Sleeper by Woody Allen has a scene where he shaves with a straight while his reflection moves differently similar to the classic Marx brothers scene.
In the opening scene of The Great Debators a man pulls out a straight to attack another man. He says, "I'm gonna cut off yo head!"
I just caught what may very well be the best straight razor scene ever! In the musical Night and Day in which Cary Grant plays Cole Porter (I didn't catch the beginning as I was merely surfing), in a mansion around a Christmas tree as folks were exchanging gifts a fully bearded gent is holding a handful of razors says, "Every Christmas I receive four or five razors. This year, seven."
Then Cary Grant hands him another and says, "Here, make it eight."
"In the Time of the Butterflies" Salma Hayek giver her father a straight shave as he lies in bed after being ruffed up. Don't let the title throw you off this was a rather good movie about the Dominican Republic and its fight for independence. On a personal note- lucky son of a gun!

A film called, "The Savage is Lose" in which George C. Scott, his wife and their young son are marooned on an island shows Scott shaving straight style with a pair of scissors. Good luck, George!
I just caught a scene in a 1948 movie called, "I Remember Mama." Papa is stropping his razor with the strop hooked over the door of the oven as they think about how to tell their daughter they chloroformed the cat. Good form except if I saw what I think I saw, it looked like he was turning the blace on the edge instaed of the spine. You'd think in 1948, he'd have known better.
The Hungarian movie Sose Halunk Meg (translation: We Never Die) has a scene where the two main characters visit a barber shop. The younger guy is being preped by a woman for a shave ... you also see her strop the razor etc. Great movie!

I saw part of a documentary in class on Wednesday, Moro no Brasil. It is a Finnish guy that goes to Brazil in search of Samba.
They have a quick scene, no more than 5 seconds where in an outdoor barbershop, a Brazilian is getting a Straight shave.
