La Jetee is good 'n' all but I don't quite get the acclaim - it's a neat and clever little scifi tale which would be all but forgotten if it had just been a story in an anthology. I wonder if any other stories could be transformed with a haunting series of still black and white images...

This last sentence is a really interesting thing to ponder!

okay i've decided that this is really awesome if you forget that its a remake and that is largely due to madeleine stowe's face+fats domino

It's a sideways remake since Gilliam hadn't seen it when he made the film, and there are huge odd Gilliamisms all over it.

ha I would love to see gilliam remake sideways (with surviving python cast)!

That would be great!

this movie looks like it could stand to use this treatment. it's kind of halfway there with the subtitles.

david fincher should remake sans soleil with a subplot about futuristic cyber hackerz, not sure how that would work tbh
