    1930-40's OVIATT'S NECK TIE EXCELLENT CONDITION

    Roberto is one of the very few vintage clothing dealers from whom I've bought things directly, at full price. His eye is impeccable.

    Time Marches On: Except in the Field of Cosmetic Surgery

    It's ironic that Demi Moore's clearly talented plastic surgeon, Dr. Brian Novack, is apparently not Board certified.

    1930-40's OVIATT'S NECK TIE EXCELLENT CONDITION

    Roberto Isola: a great guy with a great pencil mustache! I first met him years ago through Ben McGinty. (Do you know Ben, seabass? He used to be one of Southern California's best vendors of vintage menswear.)

    The Artist

    Not sell a lot of tickets, but enough. By Hollywood standards, "The Artist" was not an expensive film to make. The Weinstein Company has spent a chunk of money promoting it ... but even then, its worldwide box office take has made up for the costs. U.S. grosses thus far (about $28...

    The Artist

    . But even the French can't deny that "The Artist"s musical score was quite good! This little piece perfectly conveys the fantasy of breezy '20s Hollywood: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glpKknHtisI&feature=related And here's the music from the opening scene's 'movie-within-a-movie', the...

    The Artist

    ... and the French realize this. On their own news website blogs ("Le Monde", "Le Figaro", etc.), they're complaining that Hollywood would only give the 'Best Picture' award to a French film that isn't an intellectual masterpiece, was not filmed in France but in Los Angeles, and doesn't have...

    Formal Wear Primer

    Not great photos, but the best I could find. Same with the tuxedos: they have their problems, but they're better than any of the others seen at the Oscars last night.

    The Artist

    Executive producer Harvey Weinstein has announced that he will expand "The Artist"s distribution to 2,000 U.S. theaters this Friday.

    WTB: green vintage tie

    No more views of it. Not a pic of me, and not my tie. My guess is that it's from the 1930s.

    Time Marches On: Except in the Field of Cosmetic Surgery

    That said, Demi Moore's facial plastic surgery results are incredibly good.

    The Artist

    Edward, here's one more comment (the last, I promise) from the news website: "'The Artist' was popular [with Academy voters] because it was different and got the oscar for that. Hopefully it won't become a tradition."

    The Artist

    I think they mean the film's low grosses indicate that not a lot of people have seen it ... because it doesn't grab their interest. The "crime", they seem to think, is in awarding a Best Picture Oscar to a movie that they don't want to see. I won't post any more of these comments. Y'all get...

    The Artist

    The comments continue to flow in. Who knew that a movie as innocuous as "The Artist" could inspire such hatred? "If I wanted to see a silent movie, I would rent an original." "BIack & White AND silent, too!? Isn't that cute? The Hollywood kids have found themselves an antique in the...

    The Artist

    . On one very popular Internet news website, "The Artist"s Oscar wins have given rise to nearly 900 comments, most of them highly negative. Some samples: “You pay $8 to sit in a movie theater with no sound .....great, I get to listen to people sneezing and coughing...what next...no picture...

    BOTH SIDES OF THE TWEED! - Show us your tweed suits, sport coats and pants

    Merci beaucoup, Paul. Did you know that, when I was a kid, I used to spend summers in Belgium? My mother's family owned and lived in Kasteel Cleydael, which is in between Hemiksem and Aartselaar, near Antwerp. It's now a golf club...
