#32: Sweaty Summer Series | "Overboard" (1987) Wayne Finkelman: Costume Extraordinaire
Venturing further into the sunkissed, sundrenched sweltering sizzling summer series with one of my personal favorites, "Overboard" - the original 1987 cult classic directed by Garry Marshall led by long time Hollywood couple Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell.
This film is a fun watch, but also I wanted to highlight the career and life of Wayne A. Finkelman - the incredibly brilliant costume designer behind this film and several others, who passed away far too young in 1994. The Hollywood Heritage Museum curated an exhibit in honor of him and his work in this film in partnership with the Western Costume Co. who dedicated their research library to him. Follow Heath Daniels curation of Finkelman's work and support the exhibits expansion here.
