    My first big impression of using a straight razor...Sweeny Todd-The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, with Johnny Depp. saw it years ago but just deciding to pick it up now. Iguess it really planted a seed.
    Most recently however, the main character in Boardwalk Empire (HBOs period drama set in 1920's Atlantic City) was shown shaving, however he was holding it with the blade totally perpendicular to his face!!!
    And yes as stated above i saw the scene in "Skyfall" as well. Sweet maybe when all the guys see that Bond uses one, more people will jump on board. I mean comon, whos cooler than Bond, and he does it.

    Tony Curtis in 'The Great Race". Nice scene with Natalie Wood.

    Shaving with facial hair is like a golfcourse. It's a challenge of rough and fairways. You are the skilled greenskeeper of your face?

    Hmmm i wonder if he straight shaves. if they both do, then i dont see how anyone could decide not to. Throw Chuck Norris into that mix and you'll just have a solid threesome of manliness.

    Yup, James bond indeed shaves with a straight in Skyfall, and he has a brush and cream in a bowl! Saw it last night and nearly jumped out of my seat when I saw that scene, always knew bond was a straight/DE kind of guy haha.
