VWs in fairly new movie

Post by ZeroAxe »

Just (tried to) watch "Zodiac" tonight. The film features a:
1. White Karmann Ghia - where the couple were stabbed to death next to the lake
2. Green(ish) Beetle in the back ground (on the right) - when the Chronicle's cartoonist go and speak to one of the people he is 'investigating'. They went into the basement to go and check out dates of a film released.
3. A red 1st generation Golf - This is the cartoonist's daily driver.

Sorry, no clips. Just seen it on TV (well, the parts I caught when I wasn't shut-eye!)

That'll be it.


And for those who watch the series "Heroes" there is a Beetle featured in the episode where the Spanish girl(Maya) and her brother (Alejandro) tries to steal a car in Mexico(?) but then gets chased off into a side street....

I mentioned City of God ages ago!! :finger4u:

But yes, that is probably the movie with the most AC VWs that "I" have seen. BTW, you didnt get an English(translated) version did you? The one I 'got hold of' was sub-titled. And it just shows you that no 'monarchy' will stand for ever. There are always younger ones that'll take over.
