Fresh Lettuce.

A bad haircut sucks, because you literally gave someone money to make you look worse.

Samuel L. Jackson has worn a crazy range of bad hair – albeit fake – in a lot of movies, and I love the above piece hanging at ITA, where I do casting workshops. These are just 20 styles from his 150+ films.

Hanging next to Samuel are hair and facial styles for the other most prolific actor: Gary Oldman.

I’m fascinated by these, and stumbled upon one more online: all of the suits worn by Robert De Niro in Casino. Hey, I just realized a nice irony: I’m doing a De Niro scene from Casino at ITA in a couple weeks. It’s the only one in which he isn’t in a suit. (Pecsi says to him, “Look at you. Half the time you’re running around in your house looking like John Barrymore in a pink friggin’ robe.” I’ll be in a robe, though not a pink one.)
