1963 & 1964 Cadillacs in the Movies - Extra Points If Your Caddy Has Been in One
I found out during our weekly chat today that we have two celebrity Cadillacs in our 63/64 chapter, including Frank and Martina Butler's 1964 Eldorado in 'The Family that Preys' and Mark Nichols 1964 Coupe was in 'Driving Miss Daisy'.
Lets start a list of movies with 63 and 64 Cadillacs, and by all means let us know if your's has every appeared in a movie or TV show!

The ones that immediately come to mind are
"The Specialist" 64 Eldo - blown up
"Coupe deVille" 64 Eldo near the end of the movie
"Jack Frost" 64 Fleetwood - wrecked at the first of the movie
"Driving Miss Daisy" red 64 Cadillac THAT KEPT MISSING HIS QUEUE and my grandfather's white 64 coupe seen outside the window of Miss Daisy's car.
"Bad News Bears"
"P.S. Your cat is dead" - I remember there being a brief shot of a 64 Fleetwood, driven by a pimp. This is a strange movie that i am not recommending to everyone.
And then the ultimate - "Tin Men" - the opening credits are my favorite cinematic moment!

I saw a 64 sedan driving up the street in "Guess Who's coming to Dinner" the other day and "Catch Me If You Can" has a 63 or 64. Need to look at it again.! Also, Elvis' 1968 movie 'Stay, Away Joe" starts out with him driving a 64 Eldo. If you ever watch the old re-runs of Hawaii 5-0 you will see some cool 60's and 70's Cadillacs.

As for TV, Mad Men had an episode where he buys a 62 Cadillac and there is a 63 Cadillac in the showroom.
