About 3/4 through the movie George Clooney is riding in the passenger seat talking on the phone. The car is a open targa, the back pad looks like a 914. Then there is a night shot of the rear of the car pulling up to a house. It's a quick glimpse but I think it's a 914. If it is I thought it would be strange to have a 914 in a current movie. Did anyone else see this?

Very interesting. I saw an episode of E.R. that had George Clooney opening the rear trunk of a 914.

Apparently, someone needs to get George Clooney to join our club!

The one in the subtitle: Intolerable Cruelty. Good movie by the way. Very funny, the Cohen brothers have a touch.

Wrigley is one of these great characters. “He completely worships the ground that Miles walks on,” says Adelstein about his character. “Everything that he has is a knock-off of something of Miles’ – his watch, his suits, Miles drives a 2002 Porsche, Wrigley drives a 1975 Porsche (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) . He is a cutthroat divorce lawyer, very good at what he does, but he can’t help crying hysterically at weddings because he’s such a softy on the inside.”

I had a short film run around the country in 2002. In the film my old '76 2.0L was driven by two guys who were subsequetly 'shot' by the lead actress.

It was nice to put the car on the big screen and the feature film version of the short will feature the car a little more prominantly.

They are awsome cars, cheated by bad marketing and BIG MUSCLE car America.

HA, to the mini's!!!

914's nothing like them on the planet. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dance.gif)

Hey guys I watched the movie Intolerable Cruelty last night! It has Catherine Zeta Jones & George Clooney. I'm watching it with the wife last night. It's about 3/4 of the way thru & I can't say it was great. All of a sudden George is riding with his lawyer friend somewhere. It just show a side view of them inside the car. You don't actually see the 914 until they stop. Anyway something is looking familiar about that back window. I move up in my seat & I'll be darned if I don't see this light sitting in the middle of the backpad. I just about jump out of my seat telling my wife. IT'S A 914! IT'S A 914! IT'S A 914! Then I can see the details a little better. I clearly see the seat backs & am sure the car is in fact a 914. When they stop the lighting sucks too. Anyone who isn't familiar with 914's would never see what is was!
Anyway it has probably allready been posted. I can't say the movie kicks but or anything. It was worth it just for the 914 sighting though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

I saw one the other day that hasn't been credited yet:

Annie Hall - the Woody Allen Movie. At the end of the film, Woody and Annie are having lunch in LA, and a blue 914 drives by on the street behind her head.

Fiid.

I said the same thing when I saw Intollerable Cruelty. My girlfriend didn't seem to care. It sure didn't sound like a 914, did it?

No it didn't sound like on at all! I thought that was a little weird. I guess we needed to be able to hear them talking with the top off. Would have been nice to see Cathren in there too with her top off too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Watching movie last night, damn if george clooney and some other guy were riding in a red 914.

It was a night scene and first you just see the interior, later you see the car from the rear skid to a stop. Just a few seconds but a nice suprise.

In the last month while channel surfing I have seen some 914's in older movies.


In the Movie Vacation Chevy Chase goes into the sporting good store
to purchase an air pistol. Parked outside the store is a White 914 with the Top off
and a Surf Board sticking out.

In the Dolly Parton Movie 9-5 I saw 2 914's. They just find out the boss went to the
Hospital and they come flying out of the parking garage. Just before the car comes
out of the garage a 914 zips accross the screen I think its silver.
Next scene they arrive at the Hospital parking lot and park next to a really nice looking 914... Might even be a 914/6 its Black or a dark color
