83: Make/Remake Oldboy

Make/Remake examines how two films that share the same story. It isn’t about what film was better or worse, but how they are similar and different while following the same arcs. In this episode we look at Park Chan-wook’s 2003 movie Oldboy and Spike Lee’s 2013 version with the same name. Joining Dakota on this episode is Gemma Mastroianni and the two try to avoid spoilers, so if you haven’t seen these films you are probably good to still listen!
