E is derived from the Greek letter epsilon which is much the same in appearance (Ε, ε) and function. The Semitic probably first represented a praying or calling human figure (hillul jubilation), and was probably based on a similar Egyptian hieroglyph that was pronounced quite differently. In Semitic, the letter was pronounced /h/ (in foreign words also /e/), in Greek became Εψιλον (Epsilon) with the value /e/. Etruscans and Romans followed this usage. Arising from the Great Vowel Shift, English usage is rather different, namely /i:/ in "me" or "bee", whereas other words like "bed" are closer to Latin or Continental European usage.

Not sure if this counts as a remake, but Terry Gilliam's "12 Monkeys" was better than the French short film "La Jetee."
