    Mardi Gras 1907

    Apologies if this has been previously posted. Just found it today. Lots (LOTS!) of great old hats. Don't forget to scroll right - it's a seriously big pic :) http://www.shorpy.com/node/12442?size=_original

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    I remember him best as Albert Riddle, the one-armed dishwasher in Robin's Nest. My kids will remember him as Charlie Bucket's Grandpa Joe.

    That's a good one. I picked it up in Rue's Movie Picks thread & watched it serialised on YouTube

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I did. Don't mind some of Kevin Smith's films. Filthy & irreverent & made on the cheap. Might be why I like John Waters films too ;) I guess I shouldn't post this yet because it hasn't been watched, but picked up All Quiet On The Western Front (1930) a couple of days ago. Keen to watch it...

    Akubra Overload

    The standard Moonstone model at the store where I ordered it has the matching hatband now. I special ordered this one, but when I got the hat and posted that picture here a few posted theirs, also with the dark band. I have to order my hats anyway because of my big head, so while I was at it...

    Slow to the party and not the colour you were after, but here's my Moonstone Stylemaster, straight from the factory.

    Wearing trilbies etc. too far back on the head?

    I think it's just trying to appropriate a particular image. I can see an on-set photograph of Steve McQueen or James Dean or some other icon briefly tipping their hat back to scratch their head and someone saying "that's IT. That's the look I'm after". And deciding to ONLY wear their hat like...

    I thought Kate Winslet in Holy Smoke was very good.

    Dialects/Accents in the Movies

    only it wasn't Chris O'Dowd delivering that line - it was a Londoner patronising him when he found out he was Irish ;)

    Dialects/Accents in the Movies

    how about James Coburn's delightful Aussie accent in The Great Escape? :lol: how about his awesome Russian in Hunt for Red October? Nailed that one . ;)

    Silent comedies

    plenty of them still stand up. I've bought a few on dvd and my family generally enjoy them too. I think it was a surprise to them that they were actually making good funny movies back then, so few people taking the time to sit down and watch them now. Most modern peoples' exposure to that...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Hop (laugh out loud funny cutesy kids movie with my son. Was great after a spate of very ordinary examples - Yogi, Gnomeo, etc) Rango (best western I've seen in years. Superb & occasionally surreal. Great witty tips-of-the-hat injected throughout, like the Fear & Loathing gag at the start...
