    +1 it is a great show. Also there is a huge gilette sign above the boardwalk. Also in Leatherheads the character played by John Krasinski is a spokesperson for GEM razors. And most recently in "the office" american version (andy's play) focuses on an amatuer production of Sweeney Todd and includes several straights.

    There is a pretty convincing straight shave by Jeff Daniels as George Washington in the A&E TV movie The Crossing. It seems a bit easy, but as I recall, the razor looked fairly authentic and we see him shave a good bit of his face.

    I just saw this movie yesterday, not really expecting the straight razor scene. VERY interesting. I love Dali and the surrealists.

    I don't know if anyone's mentioned this one yet, but in the film "Defiance" there's a scene in the Jewish refugee camp where one of the escapees is shaving another one with a straight-razor.

    Not a movie, but last night on the show Fringe there was a scene with a man stropping a razor and then shaving his head with it. He seemed to actually be stropping properly too.

    Henry Fonda receives a shave from a barber, who palm strops, in "My Name is Nobody".

    In "Lust for Life" Kirk Douglas plays Van Gogh. He cuts his ear off with a straight razor. It is not shaving but a tragic figure.



    Sorry guys this might be in the wrong thread. Just noticed it.
