Adding THE TEN COMMANDMENTS by Cecil B. DeMille. Also Howard Hawks remade BALL OF FIRE as the 1948 musical A SONG IS BORN with Danny Kaye.
Capra did another remake -- his 1934 horseracing picture BROADWAY BILL used about one-fourth of its footage in the 1950 film with Bing Crosby entitled RIDING HIGH.
But perhaps the King of self remakes was Raoul Walsh, 3 of them in a span of just 10 years:
HIGH SIERRA in 1941 became the 1949 Western COLORADO TERRITORY
THE STRAWBERRY BLONDE in 1941 was remade as ONE SUNDAY AFTERNOON in 1948
THE 1945 war film OBJECTIVE BURMA was retooled as THE 1951 Western DISTANT DRUMS
