I loved the original, and have wondered why there's never been an attempt at a new version. Thinking that hellish battle footage could almost put the audience in York's boots, and a the prospect of a realistic portrayal of the personal York backstory in a modern, non-Hollywood fashion makes me drool. Hope it happens, someday.

  It was a John Ford film, I think.
  Much too long but with a lot of charm.
  Who would want a remake?
  
  Maybe with Audie Murphy?

    It was a Howard Hawks picture, not a Ford.
