Gina_Calabrese Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 That is awesome! I need to see that movie, sounds like Blow.What's wrong with wearing red? Apart from the fact it's an earth tone... You tell me AFTER I have a whole drawer filled with Holden merchandise that's red! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chum981 Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I think he meant Red for Men. For women its OK! Did any women in MV appear in red? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miamijimf Posted April 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Cocaine Cowboys is awesome. I highly recommend it. It's a must see for fans of Miami Vice' date=' Scarface and Vice City[/quote']You can watch the movie (documentary) on Youtube even though some versions have been deleted for "copyright reasons." The film is also on DVD of course. Its true that drug money had a lot to do with funding Miami's late 20th Century building boom. The movie Cocaine Cowboys touches on the drug-building connection and explains why all that capital was available. It documents the drug and crime problems of the city from the perspective of the crime kingpins and some of the cops. Its essential as a background for Scarface and Vice. And it has a Jan Hammer score. According to Mickey he will be played by Leonardo DiCaprio in a new Cocaine Cowboys movie. I just noticed it will be an HBO mini-series.

Tommy Vercetti Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 So did you and Mickey talk about anything interesting, like his smuggling days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COOPER&BURNETT Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 "No red or earth tones" was MICHAEL MANN's motto.Although I'm sure I could find some red here and there, it's not an approved color. I saw skinny red ties in the series. Certainly red was factored in at times. My mind just doesn't register the red in the show, so it's hard to point out examples. I'll bet they eased on it a bit as the series progressed.Yes, anyone here who wants to wear red can. All that matters is that your a VICE fan. No need to take things to ultimate extremes like me.:)I'm just a traditionalist Vice fan who takes things quite litteraly. It's fun for me, and a good way to promote this site.It's amazing to me how you are able to meet these people! You are so lucky and so cool! Thankfully, you have a camera to share the photos with us!

nmathews Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Red ? What's wrong with red!I think he meant Red for Men. For women its OK! Did any women in MV appear in red?Well here in Hoosier country Every body wears red at one time or another men and women! (IU's colors are red & white or Crimson and Cream):)I'm half-way kidding. Actually I look awful in most colors of red, and of course Bright red and earth tones were banned for the first two seasons of Vice. but as a Nash Fan DJ wore red every once in awhile.

Richie Rich Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Crockett started to wear Red t-shirts once in a while by Season 4.Crockett did not wear a red shirt. I believe I know the shirts that you are referring to, and they were bright pink, or "hot pink", but not red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Ferrariman Posted September 26, 2009 Administrators Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 Didn't Sonny wear a red or orange T-shirt at the very beginning of "Give A Little, Take A Little"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In season 5, Tubbs and Crockett wore once a brown jacket (Tubbs in "Borrasca" and Crockett in "Freefall"). Thus I would not go too big on MM´s color code.

Why is red an earth tone but not pink?As for those S5 eps, that isn't really Miami Vice.One sign they did adhere to the rule is that there weren't any red cars, which is striking given how many flashy sports cars they featured in the show.

Matt5 Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 I agree with tom71 about no going too big on MMs color code - there were several times Crockett wore red and brown.I mean in Season 5 with the ripped jeans and sport jackets was perhaps one of the best looks for Crockett in the entire Series - episodes that come to mind are "Bad Timing" and "Freefall".
