John Woo, L’Uomo Vogue, 1997
For his portrait of Hong Kong filmmaker John Woo, Comte turns the director’s chair away from the audience in an extraordinarily bold composition. Known for his stylised action films like Face/Off and Mission: Impossible 2 (2000), the broken backed chair evokes a sense of conflict and drama, Woo not even needing to look at the camera. Comte demonstrates the completeness of his vision and his willingness to break the traditions of portraiture to make a truly compelling.
