Thanks Bama. In that shot Nolte is wearing hat #2, which is very nice. The bow reminds me of a Dobbs 20/40. I’ll have to record it again just for some hat shots. Oddly many camera shot show the hats very well with all 4 fedoras well represented.Good flick, B. May have been covered here, cover it again. I just googled Mullholland falls and hit images.
The movie was loosely based on these guys, the LAPD "Hat Squad", a group of take no $#!+ super investigators that left quite a legacy. Two of them went on to become judges. Their history is worth a look.
Thanks Greg. I saw that on the movie credits too.
Good movie. I have it on my IPad, watch it on Saturdays when I have to work, oops, did I say that!?
I'm sure I have seen that one, but honestly don't recall at this time. Looks like an all star cast there though. How about Peck's hat? Cool huh!
Well worth it. You're on the reservation so you can't go down into the canyon without being on a Navajo tour or other Navajo guide. It's 2,000 ft down from the rim. I would recommend hiring a Navajo guide & tell him/her the kinds of things you want to see. Plenty of petroglyphs & ruins, photographic opportunities are everywhere. The tour busses are like crowded cattle calls & they don't venture off the beaten path. There are still about a dozen Navajo families living in the canyon.
That's great advice, thanks HJ. We'll try to do our homework before going.
Besides petroglyphs & ruins there are lots of Indian Paintbrush, Bristlecone & Pinyon Pine to see & photograph. Ansel Adams did a lot of photography in the canyon including his famous photograph of the White House.
A Spaghetti Western from back in the era of gratuitous nudity, as I recall.
Yes, and innuendo as well I suppose....I can see it now....Jenny walks in on him when he is bathing in a tin tub....he covers his manhood with that enormous hat.....and she says...."NOW I see why you wear such a BIG HAT!!!!".....
