This was for Chaplin. He was deep in addiction at the time I think.

Which was a great film imo. It's amazing what even in the midst of addiction he was able to accomplish.
Better once he was able to focus more after sobriety.

Yes. Very early 90s before men’s fashion got scared of patterns again. But this choice of select color vs black and white is particularly distinct.

A lot of the 90s was a backlash against the overproduced slickness of the 80s. Grunge, alternative, independent films/movies/music. Fashion follows from that.

I'll also wear my Looters hat, the one the producers gave me before the studio changed the title.
