I must say I find this thread to be mildy surprising. If you look at classic films - when do you ever see a Cary Grant, a Jimmy Stewart or a Humphrey Bogart etc remove his coat when he drives a car? In fact those guys never even removed their hats let alone their coats. In any case, you had better be at least wearing a waistcoat underneath otherwise you might as well take your trousers and shoes off as well.Originally Posted by Sator
But aren't moviestars supplied with more than 1 outfit and a barrage of wardrobe staff and bootlickers, just in case the one they're wearing aren't telegenic anymore?Originally Posted by acidicboy
Grant and Astaire wore their own clothes. I am sure that Grant wore the same grey Savile Row lounge suit for the scenes in North by Northwest. It still looked immaculate after attempts to knock it off by the bad guys. A modern tissue paper Super suiting would never have survived.Originally Posted by Sator
Which is relatively easy to do when each film take averages 3-10 minutes, depending on the scene and location of scene.Originally Posted by mrchapel
Have you ever watched as they film a scene? They redo it countless times from different angles etc just to get that 3 minute take which ends up in the final cut. Most of it ends up on the cutting room floor.Originally Posted by Sator

Yes, many times, as I have been an extra on several movies and TV shows. Yes, they redo it countless times, but if you would have read my post, you would see that I said each take. Each take does not last that long (on average 3-10 minutes), and then the actors go and sit while the production crew gets things setup for the next take of the scene, depending on angle, etc., or if they're done with that take, they'll move onto another scene.Originally Posted by mrchapel
