Does anyone ever wonder what the Riff leader looks like without his shades. All throughout the film he wears those mirror shades and never takes them off. I often wonder what he looks like without them.

adios,

Well they are big shades. Maybe he had a lazy eye or something and the crew told him to wear them, hehehe

He also has a big tummy don't you think? I wonder if in a real rumble he would be as tough as he sounds. Hehehehe.

It sure looked like the rest of the Riffs were plenty respectful. Tyhe dude had to be tough...

The shades aren't that dark, I don't think...I thought I could see thru them when I looked close enough. I'll have to see though

I reckon he's cross-eyed, and he's very sensitive about it, so he keeps his shades on at all times. Even in the bath.

I always thought the one shot where he seems to be showing off his belly with his hands on his waist is kinda funny. He's not huge but he shouldn't be showing that belly so blatently, he doesn't have a six-pack, more like almost a full case lol.

As far as the shades go, I'm sure he just wears them to be "cool" and to keep his "mystique."

And while he's having sex (with shades on) he yells out "Riffs!" and the resounding response scares the chick.

All very funny posts, gave me a laugh. He wears them because they make him look damn cool, end of story. He takes them off while showering though.
It's just the greatest Movie ever made ... end of story.
