If there were a remake, I know, God forbid, but anyway, if there were, I think Sam Riley (Control, Franklyn) would make a great Harold, or Lukas Haas, though he's getting a bit old for the role imo.
As for Maude, Doris Day would guarantee 'shock' value. Otherwise, a makeup free Helen Mirren would do nicely imo.
Betty White and Elijah Wood (Yes, he could play a 19-year old)
In retrospect to a previous post, I think Fugit has too much "life" in his eyes.
I'm holding everyone to a higher standard- a standard much higher than my own
Remake = blasfemy
Why remake something that was made so brilliantly?
What's the problem of watching an old movie without current famous people?
Is it so hard to concentrate on the film rather than on the stars?
Who do you think should rewrite Hamlet? LOL
Who do you think should rewrite Hamlet? LOL
Definitely Tarantino!
Or maybe Scorsese...
Hamlet(Looking in he mirror) You wanna be? You wanna not be? It might be nobler in the mind to suffer slings and arrows, c^cksucker...
You wanna take arms against a sea of troubles and end them, motherf^cker?
I refuse to change my position just because you use logic
I'm with everyone that thinks it shouldn't be remade. I think the idea mentioned about a sequel could be interesting. I'd like to see Harold dealing with Maude's death and going back to his regular life, maybe eventually meeting someone and the difficulties he faces in being unwilling to let go of Maude and care about another girl? I don't know.
Well if they do remake it or anything along those lines, I'm not sure who I'd want to play Maude, but I think that Anton Yelchin would be a great Harold.
How about Michael Cera and Barbra Streisand?
Or better yet: Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore.
Michael Cera, Jesus, no.
Why remake when you already have a beautiful classic? But if they did, I'd put forward Imelda Staunton.
It doesn't need to be remade.
If it were they should probably go with Betty White and Justin Bieber. Gawd, what an amazing sight to see those two in bed together.
j/k
I'm not really in favor of a remake, but if one is ever made I think Ellen Burstyn should be Maude & Patrick Fugit should be Harold

Just saw the movie "Submarine" recently (beautiful film, highly recommended) and Craig Roberts, who played the lead in the film, I think would be perfect for "Harold." But please hollywood, don't remake this. Just don't.
