What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
One of my earliest conversions from way back when. A Resistol Stagecoach in Chestnut. These days, though, if it starts out a Western I try to keep it Western if I have enough hat after reblocking. Another noir pic with my Stagecoach -

Western, anyone?
A lot of character in that one, Mark. I've got a Dobbs 20 fedora that looks 'lived in' like that. It looks like a working man's hat from back in the day. I didn't change it. I left it as is. -

That was a good movie. Classic Noir by Hitchcock. Joseph Cotton was really convincing in that one. I agree about the hats. The '40s, especially in film noir, was the best era for fedoras imo. -

If you ever get the chance, this one is well worth watching. "Hangmen Also Die", (1943), again with Brian Donleavy. It's directed by Fritz Lang, a classic film noir director. The movie centers around the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich, a vicious NAZI henchman. I'll just leave that there. -

I saw that one a few times and found it again on ROKU. I first saw John Payne in an old Christmas movie from 1947, "Miracle on 42nd Street", which also starred a young child actress Natalie Wood. -
