Remakes

from [livejournal.com profile] fannish5:

Name five remakes that you think are better than the originals.

I don't think I can name five, but here you go:

1. Sabrina (I'm a sucker for Harrison Ford!)

2. The Thomas Crown Affair (Rene Russo - WOW!, and the soundtrack and that scene in the museum at the end and the sex scene between Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo - WOW!!!)

Yes, and that was about it.

I like Casablanca better than Havana and La Femme Nikita better than Point of No Return, I definitely prefer Hitchcock's Psycho, Dial M for Murder and Rear Window to their remakes and I think that it's ridiculous to produce a remake of Bella Martha (No Reservations, which I haven't seen yet, I admit that) when the 'original' is so good.
