REMAKE continues its theatrical release in the United Kingdom, where it’s received incredible press.
Director Ross McElwee sat down with The Guardian and The Financial Times for two insightful interviews.
The Times and The Guardian both gave 5 stars in their reviews! A few of our favorite quotes:
“One of the most outstanding films of this year” – Jonathan Romney, The Financial Times
“This new film from revered documentary-maker Ross McElwee is an extraordinary work, arguably his most audacious use yet of autobiographical material…A profoundly moving work, one that will resonate with anyone who is a parent or close to a troubled kid, but one that has so much more about the making of art, its joys and its dishonesties. It lingers in the mind long after the tears have dried.” – Leslie Felperin, The Guardian
“Sometimes it feels as if all human life is contained in this deeply moving documentary from veteran American filmmaker Ross McElwee.” – Kevin Maher, The Times
