Where do I start?
The fact that I don't approve or find it difficult your lists of actresses, is more than obvious...
Well, that was my problem with your original post; it wasn't that obvious: Because you "..find it difficult with these actresses.." somehow I should understand that to mean 'I [you] don't approve'? I'm kind of more confused than ever. What I'm trying to say is that MY point was you didn't take any time to support your statement; you just threw it out there to flounder on it's own, which is why I reacted like I did. You made a negative statement and offered no reasoning behind it. Approve of what? 'What' did you find difficult?
I'll put it in a nutshell.
In my opinion I don't see any actress emulating that iconic role of Zsuzsa Czinkóczi, maybe I'm not right and Kev is right, that's what I mean.

In Plenilunio, I see it as having the makings of a series, it's like the same plot of True Detective, something like the cop is discovering bodies every chapter and the killer is more mysterious, anyway, the actresses are just morgue figures, for a movie I just hope they don't end up making it with adult actresses in teenage roles.
Back to the purpose of the thread; you bring up some interesting titles:
*Tideland
*Plenilunio
*Taxi Driver
*Cider With Rosie
I'd rather keep Tideland and Plenilunio, Taxi Driver I only used it because in that decade there were many controversial movies that are not worth mentioning, a remake of them is worse than Total Recall or Robocop.

I'm kind of sad to not see much of a response to what I think is kind of an interesting thread.. But, C'est la vie!
It's like asking today's filmmakers if they are interested in remaking aforementioned titles.
The Secret Garden as tv series if they correct strangeness that was made in 1975 when Colin was well too fast and in 2020 where there was too much all sort of special effects
Cider with Rosee... they made it in 2015 and it was the worst of three

Well, Sully; once again I think you're the front-runner in our "TRY-TO-MAKE-A-POST-THAT-IS-AS-IRRELEVANT-AS-IT-IS-INCOMPREHENSABLE" contest.
This.

Btw. My list is
Taxidriver with a similarly aged actress, but WITHOUT the body double... Both these are never gonna happen. Unless life-like robots and/or CGI.
Tideland... Jodelle really knocked that role out of the park, did such a good job then.
The weirdest remake was True Grit (2010) () where the role of the 14 year old character Mattie was orginally played by a 19 year old, but now it went to a actress who was 13 year old IRL, who, it's true still LOOKED like 17, but still...

I'm only interested in the bathscene lasting more than 30s and I know how it was originally going to be in 1993, otherwise paint it all CGI.

I really pictured Jodelle Ferland doing the scenes that didn't make it into the book. I really wouldn't find an actress of the stature of Miranda Cosgrove or Dafne Keen, any suggestions? not blonde or older than 12y.
