Writer Statement

I have a love/hate relationship with remakes. Some films are untouchable like “Citizen Kane” while others get churned out for a younger, hipper crowd. It’s that decision line of “Should we do this?” that intrigues me. Retell, reimagine, re-envision? When is it a good idea to touch a classic? Hopefully, “Possum Man” gets people thinking and debating such moves.
