HAIL CAESAR! T-SHIRT

A Cult Film T-Shirt available in black or white cotton.

Hail the hilarity, salute the satire, and praise the pageantry — it’s the Hail Caesar! T-Shirt, a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the Coen Brothers’ star-studded farce about faith, film, and communist screenwriters. This tee is tailor-made for cinephiles who love their laughs laced with existential undertones and their tributes soaked in Technicolor nostalgia.

Released in 2016, Hail, Caesar! is a loving pastiche of 1950s Hollywood, following studio fixer Eddie Mannix (played with crinkled charisma by Josh Brolin) as he juggles moral crises, movie-star scandals, and the kidnapping of dimwitted matinee idol Baird Whitlock (a perfectly buffoonish George Clooney). The Coens’ film dips into every classic genre — synchronized swimming musicals, sword-and-sandal epics, western shootouts, and noir confessionals — all while weaving a meta-narrative about the meaning of art, religion, and responsibility in an age of studio control.

“Squint against the grandeur!” — Narrator

This shirt isn’t just a celebration of a cult favorite; it’s a salute to the sheer spectacle of cinema itself. Whether you're a fan of the Coens’ quirky catalog (The Big Lebowski, Barton Fink, Inside Llewyn Davis), or you just enjoy a good tap-dancing Channing Tatum performance with a side of Marxist subversion, this shirt lets you carry that classic Coen wit wherever you wander.

Perfect for film school grads, noir nostalgists, or anyone who ever wished their life had a swelling orchestral score and a mid-century newsboy shouting headlines in the background.

So don’t be a schnook — hail Caesar, hail comedy, and hail this damn fine t-shirt.
