Pourquoi viens-tu si tard ?

Maybe I'm seeing replicas everywhere, but this one has some non-standard flares for a BJ8:

As I understand, it's an HMC.

More Renaud shades for SteveG:

Okay, hiding favorite tennis shoe and don't sneak up. The dog's additional barking was a by-the-way on how nice that Healey was, but then the main focus was almost lost during translation.

Now this is getting silly! It's like a watching a master magician in action. You know it is a trick, but you can't figure out how they do it?! I can understand how you might find a movie where and AH features significantly, but how do you find a movie with a background 100, where if you blink you miss it?

Hey Rocky, watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat. You'll have to look sharp to find the hidden Healeys in these two.

I guess this thread is about when bad things happen to Healeys, otherwise someone would post about the Father of the Bride movies with Steve Martin.

Not much of a plot line, but a bunch of Healeys and one Mini on three wheels.

What's with the side curtain with no perspex?

 

[GregW]

When the guy opened the door to get in, the reflection of the camera crew would have been seen. So they took it out. I've taken a lot of glass out of picture frames in my career for that or a reflection of a really big light. Think 6000 watts.

What's with the side curtain with no perspex?

The reflection off the Perspex interferes with the picture. I was hoping to see which side curtain style they had.

BN4s seem to be popular with film makers.

What could be more French than this? Jean-Paul Belmondo (who personally owned a Healey) in the 1960 film "Les Distractions" driving on the Champs Elysees, smoking Gauloises, and drinking wine?

...driving on the Champs Elysees, smoking Gauloises, and drinking wine?

He's my hero! I mean, as much as an admirer of British cars can be allowed to like anything French.

(Rick, you finally picked one I had seen before - I've had that one bookmarked for some time!)

Only Healey here is in the opening scene, but the full movie looks like it might be worth a watch due to the racing scenes, Here's a link to the full movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7ncweROe9U

I think this is the first one where their hair is actually blowing in the wind when driving with the top down.

Sorry I couldn't download this episode of "Heartbeat," a British police drama series set in 1960s North Riding of Yorkshire and broadcast on ITV in 18 series between 1992 and 2010. The episode linked below features lengthy scenes with a beautiful white over blue 100 with louvered bonnet and leather strap. Well worth clicking through to see the complete show.
