Rumors of remakes and reboots are all over the place right now, but this one has to be the most min-blowing/exciting that’s surfaced maybe ever.
/Film is reporting that Danish film director Lars von Trier is teaming up with Martin Scorsese to remake the new-holloywood classic Taxi Driver. If that’s not enough, Robert de Niro will again star.
Brendon Connelly writes:
“The von Trier project would be likely to go in a completely different direction, however, and play more like a deconstruction of Scorsese’s original than a new drama we could expect to reveal itself fully without reference to the original.”
The only way to top this is, of course, would be to release it 3D.
Thoughts?
moviez two nights in a row! what an exciting life i lead. last night i went to see the last station with a few friends. not surprisingly, the theater was packed with old people. we were probably the youngest in attendance last night. ahhh, reminds me of when i went to see atonement a few years ago. james mcavoy really knows how to draw in those seniors.
while delightful and touching, i didn’t think the last station was a fantastic movie. nevertheless, i enjoyed it. based on the biographical novel by jay parini, the film follows the last year of leo tolstoy’s life and his relationship with wife, sofya andreevna bers. to sit back and watch the exchanges between sofya (mirren) and tolstoy (plummer), is worth the watch alone. they were captivating and james mcavoy was charming as usual… but i thought he was charming even in that heaping pile of shit known as wanted.
after seeing a single man, i can’t say that the oscar should go to plummer. both actors are great, but between these two performances, plummer doesn’t hold a candle to firth.
