Consequently, Hockney and Gayford's tête-à-tête seems more a pretext for ingenious formal comparisons — between, for instance, Ingrid Bergman's misty eyes in "Casablanca" and Titian's "Repentant Mary Magdalene"; the tempestuous seas in Disney's "Pinocchio" and Utagawa Hiroshige's "Naruto Whirlpool" — and less a method of transcending old ideas of what "high culture" looks like.
