No, please no!

Madonna wants to make a remake of Casablanca and she wants to set it in war-torn Iraq.
The source said: "Madonna is talking about taking the Ingrid Bergman role for herself, even though Bergman was in her 20s when she played Ilsa and Madonna is nearly 50.

"She wants to update the story and maybe set it in a modern war zone such as Iraq. There is no script yet."
No, please no!!! This will not get Madonna's film career going. On the contrary. She will become a laughingstock because nobody can ever replace Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart . And having the film set in Iraq. Totally ridiculous! There should be a law against remakes of old classic films. There is a reason why they are classics and it should stay that way.
