Mulroney Q & A
To
research Randall Hertzel, the good-hearted waterbed
salesman who courts shipping-and-receiving clerk
Jeannie Schmidt (Hope Davis) in About Schmidt,
Dermot Mulroney went online. To MulletsGalore.com.
Wearing a majestic mullet and a droopy mustache,
Mulroney is virtually unrecognizable from the

Mulroney's mop is a cross between a "classic
mullet" (long in back, short on top), and
a "skullet" (way short on top). Whatever
its name, Dermot is proud of his 'do. And proud
of Randall.

Alexander Payne's movie doesn't really judge anybody.

anyone.
On how to make a mullet:
Alexander and Jim Taylor--they wrote the description
