FILM‚ FASHION AND TOBACCO The hero saunters in‚ the stubble causing many shadows on his face‚ his mop of hair‚ a bunch of ruffled gardens. His forehead bleeds‚ his shirt baring his chest‚ knots up just above his waist. From his endless long legs to eyes blazing grey hatred‚ the camera zooms in on his fingers.
