a copy, it can be a 21st century version inspired by the original.
However the timing is important. So, if you choose a scene that's 46
seconds long it should be in the general area of 46 seconds, the
particular shots within that scene, the edit, are how you decide to
make them.

shoot (scenes or shots) or what footage you might have that will fit.
