new dubbings of old movies

[spoRv]

I'm just watching the previously "lost" (at least in Italy, according to Rai Movie) debut film of Peckinpah, "The Deadly Companions".

So, the Italian dubbing is modern. I found it inappropriate, dunno why... maybe because they used "wrong" voices, and/or modern words/terms which seems out of place for an almost 60yrs old film...

Have you experienced a recent dubbing of an old film? If so, what do you think?

Oh, boy! Yes it has happened in France, too.
- Jaws: for the multichannel remix. Awful! At least, the Blu-ray includes both, so we have the original mono dub.
- E.T.: for the 2002 Special Edition. Even the limited edition DVD of the original cut has the redub. The Blu-ray fixes that.
- Duel: I'm not so familiar with this one. I hear there were 3 dubs. One for TV cut, one for original theatrical cut, one multichannel remix.

I'm aware of very few redubbing here in Italy - for example, Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Still, didn't know of first dubbing of old movies like the one in the first post; curious to know more about both - new and redone.
