South Pacific- the musical with music by Richard Rodgers and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II was made into film in 1958 starring Mitzi Gaynor and again in 2001 starring Glenn Close.
I loved the 1958 version, but hated the 2001 version. The set was good, but the magic was just missing. Also, Glenn Close was too old for the part. Who wants to watch an old lady behaving like a love-sick teen?
My vote goes to pretty Mitzi.

I know I'll get bashed for this but I don't like Mitzi's voice, it doesn't feel strong enough. I don't like Glenn's either. Her voice is off....Here's an unknown: check out Judy Garland singing this.

@nigeldavenport Uh, no, she's 62, and since this was made 10 years ago, she's 52 in the clip.

why do they have to make remake movies when the original were the best. And putting the wong person in them.

I grew up with this music and now 50 years later is still seems fresh and wonderful. We're seeing a stage play of SP this Friday in Austin. I'm about as pumped as I get these days.

Why the insistence on remaking Hollywood classics? They hardly ever get it better than the original? If cinema is art, then isn't remaking a classic gem sorta like repainting the Mona Lisa, or rewriting Beethoven? Anyone looking forward to a remake of The Godfather, Taxi Driver, On The Waterfront... {sheesh already with the rermakes]..

The original wins hands down! It is so "of its time" and the casting was brilliant even down to the "minor parts". The 2001 version was a travesty by comparison.
It was missing all the nuances...
