IF a re-make were made, here's my cast


I've seen this idea on other boards so I thought I'd post it here, since re-makes are so popular nowadays who knows (?) one of Harvest Home might be made sometime. Perhaps it could also contain more from the book. I personally would like to see flashback scenes of Grace Everdeen when someone speaks of her. -Photos of these actors are available on IMDb, except Jessica Bowman (2nd Colleen from Dr.Quinn Medicine Woman). Any other ideas post'em.

Nick-Vincent Spano or Thomas Gibson
Beth-Jeri Ryan
Kate-Mila Kunis-maybe call her Kaitlyn to update it a bit
Widow-Louise Fletcher-no black sack dress or white cap-to me she looked too Amish-I'd rather her look very ordinary like anyone's grandmother-it's creepier that way
Tamar-Laura Mennell or for a different look Alicia Witt (in the book her daughter Missy was a redhead w/freckles which she might've inherited from Roger Penrose/Lauren McCutchin, but I'd just like to see Tamar as a redhead)
Missy-any ideas for a 6-7 yr.old actress w/red hair?
Worthy-Gregory Smith
Justin-Jason Lewis
Sophie-Kerri Russell or Ashley Scott
Amys-Ron Perlman or David Ackroyd
Jack-Michael Jeter
Small Grace-Gretchen Mol or Jessica Bowman
Large Grace-Kristen Johnston (w/brown contacts/hair colored auburn if Jessica as small Grace)
Maggie-Wendy Crewson
Robert-?
Jimmy-?

Unfortunately they couldn't film it in Kingsville, OH any longer - there's a huge "ADULT VIDEOS" neon sign at the interstate exit. :D

Your casting idea has some good choices,
I do not recognize some of the names, I would suggest a couple of ideas:
Beth-Julie Bowen
Kate- Mila Kunis or Hayden Panettiere
Widow Fortune I don't like Louise Fletcher , so how about Adrienne Barbeau? She has done horror movies so why not?

Justin-Jason Lewis is not a bad choice, any young good looking actor would do.
But, to update it a bit whatever actor you choose I think most female viewers would like to see him COMPLETELY NUDE. Also , of course he would have to be 15-20 younger than the actress he would have to impregnate.

Boston and Philly love to slander us, but they don t have as many fans as us
