From the same guy who shot parts of "Geisha" at T1.3 (anamorphic T1.3!!)
It worked for the movie, but it worked to emphasize a "video look" rather than a "film look." He wanted the movie to look like video, so he shot on it.
There have been great deep focus films of course (Citizen Kane), but deep focus was used for the exact opposite reason most people here use DOF adapters in this case (to differentiate from film.) Even Citizen Kane was a departure from soft style cinematography used to create a "weird" look.
Good movie, by the way, and some excellent and very innovative cinematography (although some parts were a bit sloppy.)
