Would anyone like to see this remade with modern actors; such as Kurt Russell or Denzel Washington?

Off the top. Name a remake of a classic that turned out well?

I hear ya. But which of those were classics originally? The bar is set higher when the original is already a classic

All of them
Not as famous as the third man, but still classics

I kept on seeing the late Philip Seymour Hoffman's rather chubby face while watching Welles.
And I reckon Patricia Highsmith saw this movie and thought about the American Harry misbehaving overseas when dreaming up the Tom Ripley stories.
And doesn't Harry Lime refers to Holly as 'old boy'? And doesn't that also occur in the 1999 version of
The Talented Mr. Ripley
.
