Today’s question comes from Jim, who writes:

I’ve got a question of the day for you: What film would make the most unlikely mainstream blockbuster Hollywood remake? I got to thinking about how Michael Bay would deal with Godard’s Week End, for example.

So there it is:

Which classic film would make for the most unlikely Hollywood blockbuster remake? And who would make it?

Tyler Perry’s Madea’s A Tree Grows in Brooklyn? Disney Presents Tim Burton’s Freaks? Could it get worse?

And nine years later, I’m going to make the obvious suggestion: David Cronenberg’s My Mother, the Car.
