Jacob Engberg is a Copenhagen-based graphic artist who has created some hair-raising, typographic, movie-quoting prints that would look great hung in any man cave. The Movember-inspired media, cleverly entitled 'Movies Made for the Mustache,' inserts a 'stache insignia into awesome quotes from iconic masculine film characters. This transforms the printed words into their own humorous dialogues regarding the facial hair.
Some of the films include 'A Few Good Men,' 'Apocalypse Now,' and 'The Godfather.' These prints would make for an artistic alternative to movie posters commonly found in home theaters or college dorm rooms, and, because they're all printed in typeface and the same color scheme, they will bring a sense of unity to your space while still giving it an air of undeniably hip style.
So trash those unframed movie posters you got for free at the BLOCKBUSTER store-closing sale and upgrade to a luxe, card stock line of dialogue from artist Jacob Engberg. After all, who doesn't want to walk into a room and read the words, "I love the smell of ... in the morning?"
