    Heroes - Cold Snap - 3/23/09

    Opening scene Danko lathers up with a brush then drops a 7 AM blade into a Weishi razor. Looks like he almost sliced his cheek when he stops the razor as his security system goes off.

    I saw that episode too, and was ready to post it here. Funny how this is the first place we think of huh? Anyway I would also add that his lather looked quite awful. He wasn't gonna get a good shave anyway so it's a good thing his alarm went off!!! :happy102

    I didn't freeze it, but I suspect the shot where the alarm goes off, there was no blade in the razor. When he wiped the cream off, it looked like pretty clean underneath.

    I also like the way they juxtaposed Bennet hoping into Petrelli's limo with spots of tissue in the next scene.

    Soylent Green is people!!!

    I may be mistaken but doesn't Chuck Heston shave with a DE, sans cream, in the beginning of the film?

    Cheers,

    Just watched a Humphrey Bogart movie called "Black Legion". At around the 60 minute mark Bogey calls up his buddy Cliff Moore (portrayed by actor Joe Sawyer), Cliff answers the phone with lather on his face and he is holding what looks to be a 3 piece D/E in his hand, he tells Bogey he is getting ready for a date.

    Valkyrie 2008 Tom Cruises character used a DE. I saw it before I was a wet shavers so I couldn't tell you what kind it was.

    Anyone that followed the Japanese Show "Black Lagoon" Main character is shown briefly while "adjusting" to his new lifestyle, getting a straight shave in open air with what looked like no running water.

    Not sure about this one but I think Roman Holiday had a scene with Greg Peck shaving but I'm not sure (Side note Audrey Hepburn is such a hottie)

    The recent movie The Invention of Lying, when the hero's best friend is urging to him to clean himself up and make one last try at winning the girl, he hands him a DE razor of some kind.

    Remember the shaving in the airplane restroom gag in Airplane?

    Recently saw the 2004 movie Starsky & Hutch, based on the 70s TV show. There's a brief view of Hutch (Owen Wilson) shaving with a DE, which I noticed because he's holding it all wrong, handle completely vertical. Probably no blade in it, and just scraping the foam off his face.
