| Hadestown is a reworking of Greek mythology. Do I want to hear Greek songs? No. Lion king is reworking of hamlet—is that racist to use African animals instead of danish cast? If someone wants to keep the widler movie sacred, then they can watch the dvd or stream it as much as they want. But reworking the basic story for modern audience is good for me. I don’t see much use in bringing movies to stage intact like the graduate and many others. I guess it’s nice to see an actors take on the material instead of a remake of the exact movie, wHich does happen with Agatha Christie movies. But I’m willing to pay $15 for a remake movie and not $150 for the play. |
