Faith in Focus

Tracy and Jason are back with the lucky 13th season of Faith in Focus (Happy Friday the 13th, by the way!), where we're looking at movies that seem way outside the general vibe of their director (or do they?). 

This episode we consider Spike Lee's inventive 2013 reinterpretation of Park Chan-wook's brutal, brilliant Oldboy (2003) – how remakes rarely measure up, the old, old story of revenge, and what a person of faith might discover within this violent story.
