Infernal Affairs has just been given a cinema release in England and I have just been to see  at a cinema in central London. Thought it very good. Look forward to the release of 2&3. Heard about a possible remake with Mr Pitt. Don't think he has the necessary physical menace in spite of Fight club the actor who plays Lau has a face like a Ninja throwing star and the under cover cop spends the film either literally or metorphorically on the shrinks couch looking like hes on rehab the film reeks threat when their on the screen ,  remember they are both in a " continuous hell" to quote the film, and remember the problem Pitt had playing Mr Black a.k.a Death himself. You need someone like Del Toro for the cop and maybe the lead guy out of Things to do in Dever when your Dead, not Walken though he would be great for the fat gang boss( sorry i forget his name) they got the looks but you would still want them on your side in a fight
The story is a great dramatic contstuct just needs careful repect, and Scorcese not to be afraid of getting dirty.
