I dunno. Using a face to capture a certain aesthetic seems to be something Kubric would have done.

From an interview
:
"Did you have all those extras pose for the last shot?

No, they were in a photograph taken in 1921 which we found in a picture library. I originally planned to use extras, but it proved impossible to make them look as good as the people in the photograph. So I very carefully photographed Jack, matching the angle and the lighting of the 1921 photograph, and shooting him from different distances too, so that his face would be larger and smaller on the negative. This allowed the choice of an image size which when enlarged would match the grain structure in the original photograph. The photograph of Jack's face was then airbrushed in to the main photograph, and I think the result looked perfect. Every face around Jack is an archetype of the period."

Skull Skates in Vancouver has been selling much cooler ones for years (and no worries about tastelessness 'cause, well, it's Skull Skates. And no stolen images, just pure grassroots art.
