Hi. What's the official name for those brim-hats that they wore back in the fifties. You know, that low-brim, Humphrey Bogart, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin felt, over the eyebrow kind of hat. Trilby?

Thanks

Some with short brims(like "Popeye" Doyle's in The French Connection) are called porkpie hats.
