IN BRUGES INSPIRED T-SHIRT

A single colour design, hand screen printed on a grey marl T-shirt. Inspired by the film In Bruges – a 2008 dark comedy crime film starring Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson, written and directed by Martin McDonagh.

According to IMDB the hotel where Ken and Ray are staying has the name as “De Rozenkransje – Brugge”. Brugge being the Flemish name for the town of Bruges. A fictitious Belgian hotel would never be named like that, because the article is incorrect. ‘Rozenkrans’, meaning Rosary, would indeed have the article ‘de’. However, ‘Rozenkransje’ is the diminutive and as such would always have ‘Het’ as the article. Even for proficient but non-native Flemish/Dutch speakers, this is a commonly made mistake. We kept the grammatical error deliberately to keep it film accurate.
