Imperial got a proper make only in 1955. This is a rare 1951 Chrysler Crown Imperial [C-53]. Cf. http://www.flickr.com/photos/21684795@N05/3834340517/ -- Last edit: 2013-09-28 12:52:14 |

It's the kind of shot which says that the director was rather fond of cars. It has absolutely no relevance with the story, like the long sequence of tourists cars at the Italian-Swiss border. Or the old Ford in Cairo. And some others. |

"It's the kind of shot which says that the director was rather fond of cars." I wonder what went wrong. Don't see that attitude now. |

Same car, same day, same director, but not exactly the same footage, for another film he was making: /vehicle_733785-Chrysler-Crown-Imperial-C-53-1951.html |

There are a lot of movies where cars are well handled rather than damaged/destroyed ![]() |

There is a bit more than that here, antp: some rather rare or well preserved cars were amorously filmed, though absolutely not connected to the action. A crush of the director or of the main operator, maybe. And probably an opportunistic choice. |
