Movie done again
A film remake is a new version of a previously released movie, retelling the same story or adapting the same source material.
Remakes range from faithful recreations to radical reimaginings: The 1998 Psycho was a shot-for-shot remake of Hitchcock's original.
Studios remake films to update special effects, reach new audiences, or adapt foreign-language hits for domestic markets.
