However that New York setting is long gone.

Exactly!

Would be like trying to re-make "The Best Years of Our Lives" with servicemen returning from Afghanistan.

The fellow with the hook hands would be replaced with a trannie. The "Dana Andrews" character would be openly gay. The "Frederic March" character would be a drug addict.

At the end of the film, the "Dana Andrews" character would have to give a speech in which he denounces American exceptionalism and inveighs against interventions in foreign conflicts.

Sickening to contemplate!

This ian’t an update or a revision. It’s still WSS set at the same time as the original.
