    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    For some reason it took me forty-two years to see that movie (watched it last night) and I agree it's great! Will have to check out of a few other Carpenter movies, since the only one I know well is Escape from NY. If anyone has suggestions please post. I was reading the wikipedia entry for The...

    U.S. Navy bridge coats

    It's definitely not a bridge coat. It looks like a normal peacoat with normal proportions, except for those pocket flaps and the shoulder straps. The length is normal for a post-war peacoat (these aren't as short as many people think). I'm sure you're correct to speculate it was a custom-made...

    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    Here are some on-set photos from the production of Melville's "Le Cercle Rouge" starring Delon. He wears this coat throughout the film which was clearly filmed during winter and the cold weather is evident on the screen. Here's Yves Montand behind the scenes on the same film.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    ^ Your mention of Dini/Timms reminds me that I had a big glossy coffee table book which showcased their artwork for the series which I lent to a friend who was going into animation and who never returned the book. Grrr...

    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    Here are some photos from the French crime film "Flic Story" starring Alain Delon as a police inspector. I watched this last night and it's pretty good; there's a middle third of the film which is kinda boring, but overall it's solid (and, tellingly, large parts of the movie are stuck in my head...

    You know, you're in old Germany, when...

    Not sure what this is since I don't read German but I can never resist more script/font/etc stuff.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Oh yeah, they got that series right on target, just the perfect tone. And I'd forgotten how old it is--thirty years old!!

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    I watched the first two episodes of the series last evening and was already bored with the story and found none of the characters likeable or interesting. If they all died in the third episode and the office burned down I honestly wouldn't care one bit. I only watched the second episode in case...

    Vintage Photos of Leather Jackets

    The following photo accompanied an obit in the local paper for a man named Donald Reinhart. There were no details in the obit which might give a clue to the photo, unfortunately, or anything else about the man's life. Interesting old jacket, though.

    USAF N-3B parkas - Let's talk about them!!

    There is notoriously little official information available for old USAF nylon from that period. Anyone who gets keen on old USAF nylon has to accept that there's a lot of stuff we will never know. The official USAF specs probably specified "fur" and manufacturers probably (promiscuously) used...

    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    I recently got this trenchcoat, used. It's in great condition and I've washed it up. Cotton blend shell, but it's like a microfibre and soft to the touch and extremely lightweight. Odd detailing, I'm guessing 1980s, but I like stuff like that. The silhouette is nice: when the belt it done up it...
