"Gus Van Sant has been hearing one question put to him a lot these days. The question is, WHY? Why would anyone--least of all the idiosyncratic director of "Drugstore Cowboy" and "Good Will Hunting"--want to do a remake of "Psycho"? Not, mind you, a remake that reinterprets and reinvents the classic 1960 Hitchcock shocker but one that apparently duplicates the original virtually line by line and shot by shot, only this time in color? Van Sant, 45, may be the only person puzzled by the question. "I wasn't really aware that I had crossed some bounds. Why are they asking why? For me there are many, many reasons: the biggest reason of all is that nobody's ever done it." [Fonte]
Três questões: será que temos legitimidade de avaliar uma obra que não é original de todo e que copia, cena por cena, um clássico do cinema? Qual acham ser a razão central de ser deste remake (desta vez, no verdadeiro sentido do termo)? Consideram válido classificar o filme como uma "obra de arte"?
Não deixem de opinar! Próxima crítica (final do especial Gus Van Sant): Gerry
