I'm a screenwriting student, two semesters shy of a B.A., and just wrote a first draft of a remake of this film among my other projects. Before anyone attacks me don't worry, while it is a fairly loose remake, I didn't turn it into a dumb Hollywood shoot em-up complete with over the top heroics, glaring historical inaccuracies and a syrupy happy ending. Please respond if you'd like to know more.

I'd definitely like to know more about it maybe even read the script once you were done writing it.

Brilliant, absoultely brilliant dude
I myself am a screenwriting student and am writing a film called The California Cuts (and yes i have a paton on that title lol) which is somewhat based on "Breaks" but set in the 90s and in Cali with a different type of heist. Because horses aren't valuable anymore, because we are no longer pioneers. I have Depp in mind for my Lee Clayton type of character. And if my agent can get Depp on board, I will be a very rich man!

I thought about it but am trying not to write the characters with any one actor in mind for them. That said Clayton in my version is purposefully very different from the one in the film so whoever would be cast could create their performance independent of Brando's.
