In the 1973 film "Papillon," Steve McQueen escapes from which penal colony island?
Correct answer: Devil's Island

Gail Anderson, unbelievably, a remake of the movie is coming out this year. Can't do any better than McQueen and Hoffman!

BirdDroppings2018, Why do people insist upon remaking a first rate movie. Just how can it get better?? 🤔
Gail Anderson
Great story. Both book and in movie form
Penny Plant
DistressedHunter8576, it can't get better. Somethings should just be left alone.

DistressedHunter8576, Jonathon Harris, Dr. Smith from "Lost in Space", would not participate in the movie remake of "Lost in Space" because he didn't want to tamper with perfection.

BirdDroppings2018, I will not be watching the remake. Why remake a classic

DistressedHunter8576, I felt the same way about the "Psycho" remake. What monumental ego thought he could improve upon Hitchcock?

Gail Anderson, I have a first edition book (English). It's awesome. ;)

Can you believe the ONLY Oscar nomination for this was the music??? (And it was worthy of winning.) This should have been nominated in several categories- the most obvious, acting!

GREAT film.

]apillion was a very well made movie. Steve McQueen was so good in it. very believable. I still can't figure how he escaped. that island was always guarded.apparently someone was inattentive.

DistressedHunter8576, it does happen.. 0.01% of the time... I loved the Matthew Broderick version of Music Man with Kristin Chenoweth..

I'll have to look this remake up. The original was very good, but, I am interested to see how they've probably effed it up.

BirdDroppings2018, although Jax of SOA fame is playing Steve's role so might be good to at least check out.

Papillon means butterfly in French, if anyone was wondering what that had to do with the tattoo.

DistressedHunter8576, why do people insist on performing Mozart's or Beethoven's music again & again?
