The Kid Stays in the ... Glasses?

Hollywood legend Robert Evans is known for many things—his career highs and lows, his seven marriages, his suave yet gravely voice and even his signature oversized eyewear . So it's only fitting that his latest endeavor involves a line of eyeglasses, which he's designed with Oliver Peoples.  The first pair of frames is called, simply, The Robert Evans, and you can see the great man himself sporting them in this promotional video, which is styled as a film trailer for a faux film entitled Mind Games. The noirish saga, steeped with Old Hollywood glamour, was actually shot in Evans' Beverly Hills home.

When I reached Evans on the phone and asked him what the film would be, his response was characteristically cryptic. "I don't know. It is called Mind Games!"
