Remake 'The Birdman'
I recently saw this film again and decided to do a bit of research on Stroud. After having done so I now suggest that this film cries out to be remade. It is a farce and a travesty. Stroud was a murderous thug, manipulative, violent and was extremely fortunate that he was not put to death as was his original punishment for his crimes. His free-flying birds made a disease-prone mess of Stroud and his cell. The film is based on a book by Thomas Gaddis, a sympathetic portrayal of Stroud equally deserving of our condemnation. Why can't Hollywood get anything right?
