The Double Stitch Will Last Forever

Those of you well-versed in The Hudsucker Proxy know that the Double Stitch might just save your life one day, provided your suits are made by a kindly Italian tailor. It also wins my award for Most Whimsical Use of Flashback in any Coen Brothers film.

Without giving too much away, the Double Stitch is pretty good shorthand for those unexpected and unearned blessings that a benevolent universe occasionally sees fit to orchestrate. Long live the Double Stitch, Saviour of Pants!
