Who Wore It Best?

A hustler's red hankie wrapped snug round the head?


Josh Brolin in The Goonies, or
Joe Dallesandro in Flesh?

I was in the mood for some Little Joe yesterday and in my frantic Googling fit I stumbled upon this post by Fox over at Tractor Facts where he pointed this out:

"Dude.... I've never noticed this before, but Brolin in The Goonies is totally a tribute to Joe Dallesandro in Flesh"

I had never noticed it before either, but man it's an awesomely good call, innit? Totally. Good job, Fox! I've obsessed over the important role Brolin's Goonies character played in my development before, but to see his spiritual hustler kin as Little Joe only bolsters my appreciation. So have with it, y'all.

And Dallesandro obviously gets some bonus points
for ditching the entire ensemble often, with great enthusiasm.
