Actually watching 'Stagecoach' as we speak going crazy over the costume and the monobrows and the word 'U.S marshal'. So yeah if you haven't guessed already its all about the cowboys and girls. I have also added labels so you can search my blog, don't know how far they will go back though. 
Was mean't to go to Leicester today to photograph a friend's FMP however I'm far too ill and have spent far too long in the doctors waiting room. Bad news aside I am going to see Horace Andy next week. 

WHERES THAT JOE BUCK?
























Midnight Cowboy (1969)
"t’s nice to see a man take on this sort of role. John Voight (Brangie’s dad) plays Joe Buck, a naive Texas dishwasher who heads north in hopes of becoming a kept man in New York City. He packs his boots, hops on a bus, and sets up shop in a seedy hotel in Times Square. On his first trick he’s the one who ends up paying and Joe quickly learns that the world’s oldest profession isn’t as glamorous as it seems.
He needs money, so he starts pounding the pavement looking for rich old ladies that need a little sexual healing. Instead he meets Enrico “Ratso” Rizzo, a crippled crook who sees Joe as an easy mark. Dustin Hoffman’s performance as Ratso is so believable and greasy that you can almost smell his B.O. coming off of the screen. The two loners become friends and then accomplices. They’ve got champagne daydreams of moving to Florida and living like kings; But unfortunately neither of them is very good at hustlin’ and New York winters are pretty damn unforgiving. Midnight Cowboy is an excellent film with flawless performances from Voight and Hoffman, and a poignant look at two guys just trying to make it.
Midnight Cowboy is the first X rated film to win the Oscar for Best Picture. I thought it was pretty tame by today’s standards…"


As soon as I saw Nudie, I thought of good ol' Joe Buck. And wondered if Ann Roth (the costume designer) was inspired by him. Either way Roth is a badman who is known for being able to dress prostitutes.  As you all know everything is about sex,pretty much. So to be able to dress characters for that blatenet factor while getting across their persona must be so fun. Midnight Cowboy is one of my favorite if not favorite film ever.

How many of y'all know about little Nudie Cohn?. 
Well "Nudie's suits have been worn by just about everyone who is anyone in the world of Country/Rock music. Simply put, he made Country cool with his one-off original creations that bedazzled a long list of diverse celebs– John Wayne, Gene Autry, George Jones, Elvis, Cher, John Lennon, Ronald Reagan, Elton John etc. etc. To own a Nudie is to own something special; collected by fashion and music hounds.
The man behind the amazing rhinestone-studded, hand-embroidered suits was none other than Mr. Nudie Cohn– arguably, the larger-than-life 5-foot-7 Russian Rhinestone Cowboy is the most influential and innovative fashion designer and tailor to ever bless the world of Country music.  And he couldn’t stop at clothing– he put his Midas Touch on everything around him– especially his customized fleet of Nudie-fied GM cruisers that he used to promote his LA based Nudies Rodeo Tailors shop on Lankershim Blvd.  Of the original 18 cars, the whereabouts of only 9 are known today."
