There are two notable film versions of "Cape Fear." The original was released in 1962, directed by J. Lee Thompson, while the more famous remake came out in 1991, directed by Martin Scorsese. Both films are adaptations of the novel "The Executioners" by John D. MacDonald, but they have distinct styles and interpretations of the story.

No, "Ides of March" is not a movie remake. It is a political thriller film released in 2011, directed by George Clooney and starring Ryan Gosling, Clooney himself, and Philip Seymour Hoffman. It is based on the play "Farragut North" by Beau Willimon.
No, "The American," starring George Clooney, is not a remake. It is an original film released in 2010, directed by Anton Corbijn, based on the novel "A Very Private Gentleman" by Martin Booth. The story follows an assassin seeking redemption while on a job in Italy. While it shares themes with other films in the thriller genre, it does not remake any specific earlier work.
I hate to say, "remake," because his English dubbing of the Japanese thriller Key of Keys was basically a parody of the genre.
