Have you ever noticed that movie directors often have funny faces? Woody Allen is like a skinny Ewok in specs, Quentin Tarantino a pug dog that’s been hit with a shovel. Maybe picking up a video camera is their not-so-sneaky ruse to distract us all from some seriously misshapen mugs. Unfortunately, it hasn’t worked – we can clock them from a mile away. And with these mix-and-match coasters, you get to put YOUR mugs on THEIR mugs! Ha ha, directors, now who is in control!
Take your pick of four from over 29 top dogs; my own dream team would be Jim Jarmusch, Spike Lee, David Lynch and the Coen Bros. Each coaster is made of clayboard and primed with what the artist describes in technical terms as, “several layers of super dooper sealer,” so no matter how hot your joe nor how toxic your gin and tonic, it won’t wonkify their features more than their DNA already did.
