Midwest Boater said:i was just watching millers crossing and thinking all their hats were a mess , it seems they didnt pay the kind of attention to their hats when they were more common as we do today.
Alot depends on who is wearing it too, i bet Bogie could make a ballcap look cool.

Big Baby Macoy said:I love Miller's Crossing but I have to agree with you. Not only where the hats an absolute mess but most of the men's suit were a disaster. Most were far to big, the shoulders were a mess and none of the seams came ever close to lining up. Also many of the the ties, shirts and especially the shoes......but, still a great moment at times

Looking at old family photos of my grandfather's and great-grandfather's,.....they all looked a mess also, even when they got dressed up! Clothes just didn't seem to fit just right, their suit pants even looked either a tad too long or too short,......and the hats, my gosh, it looks like they wore them every danged day!
Midwest Boater said:well said HP ill bet the garments and the way they are worn in this movie (messy as they are) are closer to real life than some of the other movies about this time than some would like to think. btw fftopic: its a really good movie.

Mario said:Shortening? Shortening up as in cutting down?
From the Book Of Rules:
"You must not, never ever, under no circumstances, cut down a Cavanagh Edge!"

Hope I got you wrong...

:arated: Indeed! Bogie's the reason I got into fedoras in the first place, and these pics show why.Matt Deckard said:Just some amazing pics!
