One last RENT film question...

Who did the hair and wigs for that movie?

Cause they took hottie Adam Pascal and turned him into Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat, the Cat of the Railway train.

I haven't been that disturbed by a hairstyle in a film since Diana Ross in THE WIZ.

ALRIGHT! I'VE FREAKING HAD IT!

NO ONE LIKES "CATS!" I GET IT!

BUT JESUS MARY AND MOSES FOR THE LOVE OF ALLAH - AT LEAST SPARE THE COSTUMES OF "CATS"! THEY WERE NOT THAT BAD!

You know that's Adam's real hair, right?

This post made me laugh really hard!

I thought that was his real hair. Maybe I was wrong.

This needed its own thread?

They took the "Ron Weasly" approach to hairstyles...All that magic and he still ended up with an afghan on his head...

Adam's hair cannot be contained in one thread.

Every other nuance of the Rent movie got its own thread, why not this?

Posted: 12/9/05 at 3:59pm

Don't get me wrong...I don't love CATS, but those were some damn fine costumes! Perfect...FOR A CAT!

I can't even discuss his Anne Heche pixie cut in the flashbacks.*







* Please note that I think Mr. Pascal is very talented and attractive...but no one did him any favors in the makeup chair for this flick!

Me too, Emcee. I keep imagining Adam in the whiskers and spandex.

Haha thats true Lizzie Curry. We need one thread for short hair, one for the long hair, one for the really long WYO hair...

He does have that lesbian toolwoman thing going on in that picture.

Don't forget the glowing hair tips at the beginning of Seasons of Love.

Oh good. Now we all know who to blame so we can hunt them down and egg their cars.

I feel like Em just put out a hit contract.

Yes robbie, he has said in interviews that his hair was long when shooting began and he and Columbus decided to leave it that way for the film. A NOVEL choice indeed! {swoon}

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 12/9/05 at 4:06pm

hehehehe.

His hair IN the movie is actually way better than it was when he got the part.

At least it's not blue.

I like to think my hair would look wonderful every day too if I had a stylist. :) I loved the long movie hair but when I saw clips of him with long hair just before the movie i thought "how on earth could he have thought that was a good idea?" Hooray for stylists :)

Heyyy, I don't think he looks like a lesbian toolwoman in the second picture.

So yeah, I'm not a huge fan of the Roger hair in some picutres (strangely mullet-esque), but I think that it works for the period and character. It IS funny that people think that it's a wig, though... it kind of does look like it could be.
