Best Denim In Film?

Who wore it best?

We’re showing Badlands on 23rd September by the lake at Woodberry Wetlands and it might be our favourite Denim Clad film …
It’ll be our last screening there this year … and it’s going to be a balmy lovely evening with Martin Green playing a vinyl soundtrack courtesy of Audio Gold.
Other honourable mentions/ competitors to Best Denim in Film include: 

Marlon Brandon’s 501s? in The Wild One, combined with a er, perfect Perfecto Jacket …

The Outsiders – Martin’s Sheen progency Emilio Estevez and Charlie Sheen both star …along with an uber young Tom Cruise, Patrick Swayze and Rob Lowe

Robert de Niro has some some very new looking bootcut-ish/ straight leg Levis on the poster for Taxi Driver that then look slightly more worn in and whiskered when he cuts his mohawk into his hair …

Jane Birkin wears some Serge Gainsbourg style light coloured denim in If Don Juan Was A Woman … Not Lee Cooper which was Serge’s favoured denim …

Paul Newman is effortlessly cool in Cool Hand Luke … it’s only a denim workwear jacket when actually in prison garb!

Charles Bronson doesn’t actually wear blue denim as Harmonica in the best ever western (in my humble opinion) Once Upon A Time in The West and Henry Fonda wears black surprisingly hipster tight jeans …

Audrey Hepburn wore blue jeans designed by costume designer Edith Head to sing Moon River on the fire escape – it’s not all Givenchy in Breakfast at Tiffanys

James Dean iconically wore Lee Riders with a McGregor Freezer jacket in Rebel Without a Cause but it’s in Giant that denim looks best on him – inspiring the iconic rifle over shoulders crucified image along with both Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek’s character’s looks …

Marilyn Monroe is at her acting best in The Misfits (it’s so sad …) in Levis and a Lee Jacket … Lee are doing a whole Marilyn range now inspired by the film!

We Love Film We Love Denim… Badlands is possibly the best denim in film!
