Does anyone know of any?
What I mean is say, twenty years along the line, a new director comes along and decides to remake a TV show or film, but keeps the original scripts word-for-word.
Life on Mars, and Life on Mars USA, bar the last episode, are exactly the same (more or less); it was a remake but keeping the original scripts. Watching it after watching the brit one it's easy to sit there going "oh how are they gonna do x storyline?" and then seeing it and being wow, that's totally different even though the script is the same or whatever.
Anyway I wondered if they've done it with anything else. Films would be interesting, especially if the gap between the two is large enough.
