, some girl in the audience was trying to ask him a question, he was drunk and just got too impatient with her polite words so he shouted "YO BITCH!" into the crowd.

That's pretty much exactly what he was like - except that he was also incredibly warm and gracious. So, in the case you mentioned, after saying YO BITCH, he would have probably smiled like a teddy bear and everyone would be like, "oh, he's so cute!" He's also, of course, incredibly smart, even when he's tanked, and he's a joy to speak to.

Here's one of the pics I took of him, showcasing the aforementioned winning smile:

yeah he's had a crazy life and he's eloquent in English, Chinese AND French, not just fluent, but eloquent.  man, he's just the perfect man!
he used to work under my mom in the Taiwanese cultural office in Taipei way back in the early 80s.

until just now i thought that Emmanuel Lubezki and Matthew Libatique were the same person.
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.
