Description This is a painting of Dylan and the Thin Man (see title ) from the movie Charlies Angels: Full Throttle aka the second one.

Now I haven't seen the first movie but managed to watch this Angels venture. I thought it was rubbish but the Thin Man (Crispin Glover) is incredibly strange and so of course I was always going to end up painting him

Because the Thin man has that 1920's look about him I decided to do the skin tones in Black and White with colour on Drew's hair and the lights. It's an experiment really.

Acrylic on canvas. This took around four hours to paint.

That is such a lovely comment

I really liked delving into Black and White with this one. I'm always trying to find a style that intrigues me...I want to experiment more with my painting, god knows I have enough canvas

I love this! The skin tones are fabulous. I think the Thin Man has a kind of Snape-like profile in this. ^^

Thank you. Now you mention it, he does look a bit Snape-ish, but with shorter hair

And he's fond of a redhead!!

I thought he was by far the most interesting character in this movie, even with the limited screen time he had

The psycho characters seem to be the most fun and of course they have lots of energy XD

Ahh, I need a psycho to call my own

Call my own is pretty much like saying 'I want one for myself'

Your English is fantastic btw!

Ha ha sweet! I love both of those characters in the movie. I think I only really like him 'cause he kinda resembles the Joker.

sullen-skrewt In reply to MrsJ [2008-02-06 16:59:00 +0000 UTC]

Yes, these were the only two characters that came away (kind of) unscathed by the silliness. At one point everyone was going on about him being the Joker.

MrsJ In reply to sullen-skrewt [2008-02-06 17:33:39 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I heard something about that. And it does make sense, for people to think he'd make a good Joker. But, Heath Ledger is going to be the best without a doubt.

If the trailer is anything to go by, Heath is going to completely own this role. It's a mesmerising look and he's definately got the acting chops for an amazing performance.

MrsJ In reply to sullen-skrewt [2008-02-06 21:27:44 +0000 UTC]

Yeah for sure, his other roles were great and now that he's playing a psyco killer he seems to be doing better then ever.

I love it when he's on screen in this movie... Then I go back to being blinded by the film's sheer stupidity.

sullen-skrewt In reply to olivelovessnape [2008-02-06 14:59:51 +0000 UTC]

Hahahaa, yes...I think he's the only thing worth a look in this film. Everything about the film was ridiculous...I have to say that the strip dancing scenario to retrieve a set of keys from a baddie goes beyond ridiculous and into shamefully embarrassing and exploitative. I know it's not meant to be taken seriously but....c'mon!

olivelovessnape In reply to sullen-skrewt [2008-02-07 01:36:38 +0000 UTC]

I mean, they could have just gone in and sat down next to him...
But why pass up the opportunity to wear skimpy outfits?
