I think the original is way better for this reason: People don't make movies like this anymore!! Back then, they were so much more intellectual, deep and enticing. They drew you in and made you feel....THINK! I don't think the movie-going public of today (for the most part) could appreciate movies of this caliber. Think about Butterfield 8, or countless others that far surpass films of today.

I totally agree with you on everything you said. Totally! The Classics rule!

Also agree . . . the films today are a waste of time and effort . . . they're junk!

Agreed. I've seen exactly ONE film made in the 21st century that was worthy of the price of admission...Master and Commander.
