Enjoying 'The Untouchables' again(too many times to count). Funny, I now watch it for the cars. Any other Model A-type Hollywood productions? The Sting has some, but mostly B's/early V-8's. Bruce
 
There are a few in Public Enemies, also The Road to Perdition has some. If you like the Untouchables, you will like these two as well.
 
I watched "I am a fugitive from a chain gang" (1932) last night on TMC. There was a sweet sport coupe right at the end.
 
Bonnie & Clyde, Dillinger, St. Valentine's Day Massacre all have Model A's in them. :)

O'brother where are thou also has alot of Model A's.

The Green Mile makes use of an AA Truck for a few scenes.
 
Places in the Heart (with Sally Field, Danny Glover & Ed Harris) - nice roadster and others.
 
We had several A's in "Bagger Vance" when filmed here.

Several T's and a 1908 Buick Tourer are in town now for a new movie (circa mid-Teens) with Jim Caviezel, "Savannah".
 
Road to Perdition gets my vote because Tom Hanks opens the back door of my 29 town and pushes "Finn McGovern" into the back seat. We worked all night on that scene and more. Went home when the sun came up.
Great fun altho it was 18 degrees out side.

Just watched that yesterday (if you're referring to the modern version with Jack Black) and noticed that during that scene (mostly digital effects) Model A's and AA's were about the only type of cars in there. Lazy animators I guess. :D Luke
 
The Bacherlor and the Bobby Soxer (Cary Grant, Shirley Temple, boyfriend's jalopy). And Fried Green Tomatoes.
