Can’t believe I’ve tracked this down 7 years after the fact. Great to see Jay Hart’s speech back stage. As much as Hannah had a great moment it came at the sacrifice of giving Jay any time in front of the mass audience. Always felt that was thoughtless and self indulgent.

John- what a nice article you’ve written. It was such a pleasure to have been part of the weeklong production and our participation in providing my Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car , that was shipped by CBS all the way from New York’s Long Island to Los Angeles. The entire team, James and Steve, the production designers and crew were all incredibly professional, and of course working with Dick and Arlene Van Dyke once again was phenomenal. We were thrilled at the amount of screen time Chitty was given and the full screen end credit thanking us for providing the car and the dedication to my late mom, the reason for whom I built the car. Thanks again!

Comment on The Devil Wears Prada Cerulean Sweater Monologue by Dirk

There is a difference between fashion and style. What this scene talks about is fashion. Which changes over time. Whereas a style is permanent and strongly resists sweeping changes according to fashion. What comes to mind is Preppy Style. Which while touched by fashion is resitant to fashion. That cable knit sweater has been around for almost a century now, nor is blue be it whatever shade a new color. Certainly trends are effected in the way described in the film, but there are certain insulated styles that aren’t part of what she is describing.
