Let’s see, checking notes, reading summary. Pausing. Reading again. Cross-referencing. Realization is slowly dawning. Maybe I Do is not a period piece! It is not a period piece and features white fox fur! I guess the math eventually caught up, and a new release slipped through a very tiny crack. And landed with a dull… Read More Furs on Film – Maybe I Do (2023)
We continue our long-running series on “films where Edwige Fenech is pursued by a killer while wearing fur.” If I had a nickel for every time this has happened… I’d have 2 nickles, but it’s kinda strange it’s happened twice. So, be sure to suggest The Case of the Bloody Iris as your next film… Read More Furs on Film – The Case of the Bloody Iris (1972)
You’re releasing a film in 2000 with a character that wears real fur… and it’s not a period piece! How can you justify this affront to all that is good and decent in the world? Easy, the fur-wearer is literally the Devil. Bedazzled – The Film Based on the 1967 film of the same name,… Read More Furs on Film – Bedazzled (2000)
So, we’re doing this, the first faux update on the site. But, some may protest, some of it surely was real. If, for some reason, that is important to you, feel free to cite sources. I found the standard sanctimonious denials anyone would give for a not-a-period-piece film heavily featuring fur fashion released in 1996.… Read More Furs on Film – 101 Dalmatians (1996)
The Happy Hooker is a 1975 film mostly known for spawning two sequels with ever-decreasingly renowned actresses in the lead role. For the first one, we get Lynn Redgrave to add an air of credibility to the proceedings. I’ll probably get around to the sequels later, maybe a two-for-one, but this one can stand on… Read More Furs on Film – The Happy Hooker (1975)
Confession time. Well, confession outside of this entire website. That would be my misspent youth raised by toy commercials. One, in particular, is relevant to this update. It’s funny; there were only “two” seasons of G.I. Joe, but 96 episodes total. I spent most of them with a terrible secret: my favorite character was The… Read More Furs on Film – G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)
There were very few instances of my ’90s viewing habits and my interest in fur fashion crossing over, but the Danger: Diabolik episode of MST3K (1013, the SciFi series finale) certainly hit like a truck. So, let’s take a quick look at why I missed about 2 minutes of the final riffs of the season.… Read More Furs on Film – Danger: Diabolik (1968)
Today we answer the question: why did the 2021 version of Madame Claude so prominently feature coyote fur coats? Was it because the film’s costume department meticulously analyzed the fur-wearing habits of high-class ’70s escorts and cross-referenced the socioeconomic status of the average Parisian citizen during the decade in question? No. It’s because the 1977… Read More Furs on Film – Madame Claude (1977)
Fun story, I initially “discovered” this film in the mid-80s while flipping channels and landing exactly where my… budding… interest in furs would best be served: the dyed fox scene. Back then, in the age of analog cable, I had to look up the movie’s name, which I subsequently forgot. While I never forgot the… Read More Furs on Film – The American Success Company (1980)
Mentioned I was aware of this back when I posted I, Tonya. This is the film where Margot wears the good stuff, not some crappy rabbit jacket. According to Rotten Tomatoes, that may be the only good thing about Terminal. This film is also notable because it was released in 2018 and is not a… Read More Furs on Film – Terminal (2018)
