    Yet Another Teensy Jewel of a Hat

    Well, I may as well admit it...I think it's a nice looking hat. Small...but nice (I'm 7 3/8 XLO). I have two brown stingys...a Dobbs Twenty and a custom beaver by Toronto hatter Sammy Taft. Like 'em both!

    Dear Fedora Lounge,

    I'd second that.

    Calling Toronto FLers!

    Hey, I've lived in T.O. my whole life and I'm learning things from C-dot's post. Knew about some of the fabric stores, Gadabout and Dufflets, but the rest is news to me (mostly). And C-dot is right...if you're near a Dufflets, don't walk by...go in. I might add that the St. Lawrence Antique...

    Dad's many hats

    I'll watch Dr. Strangelove just to watch Sterling Hayden play General Jack D. Ripper! "Precious bodily fluids" indeed. Your father was a terrific actor.

    Brim up or Brim Down

    This thread got me thinking, so I've been trying some of my hats with the brim up. I still look goofy in most of them (in my opinion, at least) but today I wore a grey stingy brim by Robert Hall with the brim up and, lo and behold, I kind of liked it. Made me feel a bit Rocky-ish, but I...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Tombstone (1993). I always enjoy Val Kilmer's Doc Holliday and Powers Boothe's Curly Bill.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Another great one. I watch Ed Wood once in a while, usually followed by Plan 9 from Outer Space.

    Cup of tea?

    Lifelong tea drinker here. I'm a big fan of loose tea from the Marinya estate in Kenya or, alternately, from the Margaret's Hope estate in Darjeeling. I also enjoy pretty well any Assam tea or Yunan black. There is such a wonderful variety of teas!

    Northwest Passage...another one of my favourites on TCM!

    Amazing.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    I found Terra Nova quite disappointing, unfortunately. On the other hand, I came across the complete season one of Get Smart in a thrift store...so that's what I'm watching now.

    Musician's hats

    This is a shot of Louis Armstrong getting fitted for a hat by Toronto "hatter to the stars" Sammy Taft.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    But at least it gave us the great line: "Machete don't text."

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Loved the Iron Sky trailer...Moon Nazis! I've been trying to find a (reasonably priced) DVD of the 1993 German film, Stalingrad. A terrific film and one that, again, no-one I know has actually seen (besides me). My VHS copy has deteriorated, unfortunately. I had the same problem with the...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I want to see that one...the Norwegians won me over with Dead Snow.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Absolutely agree. One of my favourite movies...beautifully photographed and well acted. Harvey Keitel played the obsessive belligerent officer perfectly. It is such an under-viewed movie that I was starting to think I was the only one who had seen it! Unfortunately, a lot of my favourites are...
