Very funny considering Shakespeare appropriated a shitton himself. His tragedies often drew from different cultures and legends, which he morphed into whatever worked best. Even his historical plays have fuck all to do with history.
A genuine question for those defending every casting decision in The Odyssey…
If someone adapted Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet and completely reimagined the nationality, appearance, or traditional portrayal of several iconic characters…
Would you still say:
“The best actor should always get the role.”
Or would you suddenly start talking about staying faithful to Shakespeare?
That’s why this debate fascinates me.
Should we judge every classic by the same standard…
Or do we only defend creative freedom when it’s our favorite director
the difference is that the batman was carefully planned out like, you know, a normal movie. nwh (and almost every mcu movie for that matter) was being written and rewritten as it was shooting and handed to vfx with egregious deadlines.
@veepthroat Look, I am pro-Colbert too, and he is a good interviewer, but he's nowhere near Stewart's level of articulate deconstruction of politicians' bullshit.
Minotaur: Andreï Zviaguintsev brilliantly transposes Unfaithful/The Unfaithful Wife onto modern Russia, freighting a familiar adultery plot w/ blithe & immense new weight as it plays out against the war in Ukraine. colossal. staggering. Anohni music cue! film of the year. #cannes
