The icon with this comment is another still from the movie, from where I attack an unruly, unhappy customer (or rather, counter-attack after he attacks the main character). Matt got the uniforms from having worked at Wehrenberg back in the day, though, and as I recall, considered them an important part of the aesthetic of the movie (and rightly so, especially for anyone that would recognize it as the former Wehrenberg Theatres uniform anywhere).
I do not believe I know Kim Roberts.
