Don't forget that nothing makes a woman's hair more glossy and sleek than a motorcycle helmet.

Or riding in an open topped sports car
Then with a quick shake of her head (and a quick cut) her hair is perfect again

Hmm...
In some ways films do reflect real life for some people

And it would slow the pace of the film down if we had to show them deliberating over which one of forty pairs of shoes to wear... before casting aside the thirty-nine they haven't worn in five years.

Or in a bedroom scene when the women strips to her undies she's in stockings never a pair of tights.

Live each day to the full because one day it will be your last.

Why do women nearly always SCREAM in films?

I don't think I've ever heard a real woman scream in my entire life.............

Maybe it's just my technique...........

........ !Run into the woods where there's nobody to help you!

Stockings are nice when your dressing up to go somewhere nice but not all the time.
