Dying for a remake


I've seen this movie. Don't get me wrong. It was a good movie. But I think it can be remade into a much better film. They can update it and make an awesome movie. Hey, it worked for Scarface. Not that the Scarface remake with Pacino was better in my opinion. But the Scarface remake was good. And I'm not saying to change the character from Italian to Cuban. Maybe they can even do a remake and keep it set during Prohibition. Who can you see as Little Caesar? Joe Pesci in his younger days would've been the obvious choice. I'm probably going to get hammered for this, but I can see Jerry Ferrara playing a modern day Rico.

I will weep if they remake this. Little Caesar is a pivotal piece of work - as is Edward G. Robinson's performance. I can't see anyone playing this role these days and nailing it the way he did.
