As you might expect, all does not turn out perfectly&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Okay&#8230; so She&#8217;s All That was a teen version of Pygmalion; 10 Things I Hate About You rethunk William Shakespeare&#8217;s The Taming of the Shrew; and Cruel Intentions was a remake of Dangeous Liasons.

Of course.<\/p>\n<p>And so, Columbia Pictures&#8217; entry into the &#8220;Spring Teen&#8221; market is this teen version of Cyrano de Bergerac (also remade as Steve Martin&#8217;s Roxanne), though as far as I know, this version drops the big-nose motiff. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to ~dazy~ for mentioning this movie!
