In Cold Blood has a brief shaving scene.
In Bram Stokers Dracula with Gary Oldman, Keanu Reeves uses a straight, cuts himself and Gary licks the blade.. Nice.....
The insane weasel in "who framed Roger Rabbit" wields a straight, not for shaving though.
Also noticed that in one of those old Agatha Christie tv-films Hercule Poirot (David Suchet, of course) is seen leaving Geo F Trumpers. Many brushes and a strop is seen on screen.
And all this time I thought I was the only one on the planet who had seen that movie. I haven't read this entire thread so forgive me if this has been mentioned. Tombstone, Doc Holiday gets a straight shave, is interupted but returns and the exchange went something like
Doc: "barber"
Barber: "yessir"
Doc: "you may proceed suh"
In "The Untouchables" there is a scene wher Al Capone (De Niro) is getting a shave from a barber with a straight.
Cool, not mentioned yet! I don't recall the name of the movie but it stars Kevin Bacon. He is sent to prison unjustly and the warden cuts his achilles tendons with a str8 razor. It cripples him for life/ rest of film. Do I get a winky button for 21 pages worth of scanning?
