Interesting. I spent the weekend with a guy my age and we were talking about old shows we use to watch and this was one of them. All the "cool" guys had to wear a stocking cap like him. I need to go back and watch some episodes just to see if it is like I remember or just let the memory stay the way it is.

I think it was a Navy watch cap. Us civies called em stocking caps.
My hair never looked like Bronson's when I took my cap off, looked like Moe from the 3 Stooges.

I still have my Navy cap. I gave away my boondockers, but kept that wool hat for cold nights.

"You don't work, you don't eat." His line after cleaning mortar off of bricks all day and the hot lady he had picked up just watched him work.(and watched him eat also). Cool

In Kill Bill, he played the part of Ranger Earl McGraw and later a pimp named Esteban. Thats a mans man right there. A truly great character actor.
