Off the Hanger: Hill Street Blues
Pretty revolutionary show for its day and the styling of Bruce Weitz character on Hill Street Blues set the stage for the plain clothes hardcore TV cop image.
Sweatshirt – Warehouse
Hat – USN black wool watch cap
Canvas Gloves – White Ox elastic band chopped off of course

Original TV Foodies: Yan Can Cook
It’s very likely Martin Yan could be the sole source of my lifelong obsession with Asian food (furthered more recently hanging with my friend Jeff). Back when I first started watching Yan Can Cook, he was one of only a handful of Master Chefs on the planet. Dazzling knife skills combined with an equally [...]

Rex Ray
Caught a doc on artist/designer Rex Ray on PBS last night (produced by a Denverite so might have been local-only). Interesting story mostly for his practical approach to making and selling art. His hybrid fine art/graphic design style is just as at home in galleries as it is on take home work to be sold [...]
Off the Hanger: Gump
Really solid styling in this movie. Re-watch just for the consistent look Forrest keeps from leg brace days to telling bench stories. Also reminded me of the amount of CG work that was added to the film (looks dated now) but I think blazed the trail of thinking for its integration into all genres.

Off the Hanger: Treasure of the Sierra Madre
My first introduction to this film was by a high school geology teacher that would throw it in during downtimes in the class schedule (which seemed to be more often than one would think). It was always a crowd favorite. A fabulous film with great life lessons like gold can ruin your soul and that [...]

Tulpan
Finally caught Tulpan the other night on instant play. It might help if a person grew up around ranching to really appreciate the film, but I do think most of it taps into broad, general human experiences to which everyone can relate. Uncommon looks at family life, relationships, career struggles, and personal identity and [...]
