    That Was Him/Her?

    Here, here; brilliant performance. Actors may dissolve into their characters; that is wonderful acting, though not always the point. Some might argue that the point of acting is to entertain. Cary Grant and some other actors still always entertain, even while maintaining that consistent...

    Rules on Shoe color?

    I agree entirely!:eusa_clap Be limited only by your boldness and imagination! Some of my shoes, I wear with every color. I have a pair of high brogues in an almost taupe color that I bought in Venice. I have worn them with jeans, white pants, a cream suit, navy suits, gray suits, khakis, and...

    How to make new clothes look dirty? Help?

    Fuller's earth for dirt. Fray edges with a wire brush. Tea stains are a great idea. I believe that is how khaki came into being.

    Brideshead Revisited... again?

    Costumes! http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2008/07/20/movies/20080720_BRIDESHEADREVISITED_SLIDESHOW_index.html The Brits always get the costuming right. There was a nice article on this in yesterday's NYT.

    Cocktail parties: Country-Style

    Agreed 100%. I am also really uncomfortable with the term "Redneck," which to most, is a very pejorative term. I do wish you had chosen better words. it seems like a really harsh judgment to make on people you hardly know. People, all people, never cease to amaze me. Human beings in all...

    I Wanna Be Like... Trends & Film.

    Agreed! Though, we have that film to thank for Lauren's career that came after. He has done much to keep classic styles on the shelves through a whole lot of weirdness that followed.

    I Wanna Be Like... Trends & Film.

    Clark Gable did not wear an undershirt and sales of the T-shirt plummeted (and sales of deodorant sky-rocketed! -OK, I can't back that up.) Bogart wore the trench and trenches were immortalized. Ralph Lauren dressed 1974’s “Great Gatsby” and his entire career was made. Indiana Jones...

    Suspender Buttons: Inside or Outside?

    You can wear a belt with suspender buttons on the outside. It's done all of the time. Pants riding up with properly fitting suspenders is a function of the pants not being tailored harmoniously with their use; high, almost ultra high, rise pants being more condusive toward staying in place and...

    "Doctor Who," He's Back and it's About Time!

    The episodes in The Library were amazing; the best since "Blink" in my humble estimation. No Who next year. They're on break until 2010. Except for four "Christmas Special-like" movies.

    A breakdown of Fedora Loungers by sex, location, age and marital status

    I would listen to Rufus if I were you. Your act is getting very old.

    What makes you feel vintage?

    That was a general statement Cameo; it wasn't directed at you. :)

    New Bond Film - Quantum Of Solace

    That trailer looks rather wonderful, stylish, interesting, edgy. I'm digging it.

    Classy cars

    Well, I don't know how classy it is, though it is a classic design; here's me and what I call, my little spy car.

    The Prisoner

    I bought the complete DVDs. Some of those episodes are classic. There is so much going on in this show, it has been so influential to what followed. This show was always intriguing and never boring. It was one of the finest television shows ever made.

    What happened to TCM?

    Ah, there's the rub! Personally, I cut it off at The Godfather, but that's just me. I once made an argument with cutting it off at "Lawrence of Arabia."
