@sleepythug yeah this whole news story is just so strange to me like all i can do is laugh right now haha!! i think complaining about or stressing over remakes in general is sort of unnecessary (i look at them in the same way i look at covers of popular songs; it's an opportunity for one artist to take something already in existence and put their own spin on it... it's just hollywood is typically so unwilling to risk anything whatsoever that remakes usually end up just feeling bland), so I've never been totally against this idea, as rumors began to emerge about a month ago. i like that Maren Ade is producing the remake. i want to see who they cast as Jack's daughter and who they choose to direct before really allowing myself to get too excited/invested. if you havenât yet, i would read this mubi review of the movie detailing just how fucking european the film is and how it reflects theyâre current political climate, so not sure how (or if hollywood would even fucking TRY) to translate that into an american setting, particularly given our own current (disastrous) political environment.Â
