Just finished watching a 1955 RKO movie, "Slightly Scarlet,", starring John Payne, Rhonda Fleming, Arlene Dahl, and a host of MoPars. There are lots of good shots of Rhonda Fleming driving her '55 Plymouth convertible, peach with black Sport Tone, John Payne drives a '41 Plymouth coupe til he moves up in the mob and gets a blue '55 New Yorker convertible with white sweep, the bad guys drive a blue Imperial sedan with white top, police black & whites are '55 Plymouths [also '54 Nash], etc. Didn't see any DeSotos though. The movie isn't much, must have been one of RKO's last flix, but the cars are great. --Roger van Hoy, '55DeSoto, '42DeSoto, '66Plymouth, '73Duster, Washougal, WA |
