We stand in the shadow of our childhood loves and see them being reworked, rewritten and given new life, for some such a moment in which they see their favourite film given a fresh face is perhaps too much to bear. The social media outrage can be vicious, head-scratching and concerning and whilst it is understandable that we see our own lives wrapped in such events, the way we look upon change now is almost as if it is personal, directed against our first firm held beliefs.
