These are probably my three favorites for Men's Clothing Wardrobes in movies. What are yours?

Great Gatsby and James Bond are all that come to mind immediately. Sean Connery looked amazing.

Alain Delon in 'Le Samourai', Jimmy Stewart in 'Rope' and just about everything Cary Grant did. David Thewlis looked pretty damned good in 'Gangster No 1'.

The best line about a suit is in 'Withnail and I'.

+1. Alain Delon in Le Samourai is basically why I decided to start wearing suits.

Ocean's Eleven, 12, 13
A Good Year (Russell Crowe)
Match Point
The Terminal (Nixon character)
Inside Man (the one creepy politician guy)

I second most of the already recommended movies from previous posts. But I figure I'd change it up.
