- Untouchable is one preference; another favors a six-hour series in 1980 or the present to explore psychological transformation more deeply.
- Remaking is resisted because the unresolved meanings and period context give the film lasting force, and using an openly gay cop could remove the original ambiguity.
- A mainstream gay cop unfamiliar with leather culture could still have a journey; provocative star choices include Chris Pratt, a female version with Sigourney Weaver, and Bradley Cooper.
