Hollywood unsuccessfully copying European Cinema: A comparative remake study of The Intouchables and The Upside

In English

Författare

  • Felix de la Motte

Summary, in English

This comparative study aims to analyze the ways Hollywood producers and filmmakers turn
European films into ones of their own and why they are often reflected upon as being worse
than its predecessors. The analysis primarily uses the French film The Intouchables (2011)
and its Hollywood remake, The Upside (2017) as a way to explore this. This study
furthermore investigates the reasons behind this trend and what reflections can be made to the
international film industry as a whole. Putting remakes as a concept in both a micro and
macro perspective for a more nuanced analysis.
