In Reply to: The original or the remake?nt posted by jamesgarvin on June 29, 2005 at 08:47:13:
Well I am not aware of a remake! I look and did only found a US TV production, is this what you mean?
Follow Ups:
The original was the 1955 film starring Alec Guinness, unseen by me. The remake was the Coen Brother's 2004 film starring Tom Hanks in the Guinness role. I bought the latter to keep my Coen Brother's collection up to date, but I thought it disappointing. I probably should see the original.
OH! I see we were speaking of two different films!!!It may be because I had problems with my Email post and lost somehow the thread.
Now back to the point.
You must see the Guiness film ( The Ladykillers ) as a fine example at British humour!
I would go so far as to say that is one one has to see even if it is not his style.
A classic.
PS: I did not see the remake as all the critics I read were so bad...And the trailer did not inspired me to.....
