“Some movies should never be remade.”

Very few can be remade successfully. Ocean’s 11 was a monumental flop. In fact, most (all) of the recent remakes with the current movie players (They are in no way actors) have been flops.

I am a huge Audrey Hepburn fan and was uneasy about the remake of “Sabrina” with Julia Ormond in the title role. But I actually was surprised at how good the movie was. Harrison Ford was a better Linus Larrabee than Bogart.

If Mrs. BwanaNdege ever carries out her threats to run away and join the circus, then Julia Ormond has the edge over Audrey....she’s still alive, for starters.
