Bogie in Big Sleep and Maltese Falcon
Nicholson and partner in Chinatown
Clint Eastwood in the Sergio Leone Triology
Jimmy Stewart in Mr. Smith goes to Washington and Shop Around the Corner
Takima Shimura in Ikiru
Henry Fonda in The Grapes of Wrath
Tsutomu Yamazaki in Tampopo
Jean-Paul Belmondo in Breathless
Cary Grant in Penny Serenade (who SAYS he don't look good in a fedora!)
Paul Simonon in various Clash videos (does that count as film?)

That's pretty cool! I remeber being inspired by Bonanza and other tv westerns in that one of my first hats was a little brown cotton cowboy hat.

Alvy Moore sported a spiffy flattop hairdo as one of Marlon Brando's sidekicks in The Wild One

John Wayne's cavalry hats, Clint Eastwood's spaghetti western hats (with poncho), Zorro's hat:rolleyes: , And then Indy's hat. All those before I ever saw bogie or other movies.

I'm definitely one of the Indy guys. That hat brought me into this crazy world, but I didn't think about wearing one daily until after seeing Casablanca. Those guys were really stylin' back then, and there's no reason we shouldn't be now ;)

Familiar Face
Couldn't dowload from a DVD.

Just watched De-Lovely (Cole Porter bio), and all of the men dressed slick. That said, I'll pay good money to see one of you "dames" in the sailor suit from the "Anything Goes" number.

That cute hat and the little white satin miniskirt...I gotta go. This won't take long.

Alanis Morissette, Cheryl Crow and Elvis Costello have numbers in the movie. Honest. Let's just say that they were born in the wrong era and two of them are just heartstoppers.

Here's Cheryl Crow (Begin the Beguine):

Oh, yeah. There's a band, too.

Alanis Morissette (Let's Do It)

Oh, yeah...also starring some guy from "A Fish Called Wanda" and a Kentucky fan.

That's right, pgoat. And the Brit agent--Hamilton, I think--is wearing a beauty of a stingy in the early stages of Live and Let Die. A pity he then got knifed.
