because to Americans, British, sounds as much 'furriner' as they're able to stand ...?Most of the actors are British.
Didn't even know about that one. Why do you think it is SO much better? Maybe bcos it's directed by a UkrainianHollywood did its own "War and Peace" before Russia did its version (...) is so much better.

If you continue a conversation a year later, there is no chance I will remember what I was talking about!
Your Shakespeare examples make a good point. The Japanese King Lear is one of my favorite movies.
If you strip Zhivago of the politics and history, then the love story could be adapted to a likely shorter film in a different setting. I may be an outlier among Zhivago fans in finding the romance part a bit dull!
I knew "Les liaisons dangereuses" was an 18th century French novel, and the 2 American versions that I have seen are still set in France, not Los Angeles or New York. I am guessing your third version is "Cruel Intentions"? That definitely has a different setting. I have also seen the 1950s movie.
