Never Let Me Go

A New Clip from the upcoming moving Never Let Me Go is fighting to become my favorite movie.

Fantastic Mr. Fox: Style Guide

This weekend I snuck away to see Wes Anderson’s latest film, Fantastic Mr. Fox.  I will say that I have not even seen the latest Anderson films because they got too over worked for my taste.  I heard that Mr. Fox was much shorter, 90 min., and I thought I could stomach it.  I found out to my delight that the movie is excellent.  It is Mr. Anderson at his best, short, styled, and sweet.  Fantastic Mr. Fox follows Mr. Fox, played by George Clooney, as he tries to escape the fox hole he has been living in for a better life.  He dreams of a bigger and more rewarding living.  When he finally moves he is challenged by three farmers.  As the hijinks and fun begins the characters are allowed to show their own motives.  There are superb performances by Meryl Streep as Mrs. Fox and especially Jason Swartzman as their son.

Fantastic Mr. Fox is a movie to be seen by both young and old.  As I was watching the movie I became envious of the wardrobe.  These stop animation characters had fantastic style.  They were tailored and modern classic designs.  We wanted to pull out some of our favorite pieces and bring them to life.  Bergdorf Goodman has some of the characters in their windows this holiday season.

J.Crew Corduroy Jacket – Okay, so it is not double-breasted, but it is close and is a modern take on this.  Just make sure to wear it with a dark wash fit jean.

An Education: Style Guide

An Education is a fantastic movie about growing up, but more importantly finding oneself.  Not only did the film make me fall in love with Cary Mulligan, but the style made me want to clean up my own act.  We have pulled together some of our favorite looks from the 1960’s English period.

J.Crew Vest

J.Crew Suit

Allen Edmonds Shoes

An Education is a film about style and choices.  These are not the cheapest pieces, but they are all pieces that will last a long time.  You can re sole Allen Edmonds, and switch out the tie on this classic suit.  This holiday season is a good time to try to scoop up some sales and get these classic pieces into your closet.

The Guys Guide To Twilight

Everyone has heard of Twilight.  As most guys that heard about the books and movie I was hoping it would be secluded to younger girls.  That has not been the case it seems as if every woman I talk too is interested in the saga.  I will admit that I was in the theater this weekend.  Not something that I am especially proud of, but one that occurred.  I will spare the review, but will provide a guy oh how to make it through this time in Popular Culture.

The movie does provide a few really beautiful women.  Like all things horrible the men are the actors with their shirts off.  None the less the women are still beautiful.  Kristen Stewart just might be the new Natalie Portman if she chooses the right movies.  Her sidekicks are funny and provide some relief. My Twilight Tool kit includes:

  • Do not compare yourself to the men on the screen – It just is not natural
  • Do not roll your eyes after the movie, just say it was a funny movie
  • Remind yourself that it will be over in a couple of months

This too shall pass:
