Look Again
Effective costume jewelry is a reminder that we must not always trust our first impressions when experiencing the world around us. What are some everyday encounters that might warrant a second glance?
That tall, innocuous man, buzzing and clicking beneath the leathery veneer of his face-concealing trench coat? Look again: It is one of the mimics from the 1997 Guillermo del Toro film Mimic. Watch out, don't let it mimic you!
That painting of Abraham Lincoln in the lobby of the downtown post office? Look again: That's Lincoln alright, but his trademark stoic smile seems to stem at least partly from the fact that he's piloting a remote-controlled helicopter. Nicely done, Great Emancipator!
That tree in your front yard? Look again: What you originally ignored as unusual bark formation is now incontrovertibly a slow-writhing storm of anguished human souls trapped in the wood. Nothing will go wrong, probably, if you set aside a Saturday afternoon to take a hatchet to it.
That guy on the elevator asking for your autograph? Look again: It is Hollywood hunk Matt Damon, and you have been reverse-paparazzi'd my friend! How is it going to feel when you're the one appearing on TMZ all sleepy-eyed and paying the nanny in vodka?
