Chandrasekhar rebuts Raghuram Rajan’s criticism on PLI calls it manipulative, misleading.He wasn’t told to do that,Clifford said. He put his mouth on Jean’s hand and started pulling his hand. There was a take where Uggie actually reached out and tried to pull the gun out of his (Jean’s) hand with his mouth. Sarah Clifford,who helped train Uggie for the movie,recalled a scene when the depressed and destitute Valentin,played by Oscar-nominated Jean Dujardin,holds a gun to his head. I love that people are responding to it and that we are not too cynical to be touched by the tale of a cute dog doing something heroic,she said. Orlean said Uggie was a charmer,whose pure heart rises above the petty concerns of humans. Uggie is really essential in the entire storytelling process…George Valentin is very selfish and eccentric,but the fact is the dog loves him throughout the movie…So the audience trusts the dog and if the dog follows him,he must be a good person,said Hazanavicius. Director Michel Hazanavicius said ‘The Artist’ would never have been the same movie without the dog. And the assumption is that the name morphed into Jughead, just like Jughead's hat morphed into a crown as time wore on, adults didn't wear hats anymore, and kids stopped busting up their dads' hats and putting a bunch of stupid buttons all over them.ĭo I buy that theory? I dunno. So how did this get to Jughead? The kids who wore these hats were called "jagheads," not because they were fans of the military/law show JAG, but because of the jagged pattern created on their hats. Kids decorated the hats with buttons, and there you go! Button beanie. The resulting hat looked kinda like a crown. I read a great article about it (linked below), but basically, when a grown-up was done wearing a hat, like an old fedora or some crap, a kid would take it, flip it inside-out, and cut the brim off. You know that crown he wears? Well, in the original comics, it wasn't a crown. It's a cup but different.īut THEN I found out how Jughead got his name! There's a great joke in this book about Jughead's name, and it got me thinking. |
