ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

Remake was written before the Internet Movie Database and all the other online movie information sites existed, so I owe a huge vote of thanks to all the people who helped me find movie references and movie quotations; come up with examples of chase scenes, tears, and happy endings; and figure out who played that one guy in that one movie, you know the one, I don’t remember the title, but it was about a chorus girl. I couldn’t have done it without them:

Scott and Sheryl Kippen

all the rest of the UNC Sigma Tau Deltans

my secretary Laura Norton Lewis

and my daughter Cordelia and her college statistics classes at Nebraska Wesleyan
