Hi All. One of my favorite "special interests" if you will is suits. I've been fascinated by them even since I had to wear them during my career and just think they look neat. As such I wanted to start a thread just showing great fictional characters in suits. One of the first that really grabbed my interest was seeing the character of Dick Jones who was the Senior President of OCP in the movie Robocop. His three piece suit just looked awesome and I had a love of three piece suits ever since. Here is a picture.

And of course James Bond. Such a neat scene from Casino Royale

Also Pierce Brosnan as James Bond (one of my favorite Bonds)

I immediately thought of Seth Meyers in a suit. I know Seth is not fictional, but the Seth in a suit was fabricated by television executives.

Michael Douglas in Breaking down

And Willem Dafoe in Mississipi burning

I liked how good they looked in their suits despite being in high pressure situations

That's a great point and I agree. I liked William Dafoe in Mississippi Burning too! It was a great movie! I've seen bits and pieces of "Falling Down" and it looks great. I have to watch the full movie sometime!

There is a lot of suits in older movies! That's one of the things I love about them. I never heard of that movie before! I'll have to watch it! I like James Stewart.
