“This new adaptation centers the Bride’s emotional and psychic dichotomy as a linguistic one, making her passion for Leonardo manifest in her native Spanish, whereas her formal and societal relations with her Groom and his mother are in English. This new layer of code switching and distinct linguistic personalities added a powerful contemporary access point for multilingual audiences.”
