Kalifornia

Caught this '93 "thriller" on HBO yesterday. I had never heard of it before. It's got Juliette Lewis and Brad Pitt back when they were dating I think. Also, David Duchovny and Michelle Forbes (who now plays Maryann on True Blood) played a "yuppie" couple, but they were kind of edgy, wore black and leather mostly. I could relate to their strange interest in serial killers. Also, I figured it would be a winner with Juliette Lewis in it, right?

Turns out, in Kalifornia David Duchovny plays a writer who likes to fuck, so clearly playing a writer who likes to fuck in Californication is a huge stretch for him. 

This movie was so rad though. Not because it was good or because Brad Pitt kills a lot of stuff while rocking an awesome beard (which was great), but the 1993-ness of it all means their wardrobe is very... 2009? So I collaged:

Here's one for Carrie's wardrobe, played by Michelle Forbes... Very black, gray, city slick. [Click the image if it gets cut off on your computer, I don't know how to get the images to automatically resize to the blog's width]

Here's one for down-home Adele, played by Juliette Lewis. High waisted florals, denim, tube tops/bandeaus

Sexy men-folk...
