#129 - Directors' Remakes: Cold Pursuit and In Order of Disappearance & Funny Games (1997, 2007)

On this episode of Celluloid Heroes, Sean and Steven talk about directors remaking their own movies. First, we talk about the newest Liam Neeson kill-em-all called Cold Pursuit, which is a remake of a Norwegian film called In Order of Disappearance. Both movies are directed by Hans Petter Moland and follow pretty much the same beats, but we talk about what effects this has on the audience and the movies themselves. In that same vein, we talk about Michael Haneke's film Funny Games from 1997, which he remade 10 years later, shot-for-shot in English. Why do this? What does it all mean? Rate and review us on Apple Podcasts, and enjoy!
