More fundamental problem: Genius in 1957: "Let's rewrite Rome & Juliet, set it in our own time, inventing the newest music and dance." Good effort in 2021: "Let's revise West Side Story, set it in 1957, slightly modifying more than half-century old music and dance." — PolitiTweet.org

Not that I didn't enjoy the West Side Story remake. I did! But it was like going to the museum to see cherished paintings after a chemical scrub. Here's the familiar masterwork all shiny and clean, the reds and yellows brighter even than when the original was new and fresh. — PolitiTweet.org
