The Imitation Game, about the cracking of Enigma: an extravaganza of Fair Isle sweaters and vests! truly Fair Isle city, many appearances throughout the well-done movie ......
generally the knitwear is very good in the flick as is the plaid wool dressing-gown Turing/Cumberbatch wears at the end ......
clothes were one of this pic's strong suits .....
imagining some dialogue like "whoa sheriff you are fried" and Andy saying "baked, not fried ... you want fried you gotta see Aunt Bee, that gal's all the way in the bag. I mean to say D-runk. Pickled peach. And Barney's gone too."

Went to see Robert Siodmak's Cry of the City (1948) at the BFI this afternoon - great movie and proof that Scorcese didn't, as we say in my country 'lick it off the stones' - what was sartorially interesting was the fact that, while the mostly Italian cops and robbers wore big overcoats and DB suits wth widescreen shoulders, a bit-part photographer, a little camp and nerdy was all proto-Ivy. Patch pockets, rolled lapel, swelled edges and button down. What did it signify? Arty? eccentric?
^ The plaid travel bags involved in the 'mix-up' in the movie are Pendleton as well.
