Yes, I thought the spin doctors got at it just a little bit.I saw it a few weeks back as well. I found even the "bad guys" came across as "regular guys". Everyone just had a job to do and they were servants to their ambitious plotting masters. Perhaps Steven was trying to thaw the Cold War.

Me, too. This movie and "The Male Animal" (with Henry Fonda, Olivia Dehavilland, and Jack Carson) are my two favorite films for men's attire. Not only that, though: this is the only film that makes it seem perfectly reasonable and justifiable to want to do violence to a man in a wheelchair.I managed to see the 1942 movie 'The Man Who Came to Dinner' again after several years of not making time to see it. Of course, THIS time I noticed the hats as well as the dialogue. Wow! So many hats with character in that movie. Aside from the bowler worn by Grant Mitchell at the beginning of the film, every other hat appeared to be well-worn and actually a part of each of the characters. The diamond bash in Richard Travis' hat seemed both casual and deliberate, and Jimmy Durante's heavily handled fedora looked like it had been with him for quite a while. It was great to see the movie after so many years, but even more fun to notice things I'd never noticed before.
Yea! That one caught my attention. I wonder who made all these hats for the film. Tim Burton knew what he was doing when he was making this.that first hat is fantastic ... I'd love to know what that is
I'm not 100% certain, but I believe the wardrobe worn by Michael Keaton, and certainly by Kim Basinger and Jack Nicholson, were made specifically for them for the movie. Everything else probably came from Warner Bros.' wardrobe department warehouse, or was borrowed or rented.Yea! That one caught my attention. I wonder who made all these hats for the film.
