Great photo, great film... I was thinking the same thing during the scene when he was practicing in his backyard. "Hmm, nice jeans"... They were Lees if I recall correctly.

Agreed, his lees when he's practicing in his backyard are fucking awesome.

[e] took two really shitty screencaps from my shitty version I have.

I feel like Nirvana, especially Kurt Cobain really personified "Iconic Denim" and deserve a spot on this thread!

Tore this out from a copy of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest I picked up at a bookstore in Laos.

Jack Nicholson as Randle McMurphy, repping some very currently-superdenim-fad shit:

Nicholson's jeans are so cool in that movie.

Jack wears Lee's in that movie.

I don't remember seeing Neil Young's jeans in here...this is the back cover of After The Goldrush...I think it inspired a million patches...

no dear dr he wears levis in that picture.

but he waers a lee 101j in five easy pieces, and levis pants too.

I dont doubt you're right Fardin, but I'm sure i've seen him in Lee's, maybe in The Shining? Not sure. Seen most of his movies dozens of times, used to be a Nicholson nut back in the eighties. Especially love Easy Rider and Prizzi's honour.

My fav denim movie though has to be Badlands with Martin Sheen, with Hud (Paul newman) comin' in second.

[fardin]

yes maybe in shining.

he is one of that all time great!

one of my fav denim movie is giant with dean. lots of nice work shirt and lees going on, but also grapes of rath ( what an awesome movie), and so many westerns of the 30s 40s and 50s.

I tried to find that Neil Young to post here... Never got it tho

I always wondered what kind of jeans they are... The beltloops are tiny.

Any guesses?

Ok some of these stretch the meaning of iconic a bit, but good for a few laughs

Bad ass - and he's wearing an A-2 flight jacket
