7 Remakes for the Cineplex, Part I
So all the original ideas have been used? That creative spring is merely an occasional oasis, appearing out of nowhere. Usually, we are parched and starving when we finally spot it. This article is merely fitting in, some obscure name, trying to cash in on a hot fad. I decided, after seeing many pooTopper was a hit in the 1930's, featuring Cary Grant and Constance Bennett as the mischievous ghosts troubling poor old Topper, a banker. It was funny then, but I feel a great adaptation could do well today. Nothing like a little supernatural humor to brighten our "spirits." Can you imagine? I would offer the role of George Kerby to Jim Carrey, hands down, uniting him with Kate Hudson. You know what, I really loved Robert DeNiro in Meet The Parents, I can only imagine what he could do with Topper. What a fantastic casting idea for the remake of Topper! Wow, that has blockbuster written all over it. Topper Rides Again, I cannot wait.
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir featured Rex Harrison, as the ghost of a grumpy sea captain, and Gene Tierney, as Mrs. Muir. This was released in 1947. Another supernatural flick, this time with a romantic twist. I am sorry, but supernatural topics always seem to capture our imaginations. I would offer the role of the sea captain's ghost to, the one and only, Robert Redford. As Mrs. Muir, I think I am leaning toward Jodie Foster. The perfect script could possibly capture both of their attention.
