Modern cool has a new face, or so we’re told. Who is the coolest guy? Have the golden oldies been unthroned? What do you think? Is it the much publicised Russell Brand?

What about another male icon of the 21st Century, the much-swooned over Justin Bieber?

Sorry guys – you may think you’re cool but there’s no contest.

Another website has been asking this question recently. After very little thinking, I’m reduced the candidates to these two. So, seriously, who was coolest? Paul Newman or Marlon Brando? It might be too close to call.

Or was it someone else? I think not. Anyway, I’m always being told off for using the C word.

The post Who’s the coolest guy? appeared first on Wolfie Wolfgang.

This photograph is cool in so many ways. It’s cool to be making a movie with Jack Nicolson for sure. It’s even cooler if you’re the director. Cooler still if you’re Stanley Kubrick. However the coolness surpasses the Arctic Circle and Antarctica combined when you are Stanley Kubrick taking a goofy mirror shot and you deliberately make Jack soft-focus.

Oh yes, the movie was quite cool too.

We miss you Stanley Kubrick –  come and haunt us anytime soon.

Only watch this clever video précis of The Shining is you are feeling very brave.  Keep your toddlers away when you view and then only look at it through your fingers when you’re hiding behind the sofa. Enjoy!
