What was the hat that Kenneth Branagh ...

wore in Shackleton? I believe this was a three part A&E series from around 2001 or 2002. It looks like he was wearing some sort of Aussie type oilcloth hat. I could not find a very large photo of Kenneth wearing it, but have included a small photo of it. I thought I would ask in case anybody remembers seeing it. BTW, this series was excellent - quite an adventure.

So, no replies?

From the picture, and from learning more about hats, it looks like it may be a felt fedora rather than oil cloth, but I don't know. I thought somebody else here might have seen the series - it was highly acclaimed when it originally showed. I just thought when I watched it that it was a very good looking hat.

I'm almost positive that is a fur felt. It does not look at all like an aussie oil cloth hat but a 1930's styled fedora.

I think Harrison Ford should check that top shelf in his closet to see if anything's missing.

Shackleton

What about when they crossed South Georgia's mountain to get to the whalers on the other side in the middle of a blizzard and winter?

How did God make guys like that?
