- W2791151234 abstract "Park Chan-wook’s <italic>Oldboy</italic> (2003) achieved only moderate success on its initial release in South Korea, but upon finding international distribution it attained much greater notoriety, winning a major prize at Cannes and attracting an unusually passionate and positive critical consensus. This chapter examines Spike Lee’s 2013 transnational film remake in terms of its critical reception, and the way in which the ‘reinterpretation’ was framed by its director in press interviews and public discourse. The chapter analyses how Lee attempted to escape the negative connotations of the ‘remake’ and brand his film as another entry in his own <italic>auteurist</italic> canon, despite the sceptical response from critics. This chapter further analyses the reception of the film in terms of the ways critics address the spectacle of violence, notions of taste, and the assumed cultural differences between American and South Korean audiences. Lee’s <italic>Oldboy</italic> thus offers the opportunity not only to examine the transformation of material from one director to another, but to interrogate broader debates over the intersection of the <italic>auteur</italic> as symbol/brand and the imagined (lack of) creative freedom afforded directors of remakes." @default.
