Crash #109: The Remake

In this new issue, Crash explores the remake as more than repetition: a way of revisiting, reinterpreting and transforming what came before. As Gilles Deleuze said in « Difference and Repetition » (1968), it is precisely in repetition that we discern difference ». What if the remake were the most radical form of creation?

Following his prize in Cannes for Harris Dickinson’s « Urchin », cover star Frank Dillane embodies this idea through his role as John Willoughby in Georgia Oakley’s new adaptation of « Sense and Sensibility. » In conversation with Crash, the rising English actor reflects on remakes, his life and his evolving relationship with cinema.
