Drexl Spivey Mugs
Description: Gary Oldman is an Oscar winner and one of the most respected and revered actors ever. But to me, his best work is still playing the disgusting pimp Drexl Spivey in True Romance. Drexl is a central character to the story, though Oldman is essentially only in one scene ... a legendary scene so good it would have stolen the whole movie if not for the Walken/Hopper scene.
Description: If you're here checking out this design, chances are good you understand; I don't need to explain to you the glory of True Romance. So many giants of cinema are in this film. Most are one- or two-scene performances, but many would say they make the movie. The best of them - Christopher Walken, Gary Oldman, Dennis Hopper, and James Gandolfini - blew me away to the point that I felt they deserved the full 4-tone shaded Plaid treatment, despite the minuscule screen time. Also available as a Ltd. Ed. fine art print @ www.PlaidDesign.co/TrueRomance, each of the elements of this design are their own separate art pieces, so putting it all together was a task that took weeks to complete. Hope you dig it!
Description: A vintage sunset-style graphic featuring a distressed retro color palette, bold western-inspired typography, and a black-and-white portrait that captures a humorous cinematic moment. The nostalgic layout gives the design a classic 70s-inspired look while emphasizing its memorable comedic quote.

Description: Everyone knows James Gandolfini from his stellar work on The Sopranos, but long before he ever had a starring role, he often played brutish goons. His main scene in True Romance is a doozy, to say the least, and without a doubt helped get him some of those bigger roles, because he was so authentically creepy in one of the most brutally violent scenes in cinema. It's a tiny role in the film, but made such a huge impact that he deserves his own piece.
