It's time for a make-over!

I am a complete history geek and really enjoy great cinema, so here's a burning question for me: Doesn't anyone else think it is past time for a re-make of the film 'Nicholas and Alexandra'? OK, OK, I can hear the "chick-flick" dismissal, but honestly, what a story and tragedy! The original was brilliant, and the musical score even better. It would be hard to top, but with all the new info since the Russian re-incarnation, isn't it time to re-tell the story? My vote is for- now think about it, note physical similarities- Ewan McGegor and Kate Winslett to play the title characters. It would be a great role for each of them and would make each of them reach farther for it than most of what they have done lately. Well, maybe not our Kate, but certainly Ewan. Hmmm, when they are signed and this film is produced do I get credit for being the first to suggest it/them, and may I please have a cut of the royalties?
