Sounds like Indy!The guy who looks like he hasn't shaved in exactly 4-5 days and his hair always looks just messed up that it looks like he doesn't care just a little.
It doesn't matter when and where they show him, he always looks the same. As if a girlfriend/wife wouldn't demand he go into the bathroom and shave before, say, a wedding or something important like that.
Either the Simpson's or Family Guy did a parody of this when people using flintlocks kept doing the recocking thing. You also get people using Glocks in movies and TV were you also hear the cocking of the hammer.
Yes, this. As a movie and tv ‘extra’ or ‘supporting artist’, I am told how to react to what’s going on, during the rehearsals before the many, takes and retakes. if The director wants reaction, they will tell you. It may feel odd, and not how you would act in real life, but it’s their vision. You have to go with it.
I also realized a counterpart to the Connected Beam. The "Invisible Tug of War." Two people using magic or the force or whatever to tug-of-war some object between them. See the lightsaber in The Last Jedi.
As someone who lived through the Miami Vice times, i can attest they made electric razors just for maintaining a precise 2 day scruff. Totally a thing in the right age group. So i assume they all have one of these in their jacket pocket.
Just watched this. Its an hour long and rips quite quickly through a load of old Hollywood tropes, all introduced by a sarcastic and self deprecating Rob Lowe.
Actors sit in a make up chair at the start of a shooting day, nursing a freshly brewed soy latte, with extra sprinkles, and a makeup Person has to ensure that they look exactly the same as they did yesterday and the day before, for continuity. It would be a logistical nightmare to work out ‘this is your day two look, no, now we need your day three look’, every morning. Better to maintain a standard appearance unless it forms part of the story.
I was actually referring to the character who looks like this in the plot every single day, regardless of what's going on in the plot.
While annoying, I want to say that it's an actual look for some men these days. At least it is in Hollywood, that permanent 5 o'clock shadow, no matter what. I can get it and am ok with it in an every day setting, but it's funny (and a bit annoying) when it's something like a post-apocalyptic setting or they're on the run in the middle of nowhere, some sort of setting where they're either not going to have access to a razor, or at least not some fancy one that's going to let them keep their perma-stubble.
