Also, whenever I feel a little wobbly about her acting, I remind myself of her yellow-toothed snarl in the denouement of of BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN and my faith is restored.Laramie Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04260779676087231399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-28152313355393276352019-01-17T11:04:31.917-05:002019-01-17T11:04:31.917-05:00The thing is, The Witches is a damned good movie o...The thing is, The Witches is a damned good movie on its own and doesn't need a remake. There are plenty of other books that could be filmed instead, including some of Roald Dahl's. If a remake is needed, make a more faithful version of James and the Giant Peach, otherwise, there's The Twits and my students' favorite, George's Marvelous Medicine. I created a really fun lesson plan for that book, so that's why they loved it. <br /><br />Remake Bedknob and Broomstick. The movie with Lansbury is good, but, with the exception of the characters, has a totally different story than the book. <br /><br />BTW: Mary Poppins Returns is lovely!
