Liberty Heights

-  John Horner of the Cadillac Mailing List [CML] passed on this interesting snippet:
We recently rented Liberty Heights, a real period piece set in Baltimore in 1954-56. Cadillacs are an integral part of the story. Highly recommended!

Frank Perch, also of the CML, adds this: Ditto! The absolutely best Cadillac line comes toward the very end of the movie -- the one about the religious service -- I won't
spoil the whole thing for those who haven't seen it. BTW, for the non-Cadiholic members of your family, they will enjoy it too; it's a wonderful movie besides the cars.

License to Drive

Live and Let Die

- a 1971 Fleetwood Brougham in Gold with a black or brown vinyl roof, with a lot of exterior modifications. Referred to by James Bond (Roger Moore) as a jukebox.

Two customized pimpmobiles in the movie were previously described here, in error, as a 1971/72 Eldorado coupe. This submission in July 2002 by Cadillac enthusiast,  Rick Anderson, will set the record straight: In the Movie section "Live and Let Die" the white "pimpmobile" isn't a chopped or modified El Dorado. It's actually a Corvette with a fiberglass molding of an El Dorado attached. The builder is Les Dunham of Dunham Coach 234 Division St., Boonton, N.J.(.973-299-1900). The "Corvorado" and the other exotic cars in the film were supplied him (including the Fleetwood owned by a gentleman in Texas) The reason I know these facts, is that I have an uncle who still owns a '67 El Dorado customized by Dunham; he owned also a newer edition "Corvorado".

Lolita, starring Shelley Winters and James Mason (in a Stanley Kubrick film)

- Starring also in this movie is a Cadillac ambulance from the fifties (thanks to Philippe Ruel, from France, for this movie tip and still)

Mad Miss Manton, The, starring Henry Fonda

- 1940 V-16 town car, style 9053

 


It is believed that this town car, one of only two built on the V-16
chassis in 1940, belonged to movie producer Darryl Zanuck!

 

 

Madame X, starring Lana Turner, John Forsythe, Ricardo Montalban (1966)

-  features one of only eleven 1938 Cadillac V-16 town cars built. About the movie itself, long-standing CLC member, Doug Houston, wrote]: Many of us are familiar with the 1930-31 body series named after a stage play titled: "Madame X" (with an "e"). I believe it was in 1966 that the story was made into a B&W movie [in fact, Doug, there have been a number of screen plays and at least one stage version; the movies include one with Pauline Frederick (in 1920), Ruth Chatterton (in 1929), Gladys George (in 1937), Lana Turner (in 1966 - the one to which you refer) and Tuesday Weld and Granville Van Dusen (in the seventies); Ms. Chatterton played also in the stage version at the old Fisher Theater, across from the GM building in downtown Detroit where Harley Earl met her backstage and - so the story goes - was so taken by her that he named the "Madame X" car after her]. The film starts out with a 1938-40 Cadillac 90 town car, driving through the country roads in Westchester County, NY. The car runs through beautiful settings, with various views of the car. At first, it's hard to tell which year it is, until it shows a quick view, over the chauffeur's shoulder, showing the unmistakable 1938 dash. The car finally comes to a stop at the door of a beautiful mansion, so typical of that county. I haven't checked to see if the movie is available on a "factory" videotape. I recorded it off of the air. The story is great, and portrays an unfortunate situation involving a young lady, who is exiled to Europe, and years later returns in her last days, to have involvement with her son, who somehow recognizes her as his real mother. She had assumed another identity, and it was questioned, bringing on the mysterious name: Madame X. .......something like that. Anyhow, it was a good movie, even after seeing the town car!

Magnificent Obsession, starring Robert Taylor and Irene Dunne [1935]

- 1949 Series 62 convertible.  Movie buff, Jams R. King, sent this additional information:   This was the film that made Robert Taylor a star.  There was a later version in the 50s with Rock Hudson in Taylor's role.  Taylor plays a worthless playboy - in the scene pictured on your Website, he has just caused the accident that has blinded Irene Dunne.  So he goes to medical school and becomes a doctor and operates on her so she can see again.  It was based on a novel which was a huge best seller by Lloyd C. Douglas.
Thanks, James.

- Federal Agent "Mel Purdue" hunts down the bad guys in a 1926 Cadillac Custom Touring in this 1936 Warner Bros. Film. If you ever wondered how a '26 Cadillac corners at high speed, here's your chance to find out!  [supplied by CLC member, terry Boyce, 1/2002]

Man Who Wasn't There, by Joel and Ethan Coen, © 2001, USA Films, starring Billy Bob Thornton, Frances McDermond, James Gandolfini,

- Set in a small; California town in 1949, it's the story of a simple barber turned blackmailer to escape his dull existence. In the tradition of classic noir movies, nothings goes according to plan. Full of surprises, stunning revelations, and strange occurrences that will delight the movie-goer long after the film is over. Thanks to Jerry Jansson of Sweden, for adding this one to the list. The car appears to be a 1949 Series 62, style 6207 Sedanet.

Martin and Lewis, starring Will & Grace's John Hayes in the role of Jerry Lewis

Mask, The, starring Jim Carrey

- Jim drives off in a nice, white, 1970 convertible at the movie's end. Also, the "bad guys" tool around in a nineties limousine (too dark to grab any DVD stills). At one point, Jim rides also in a super-stretch limousine with dozens of windows (seen only  in profile view so unable to determine year or model - it may not even be a Cadillac). This info and DVD stills from Philippe Ruel, France. Thanks again !

Matinee, starring John Goodman

- 1959 convertible; that car is on display at Universal Studios in Florida. Closer examination revealed that this convertible was actually a 4-door sedan which had received some major custom work.

Matrix Reloaded, The, [sequel movie]  starring Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss and Laurence Fishburne

- CLC member, F. Lucas says (Jan. 2003): happened to be watching "Entertainment Tonight" this evening and I saw a couple of clips from one of the new "Matrix" movies due out later this year. There was a chase scene in one of the clips featuring not one but TWO Cadillacs -- a bullet-hole-ridden CTS and an Escalade EXT.

Menolippu Mombasaan [a Finnish film]

Metro, starring Eddie Murphy and Michael Rappaport

- watched a re-run on TV last night and did NOT enjoy the slow, deliberate destruction of an otherwise fine-looking baby blue, '69 DeVille convertible with light (but not white) leather (?) interior. Good Hollywood entertainment.

Mickey Blue Eyes, starring Hugh Grant and several actors from the TV series The Sopranos

- This from collector and enthusiast Rik Gruwez of Belgium: last night [01.14.2040] I watched "Mickey Blue Eyes",  starring Hugh Grant. He plays this character of an auctioneer who marries the daughter of a New York City based mobster. The older members of the mob drive 1993-1996 Fleetwoods [James Caan drives a  1996 Fleetwood]. One of the sons uses an Allanté [1993] transportation.

Midsummer Nights Murders Made-for-TV movie

- features a rare 1956 Cadillac station wagon built on a 1956 Cadillac chassis by Hess & Eisenhardt; the car belongs to an English collector.

 

 

Mildred Pierce, starring Joan Crawford

- toward the end of the movie, she has a 1949 Cadillac 2 door fastback.  It's two tone green (If you see the colorized version)  and epitomizes '40s Cadillac styling

Miller, Glenn (The Story) , starring James Stewart and June Allyson

I caught the movie on TCM (Turner Classic  Movies) and noticed that the band leader starts driving a gray, 1941 "Series 62" Cadillac convertible coupe after things get better for the band and they start selling hundreds of thousands of records (early '40s ?).

[ can someone supply a screen shot ? ]

Moonlight Mile, starring Dustin Hoffman and Susan Sarandon, 2002

- [info from CLC member Kevin o'Keefe] A black 1968 Sedan de Ville starred in this movie; the interior is light baby blue cloth and the car features a power bucket seat in front (driver) and a console between the front seats.

Moonrunners, 1975 [like the TV series, Dukes of Hazzard?], starring James Mitchum, Arthur Hunnicutt, and Kiel Martin.

- No Boss Hogg or triple white Eldorado, but in this movie, but in 3 or 4 scenes, there is a '66 Sedan De Ville. The car does not play a big role, nor is it used to run "shine"; the car appears again in the last scene.

Murder My Sweet, starring Dick Powell- A rare 1942 Cadillac Series 67 takes private investigator Philip Marlowe (Dick Powell) for a ride in this 1944 film noir classic [supplied by CLC member, terry Boyce, 1/2002]

Murderers, The, a  B&W movie starring Burt Lancaster in his first major role.

-  You see him checking the oil on a 1941 Series 60 Special. The crew left the hood ornament "up" when the car drives up, for ease in opening the hood between takes. The "snick" of the oil dipstick can be clearly heard. Barry Wheeler of the CLC, who supplied the information on most of the movies listed here that featured a 1941 Cadillac believes a 1937 sedan is also seen later in the movie.

National Lampoon's Animal House

- pink 1963 4-door, 1961 convertible and 1962 convertible

Nightshift, starring Henry Winkler and Michael Keaton [1982]

- Movie buff Brad Faul sent this one too.  He writes: Here's some more pics I've attached to this email. I think you'll like these, from the 1982 movie "Nightshift" with Henry Winkler and Michael Keaton. In the intro, two pimps are trying to kill a third one, and they chase him with an all white (82/83?) Fleetwood. There are some really nice shots of this car. Also,there's footage of a '74 Limousine style hearse/ambulance, which they call a "morgue vehicle." In the garage shot, Michael Keaton is using it to supplement his income by running a unauthorized "limo service" with the morgue's cars.I'm thinking they never used any Cadillac morgue vehicles in real life, but it's neat that one's in the movie anyhow.

Ocean's Eleven [1960], starring Dean Martin, Shirley McLaine, inter alia

- 1957-58 Eldorado Brougham [brief appearance - perhaps this is the car Sinatra is said to have owned]. Enthusiast, Jerry Jansson from Sweden writes:  Hey, I  just got a copy of the original movie Ocean's 11, the one with Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. ( I met the guy in Stockholm back in the 70's when I was doing lights at a show-restaurant), Dean Martin
etc etc.  Of course you know that there is a '57 or '58 Brougham featured in that movie. It's either sandalwood or Kenya beige
[or Nairobi Pearl, Jerry].

Oscar, starring Sylvester Stallone

-  At  a recent auction by the Kruse group, a 1930 Cadillac 4-door sedan was offered for sale  [lot #1074].  Bidding went up to $45,500 for a car in condition "3" [average], but its owner did not let it go.

Parrish, The, starring Troy Donahue and Karl Malden, 1960

-  Cadillac enthusiast Dave Smith added this one to the repertoire in January, 2004: I almost forgot one of my favorites! The 1960 movie Parrish starring Troy Donahue and Karl Malden. It focuses on the Tobacco industry in Connecticut between two rivals.  Karl Malden plays a wealthy tycoon who has a black Limousine with his character's initials on the front doors. To show the passing of the years it starts with a 1956 Cadillac Series 75 limousine, then a 1957 (mid-movie) and finally a 1959 limousine. One of his sons has an early 50s limousine, a '52 I think. The entire movie was filmed in Connecticut and is a treat to watch.

Payback, starring Mel Gibson

- Early in the movie, hero "bad guy" Mel Gibson and his thug friend crash head-on into a '79 Cadillac limousine in order to stun its oriental occupants (who are NOT wearing seat belts) and steal their bounty. The hero later gets locked in the trunk of a '79 (?) Fleetwood limousine belonging to the Mob; he escapes by digging his way through the rear seat back and leather trim with a tire iron.

[submitted by Cadillac enthusiast, Derek Sherwood]

Pearl Harbor, starring Alec Baldwin, Ben Afleck, Josh Hartnett, Kate Beckinsale

- I caught the movie in the middle (on ABC, Sunday 2.8.04); part of the story relates to the bombing of Tokyo by Doolittle's Raiders. During a short open air dialog between Ben and Kate, in front of a gas station, you can see a two-tone, 1940 LaSalle sedan parked in the background.   Just thought I'd mention it even though it plays no obvious role in the movie.

-  There's a pink Cadillac inthe movie, from around 1954-1956

- A Casino tycoon gives six money-crazed contestants the chance to win $2 million in a race from Las Vegas to New Mexico. One hilarious ride! Thanks again, Jerry Jansson, for this information and the two movie stills

CML member Warren Hawtin from Australia added (Feb. 2003): The funniest scene I have watched involving a Caddy is in Rat Race where these two idiots are chasing a hot air balloon in a 76 Eldorado. The balloon is trailing a rope and one moron climbs out on the hood to catch it as they are careening across a dairy farm. He slips and gets his tongue stud caught in the wreath and crest on the front of the hood whilst his partner who is driving on cruise control grabs the robe and gets hauled out of the car. You have to see this one!

Ray, starring Jamie Foxx

-  In this story about the life of singer-showman Ray Charles, at least three superb Cadillacs were featured in the movie.  There were, inter alia, a red 1956 Series 62 Sedan or Sedan de Ville, a Wood Rose 1959 Series 60 Special sedan and a black 1964 Fleetwood Eldorado. There may have been others too in various street scenes.

Red Rock West [1992], starring Nicholas Cage, Dennis Hopper and Laura Flynn Boyle

- white 1967 Coupe De Ville in the first quarter of the film. One gas  station attendant says: "They don't build them like that anymore".

Remember the Titans, starring Denzel Washington

-  This from Rick Statham:  I leased my 1960 Cadillac M/M Ambulance for the filming of Remember the Titans with Denzel Washington. I also owned the 1969 Fleetwood used in that movie, as also the 1976 Fleetwood limousine.

Revenge, starring Kevin Costner and Anthony Quinn (1990)

-  This from French movie buff, Philippe Ruel: just viewed again this relatively little known movie about a horse trader from Montana who does business with Mexico. The car featured is a trailer-hauling, red 1961 or 1962 Cadillac convertible

Rising Sun, starring Sean Connery

- I caught the tail-end of this Kung-Fu movie on TV (Jan. 2003) and noticed in one of the closing scenes a pale-blue '59 Series 62 convertible gliding across center-screen from left to right.   Can anyone tell me if that car had any other part in the movie, or was it just "accidental"?

Road Scholar (1993), [proposed addition by CML member, Ronald Threadgill, who says it's one of the funniest movies he's seen]

-  The billboard features a '59 Cadillac but there is none in the movie; the Cadillacs featured are from 1967-68.

Roger Rabbit,

-  I have not seen the movie but am told it might feature some Cadillacs of the thirties and forties.

Runners, starring: Jesse Harper, Theo Pagones, Christopher Jacobs, Elan James,
                               Betsy Monroe, Vance Strickland, filmed in 2000

- Aussie enthusiast Greg Short contacted me in July, 2004, with this information : I saw your recent post on the most excellent Cadillac Database with respect to Caddies in films and film strips. I just wanted to pass on some information about our '64 DeVille Convertible that was used in an independent film made in California in 2000 called "Runners." The film is basically a "road trip" drama, so the car features prominently.  It is a very confronting film so is unlikely to be distributed widely although I thought it was very good (I obtained my own copy from the distribution company) and won Best Film at the Phoenix Film Festival of 2001under it's working title of "The Boys from Madrid." The car was owned by the Director, Carlo Gustaff, and I bought it off the guy who bought it off him, who had it shipped out here to Melbourne, Australia. Apparently, Carlo Gustaff's office is on Sunset Boulevard and the car was his daily driver, so I take great delight in telling people that our Caddy used to cruise up and down Sunset Boulevard every day! Anyway, I'm not asking you to re-arrange your Database to accommodate this information, I just pass it on for you to archive, as you see fit. The cars sequence number is: 64F141812. Cheers. Perhaps Greg could dig up a photo of his car for us!

Scarface, starring  Al Pacino

CLC member and moviegoer Derek Sherwood brought this one to my attention; he said it featured a yellow 1963 or 1964 De Ville convertible; having finally seen the movie [3/2002] I can confirm that the car is a '63 Series 62 convertible with leopard skin seat covers; Pacino progresses to a white Rolls Royce Silver Cloud as his bad boy image grows!

Shag, starring a young Brigitte Fonda

- This is a coming-of-age movie about four southern girls in the mid-60's. In it, they drive a girl's mother's new red DeVille convertible (66-67ish1, if I recall) down to Myrtle Beach for spring break [info from Jim Smithbauer]

_________________________________________________
1  Jannick Halben, an enthusiast from Denmark tells me [Jan. 2001] that the car is in fact a new, 1964 model and the action may have taken place in the Fall of 1963.   Thanks for the update Jannick ...and also for the photos of those two lovely oriental cuties pictured with Elwood, your superb '64 Eldorado!

Shawshank Redemption, The

- The harsh realities of prison life; apparently a 1947 Cadillac Series 60 Special was used in the movie (the same one as was also apparently used in the movie Forrest Gump)

Shining, The

- A must see! The recent TV movie version of The Shining has Halloran driving
a red 1959 Cadillac Series 62 convertible (thanks to Richard Goulden in Australia for identifying it correctly).
CLC member, Tom Coy, added this in July 2002: The 1959 Series 62 convertible that appears in the TV remake of The Shining belongs to Rocky Mountain Region CLC member, Skip Gorman. Its color is Coca-Cola red, and Skipper brings the car to our club activities for parades and shows. Note at the end of the movie when the camera zooms in on the CLC logo decal on the windshield.

Showdown in Little Tokyo, starring Dolf Lundgren

        - One more martial arts movie showing off to perfection Mr. Lundgren's six-pack abs;
           the only saving feature of the movie is the red (!) Fleetwood "75" operated by the
           bad guys, that makes a couple of brief appearances.

Shortcuts

- featured a '71 in a very short scene in about two thirds of the (long) movie   and in the last part the film an elderly lady singer pulls up her driveway   in a '65 Sedan.

Sixth Day, starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Rapaport, Michael Rooker, Robert Duvall, Sarah Wynter, Tony Goldwyn, Wendy Crewson; director: Roger Spottiswoode (Columbia pictures)

-  In the not-too-distant future, when cloning plants, pets, and human organs is accepted, a sinister corporation has begun illegally duplicating entire human beings. They mistakenly clone the wrong man; a man who is now the only one with the power to expose their evil. They desperately want to kill him, but he will do anything to reclaim his family and life. Comm: Arnold outsmarts the bad guys after a car-chase where he drives his, to start with restored and at the end trashed, 57 Caddy. As seen in these photos, Arnold is not actually driving the car in the chase scenes [addition by Jerry Jansson, Sweden]

Sixth Sense, starring Bruce Willis and Haley Joel Osment

-  CML member, Sal Darigo writes: ...when Bruce Willis walks Haley Joel Osment to school, watch the part of the scene where the characters cross the street. Over Bruce Willis' shoulder you can sort of see a 1980 Sedan deVille. I owned the car at the time and rented it to the production company. On the DVD, there's a much better view of the rear end and driver's side of the car in the scene entitled "A Visit to Mr. Mandebach" which may be found in the "Deleted Scenes" feature.

Slaughterhouse Five,

- Chris McBride, a subscriber to the CLC Forum, wrote (in March, 2004): I don't remember the year of the car nor the character (I think it was Mrs. Pilgrim) but the movie has a long sequence where she drives cross-town in her big white caddy desperate to see her hospitalized husband; she destroys all in her path and eventually crashes directly into the ER . ... I think she succumbs to carbon monoxide poisoning since she rips off her exhaust in the drive. A great testimonial to the car's ability to take a licking and keep on ticking!!! My wife often drives our white '64 deville  ... she won't tolerate references to Mrs. Pilgrim .... but she did let us put an "ahab" plate on it since she sometimes teaches middle schoolers literature.

Sleepers, starring Jason Patrick

-  The Mafia boss who helps Jason Patrick and his friends is driven around town in a mid-80's black Fleetwood with black-tinted windows. There may also be some other mid-60's Cadillacs in evidence in the earlier parts of the movie, which begins in the 1960's and ends in the present.

[from auto buff, Derek Sherwood]

Solid Gold Cadillac, The, starring Paul Douglas and Judy Holliday

- a 1956 comedy starring a gold-colored 1956 Eldorado Biarritz [background image to this page]. The movie is shot in black and white ...except for the final scene!

This is a still shot from the tail end of the movie which,

Some Came Running (c1959), starring Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Shirley McLaine

- Barry Wheeler of the CLC writes: This is the first movie my wife and I saw together when we first met. It was in a crowded downtown first run theatre and she almost left when I banged her knee and said, "Ohmygod! Look at that 1941 Cadillac convertible. I was driving a 1941 Series 6127 coupe at the time. She was interested in seeing the movie as it was filmed while she was taking some specialized nurses' training. (Madison, IN.) It was Dean Martin's car. In one scene, he drove it along Main Street, then got out and let someone back it up for the next "take."

Slums of Beverly Hills

- Caught this one by chance on TV, March 1, 2002. It features a '67 De Ville convertible

Smoke [details please ?]

Smoky and the Bandit, starring Burt Reynolds and Sally Field

- Peter, a CLC member added this one in January 2003 (it's an older movie so we have to rely on TV re-runs to refresh our memories):  I'm surprised this one has not been mentioned. There's a 70's white Eldo convertible with oxen horns in lieu of a hood ornament. Burt Reynolds drives off with Sally Field in it at the end, after collecting the money.

Specialist (The), starring Sylvester Stallone and Sharon Stone

-  The movie features briefly a turquoise '63 Eldorado with non-original fender spears;
also noticed a pink '56 Series 62 convertible in the background

Spy Who Shagged Me, The, starring Austin Powers

-  The current movie has the hero traveling back to 1975 in a Pimped-out Eldorado time machine. The amber turn signal lenses actually make it a 1976 model.

St. Tropez Cop [French movie: Le Gendarme de St. Tropez] starring Louis de Funes

-  a delightful spoof about an imaginary police force in France's Riviera resort of St. Tropez; some of their antics will remind you of the early Keystone Cops; although the action centers around a 1965 top-down Mustang, a 1957 Fleetwood Series 75 limousine makes a brief but noticeable appearance at a formal reception

St. Valentine's Day Massacre, The starring Jason Robards as Al Capone

-  Lots of twenties cars in this one, including a 1927-28 La Salle phaeton bought off a
   used car lot by a mobster, for $750; on the same car lot, supposedly in late 1928 or
   early 1929, stood a beautiful Cadillac V12 model  ...although these   were first marketed
   almost three years later, in September, 1931 !

Starsky and Hutch,

-  CLC Forum member, Eric S. Maypother, wrote (in March 2004): Hi, I was just looking through the March 2004 issue of Premiere magazine, and on the story of the movie Starsky & Hutch, there's a picture at a hospital that has the Torino and, in the background, a 1977 Cadillac high-top ambulance. Another mermber, "David", added : In the beginning of the movie there is also a gold '68(?) De Ville convertible that has a great cameo roll...and is mentioned in a later scene. Excellent movie by the way!!! Go see it.

Suddenly..., starring a young Frank Sinatra (yep, ol' Blue Eyes himself)

-  This is an "oldie", in B&W (probably made circa 1954). Sinatra is a hired assassin bent on killing the President of the USA as he gets off the train for an official visit to a small town.  The car sent to meet him at the station is a Series 75   limousine from 1948-49.

Superfly,

-   Enthusiast Derek Sherwood mentioned the 1971-72 customized pimpmobile in this near-cult movie. I saw a similar car in a little known yet fabulous auto museum in Raamsdonksveer, Netherlands, in the summer of 2001.  That car was said to have been owned by Elvis Presley [see Dream Cars section for 1970].

This submission in July 2002 by Cadillac enthusiast,  Rick Anderson, gives an accurate description of this movie car [see also "Live or   Let Die" (above)]:

The car in "Superfly" was customized by Les Dunham of Dunham Coach 234 Division St., Boonton, N.J.(.973-299-1900). The original owner, "KC", is featured in the film wearing a red hat in a bar scene. He is from here, in Boston. This car was later repainted to it's original color (white) after the movie was finished. Dispelling the rumor of it's existing anywhere else in the world, good word on the street is that it was destroyed in Delaware many years ago.

Superman, starring Christopher Reeves (?)

- CLC member, John Fleming, mentioned (in January 2003) a chase scene in the movie that involved a 1972 Fleetwood. The movie stills below [from DVD] were sent later by Philippe Ruel (who also corrected my "Steve" Reeves, to "Christopher" (Steve's son)

Survivors, The, starring Walter Matthau and Robin Williams

at the end of the movie Matthau, Williams and two others are in a 1977-78 Eldorado, plowing through the snow, chased by dog sleds; the car misses a curve and lands in a field of snow. They finally get it out and they charge an army of men and huskies. Hilarious! A tribute to the large Eldorados!

Sweet Bird of Youth, A, starring Paul Newman (1962)

- Movie buff and Cadillac enthusiast,  Chris Platt, says that Newman drives Geraldine Page to the Mississippi Gulf Coast in a 1962 Eldorado Biarritz convertible. There are other scenes with Cadillacs as well.

Switchback, starring Danny Glover and Dennis Quaid

I caught the tail-end of a "thriller" on TV (Feb. 2003) in which Danny Glover [of the Lethal Weapon series] plays the bad guy. I did not see it, but apparently he drives a white Cadillac.  The action takes place in a mountainous, snow-covered part of the country (Rockies, Canada ???), and on a railroad. I asked Database users these questions: Title ? Other players ? Year and model of the Cadillac ?

-  Meanwhile CML [Cadillac Mailing List] member, Dermot P. Thompson wrote:  Last night I watched Switchback, starring a beautiful white 1977 Eldorado. The Eldo featured prominently, and there was a lot of dialog concerning it.  Obviously, it was wrecked near the end, although I hope that was just special effects. A State cop took one quick glance at the side, and immediately smiled and exclaimed: Hey, a 77 Eldorado. Amazing that after all these years a 75-78 Eldo could be so easily distinguished. The interior was lined with laminated girlie pictures, and Glover, the owner, told his sidekick that he used to have an 82 Seville similarly decorated, but he had ran out of space inside, and boy, but did it take a long time to sell...

I also got correct information, later, from another movie buff and Cadillac enthusiast, Shannon Steele.

Tequila Body Shots

- CML member, Jan Hickman, writes: I was surfing TV this morning ]Feb., 2003] and saw a scene where 3 young men are riding in a red convertible early 60's model. I'm not sure of the year or model and didn't watch the rest of the movie. I didn't want to start in the middle of the movie, but have added it to my TV wish list to catch later.

Terminal Velocity

- in this movie, a red 1987-88  Allante is pushed out of an airplane

Terminator, The, Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger

-  Reese and Sarah Connor were in a 1973 (?) Eldorado in a chase scene [and this just in (1/2004) from Cadillac enthusiast and movie buff, Dave Smith:  I was just watching the original Terminator movie and noticed something funny. There is a scene where Michael Bien steals a 1977 Eldorado from a parking garage. It is a sharp looking light blue standard model with blue leather seats. At the end of the chase scene, it has become a similar color "Biarritz" model with the pillowed seats! You gotta love Hollywood!

Carolina who happens to have owned an identical model).

As they regroup, however, they are being followed by members of a rival street gang, and that gang is driving a dilapidated black 1954 Cadillac Series 75 hearse with graffiti scrawled over the body. As the rival gang's '54 hearse stops in front of the Warrior's hideout, the gang's leader, while still in the car, is taunting the Warriors to "come out to play."

Wings of Eagles, starring John Wayne

Willy Dynamite

-  Again a new one from from CML member, Jan Hickman, who says: a 1973 movie about a New York pimp driving a '72 (not sure) pimped-out Eldorado. I haven't finished watching this movie, but it opens with the main character driving this Cadillac. I haven't finished watching the movie yet but the last scene I've watched was just after the Cadillac was towed. I hope he gets it back before the end of the movie.

The Cadillac is the getaway car!

Other Movies

-  On this Dutch Web site with other great Cadillac content are listed a number of other movies said to  feature Cadillacs; I have not had time to verify all of them but the source is believed to be very reliable.

CLC member, Barry Wheeler, mentions also an early post-WW2 golfing short in B&W,  featuring a beautiful, Dusty Grey/Rivermist Grey 1941 60S. (B&W). It starred whoever was the big golfing star just after the war. Everyone at that time wore white shirts, ties, and plus-fours.

Harry and the Hendersons ('59)

Scrooged (Bill Murray's Christmas movie) (1959 model)

-  80's TV show about an older man, a detective of some sort, who drove a 1975 Coupe de Ville.

-  A CLC member who uses the alias "Matt V16" wrote in January, 2005: If you can find "A plumbing we will go" 1940, you will see Moe, Larry and Curly [the Three Stooges] riding in the back of a truck and they pass a real sharp black '38 60 Special parked on the street with the big Trippe lights on the front end. I paused that shot many times. This is the film where Curly thinks he can fix a leak in the shower! A real classic! Almost every time a big fancy car was used in a Stooges film, it was a Cadillac.. There was also a 38 60 Special used in a movie made in Canada around 1983 but I do not remember the name.

Another CLC member, "Mike", responded: I also remember seeing a 3-Stooges short that used a V-16 car. Can't quite remember the skit or the year of the car, but they did include the soundtrack when the car sped off. This is the only time I actually have heard a V-16 exhaust note in anger! It was sweet!

Movie Trivia

Paul Talsethagen, a Norwegian Cadillac enthusiast, writes: By the way, find any American movie with a Mafia-plot and you will see a lot of Cadillacs. Regarding the 'image' of Cadillacs in movies, I have studied that with great concern for many years.  A bad guy in an American movie always seems to drive an American car.  The good guys often drive Volvos or SAABs, or if they are wealthy, BMWs & Mercedes (or other exclusive European sports cars).  If the bad guy has a very low status he's driving a dirty, beaten-up muscle car, and if he's an organized-crime-type, it seems he's driving a Cadillac. This image is typical of movies from the eighties. During the 90's the tide turned a bit, but we still have a long way to go to correct that image.  It's still considered a bit suspicious and "bad taste" in some circles to drive a Cadillac, be it in the movies or even in real life.  Does anybody else share this opinion (or rather observation)?

   EST) a documentary about the Cadillacs of Elvis Presley, including in particular, the one
   that he had re-painted the color of "crushed grapes".  That car was restored in 1977;
   work was completed just after the King's death. Many other Cadillacs from another
   "History Channel" documentary also are featured.

 

Cadillacs in Books and Comics

Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, a series from Epic Comics done by a man named Mark
   Schultz. The story is set in the 26th century, with much of the US under water. The hero,
   Jack Cadillac Tenrec, drives a blown '53 Eldorado convertible [of which an experimental
   one was actually built by Cadillac - see Dream Cars section for 1953].  Unlike the real
   car, Jack's Eldorado has a "4-on-the-floor" stick shift!

 

And finally some movie quotes that refer to the Cadillac

- Jake Blues in Blues Brothers, The (1980) said: First you trade the Cadillac for a
   microphone. Then you lie to me about the band. Now you're gonna put me right back in
   the joint!

- Darwin Mayflower in Hudson Hawk (1991) said:  If Da Vinci was alive today, he'd be
   eating microwave sushi, naked, in the back of a Cadillac with the both of us.

In Francis Ford Coppola's The Conversation (about phone tapping in the sixties) one of
   the actors refers to the leading man (Harrison Ford, who plays Harry Caul) as the guy
   who heard first that Cadillac was dropping the tail-fin...
[1964-65].

 

Readers' comments

-  Merry Christmas [2000] to all [from Volker Meerkamp in Germany].  Volker says:
   There was a press release here saying that GM will sponsor the next two Matrix movies
   (starring Keanu Reeves) to the tune of 10 million dollars and 90 cars.  Movies 2 and 3
   will be produced together by Warner Brothers; the 2002 Escalade Pick Up and the
   "
new Catera" will be the featured cars. I guess the Catera may be an Evoq, since the
   Opel Catera production was stopped this year.

L'un des sujets de débat qui revient souvent sur le tapis lorsque les membres du Cadillac Mailing List (CML) discutent entre eux, ce sont les nombreuses Cadillac qui ont tenu un rôle plus ou moins important au cinéma, dans des séries télévisées ou dans la pub à la télévision.

Le liste présentée ici est le fruit des recherches d'un collectionneur et ami de la froide Finlande, M. Kai Savolainen.

Il ne peut s'agir que d'un premier jet, car ces autos vont continuer longtemps à évoluer sur grands et petits écrans.  Alors, si vous en connaissez d'autres, faites-moi signe.
