Split Reel Podcast

This episode open with one of the best moments: Steve speaking Spanish! A day after Another Round won the Oscar for Best International Feature Film it was announced that it was going to be remade for American audiences with a possible starting vehicle for Leonardo DiCaprio. This prompted the idea of talking about the idea of remaking international films in America by Hollywood. We have an awesome conversation of what can be gained or lost when remaking them, what are some of the implications fo doing this, and we list some International Films that have been remade by Hollywood. Some you know of and others maybe not. We also discuss some hot topics for the week like the trailer for Venom: Let it be Carnage and the HUGE NEWS that the Golden Globes WILL NOT be aired in 2022. SHOCKER! Take a listen!
