| Yes, Chazwaza and I will have to agree to disagree. This is all too affirmative action/identity politics for me. I can sort of see it with the actors, but not with who is going to direct or write the movie. I find more to criticize about the original film than the ethnicity of the actors. If Lin Manuel Miranda was to do a version of West Side Story, I would welcome it, more because he has an interesting artistic and musical theatre sensibility than because he's Latino. The key figure in this for me is Spielberg, because he's a masterful director and I'm interested to see how he will deal with the problems of creating a musical on film. Kushner I could take or leave. |
