Author Topic: Film Remakes Ron Keillor Expert Film Handler Posts: 166 From: Vancouver, B.C. Canada Registered: Jul 2003 posted 08-06-2003 07:26 PM                     digressing a bit from the Freaky Friday chat: There's still a ways to go in recycling scripts. Two titles that came to mind were THE SPOILERS - 5 times (1914, 23, 30, 42 and 55) all based on the Rex Beach novel and SEVEN KEYS TO BALDPATE 7 times (1916 - Australia, 1917, 25, 29 -first time with sound, 35,46 and 47) IMdb says the 1946 was made for TV, but I don't buy that for that year. Does anyone know of any titles that beat this?  |  IP: Logged Jeffry L.

But Les Miserables has 20 plus 2 TV features for 22 total. Also 3 mini-series.  |  IP: Logged
