Detroit has some amazing finds, one of which is Henry The Hatter's-- a landmark old school hat shop. I needed some gangster fedoras for a few scenes and Paul Wasserman helped me out. Several of the gentlemen in buying hats were famous musicians in town and Paul was nice enough to introduce me and show me around. If you are in Detroit, I suggest you make a point to check it out and ask for Paul. If you mention The Irishman film, it will put a smile on his face.

Thank you for posting about this great business! Any word of mouth that helps promote a Michigan business is appreciated! :)
ReplyDeleteIf it's not too late, I was wondering if you need any help in wardrobe for the shoot this Thursday. I know I am really late since filming is wrapping up soon, but I would love to help in any way that I can.
Thanks Di, but I'm all crewed up and coming into the home stretch.
ReplyDeleteI figured so, but I thought it couldn't hurt to ask! :)
