[A.O. Scott writing about Spike Lee's remake of the movie "Old Boy" in
2013. The original (2003) was directed by Park Chan-wook, who paid a
"stylistic debt to past and present filmmakers, including Stanley
Kubrick, Luis Buñuel and David Fincher."]
Mr. Lee, a true original who sometimes wears his influences on his
sleeve, is thus in the potentially awkward position of replicating a
movie notable for its imitations of other movies.
