Caché gets Hollywood remake
Brian Grazer has grabbed the French film (review to come) Caché by Michael Haneke to remake with the possibility of Ron Howard directing.
I've seen the original, and while it's very good and carries excellent performances from Daniel Auteuil and Juliette Binoche, there does seem a lot that could be done to tighten up the film and produce a bigger impact on the audience. I really liked the story, but I felt it almost got lost in its own subtlety. As I say, I'll get a review of it up soon.
Haneke, as Obsessed With Film reports, is currently working on his first Hollywood film called Funny Games, a remake of his own film of the same name, this one stars Naomi Watts and Tom Roth. So he's too busy to remake another of his own films.
Is anyone else of the opinion that a remake of Caché could be good? Who could possibly replace Auteuil and Binoche and give such powerful performances?
