French cars in films

[beast]

This is only my second post and I haven't been through all of this topic but I was watching a film on sky arts last year it was one of gerard depardieu early films called Les Valseuses there was a lot of footage of a DS and other French classics def worth a viewing

Watched 'The Detectives' and saw a white ZX hatch in Series 3, episode 5 'Between a rock and a hard place'.

Funny/peculiar that this has come up - I have just sat through the most boring film in the history of both boredom and films, and here was the most gorgeous marron/brown DS swerving in the streets of Paris. Only brief, but that was enough pour moi!

The film, to be avoided, was, 'la femme infidele'. Late 60's early 70's perhaps. Awful. What a looker of a car.

Watched and really enjoyed the TinTin film last night, the animation spookily realistic Excellent film, enjoyed muchly...

There were a few Citroens in that, a couple of 'Utes and a couple of Tractions...

Herge (TinTin auhour) was always very careful in his drawings to portray real places and things. This came across in the film.

I have a feeling that I should google, 'new TinTin film b4 posting, but instead of that - is this a new film, Jim?

[CitroJim]

is this a new film, Jim?

No idea to be honest. Saw the DVD on sale in Tesco last week and being a lifelong fan of TinTin (read all the books as a kid) I grabbed it. Siany and I watched it last night and really loved it.

It's a Steven Speilberg film and is called TinTin and the Secret of the Unicorn. It follows the book pretty closely and the life-like animation is absolutely breathtaking...

That's good enough for me. Consider it watched.

Not a film but a music video from a few years back. It featured a CX which was in a chase and ended by slamming down into a underground railway. Trouble is I cant remember what the song was now!

It was irony, honest.

Watched in tonight, IRL, and it was great fun for all the family, Jim. Incredibly lifelike, very well done.

Very much enjoyed the car/van/wagon sequences. Not a dog lover meself, but Snowy came across as definitely appealing.

Cheers...
