This sort of fits with the recent series, Dickinson, where Hailey Steinfeld played a very work, modern speaking version of Emily Dickinson. I liked the Dickinson treatment but it was woke and sort of out there, however it motivated me to explore the work of Ms Dickinson. I understand that modernizing classic lit is not always a good thing but keeping young people interested in lit and reading is a good thing.
The movie about Peter Rabbits creator ‘Miss Potter’ was a bit wokey too ...
