The Landlord's Daughter - The Wicker man

Why do I have a feeling the following scene will be absent from the Wicker Man remake starring Nicolas Cage? The original, starring The Equalizer himself along with Christopher Lee, is a classic, one of a kind film. Part of its charm comes from these folksy songs throughout the movie(especially the scene where the Landlord's Daughter tries to seduce Sgt. Howie).

The original is a movie that will linger in your mind for a very long time, and I just can't image the remake--with it's CGI special effects (why?!)--can measure up.

Do yourself a favor and seek out the original, and see one of Christopher Lee's greatest performances.
