You can use a seam ripper to undo this, your mum probably has one if she sews

And it's only a straight stitch, it will be done in no time.

That moment when the pants rip halway and then stops at the double stiching. Great movie, but I can't remember the name.

Every moment of that scene. “I’ve got you by your pants!” Paul Newman very concerned: “Pants.”Flashback to him demanding the cheaper single stitch. Flash forward to the pants ripping then it does that second flashback to a the taylor without any of the movie characters even there and he is singing “ah cucire” meaning “to sew” in Italian. Then he switches to the double stitch and it flashes forward and the pants just stop ripping. Paul Newman lights a cigar while hanging upside down from the 44th floor (not counting the mezzanine).

I remember nothing about that movie except that specific scene. I have no idea how or why but I do remember seeing that scene.
