Title: The Dude's Sweater in "Christine" (1983)
Post by: SteelDirigible on November 25, 2012, 05:49:16 PM
I was watching Christine (still am actually, on AMC) and I noticed the dude's sweater in the movie, worn by the guy who pulls Arnie's girl out of the car at the drive in. I don't know if anyone else in the world has noticed it. Maybe. haha well I thought I might share... Coincidence or influenced by Stephen King? I have the sweater myself (not the original obviously) and it's pretty swell.

Here's the clip on youtube. I cant put a link so hopefully you can figure out how to get there... if not, just search "christine choking scene" and it's the first to come up, not counting the sponsored videos.

When I was a kid we called 'sweaters' 'jumpers' or 'pull-overs'. Don't know if that's a British or an up-north thing maybe.
There's something very nurtured about a good jumper. My mum knitted me one out of natural Black-Welsh sheep wool when I was 18. I still have it 30 years later.
