[Chrysler300] Chrysler 300's in movies

["Dennis Lambert" <lampat@xxxxxxx>]

I've followed with interest the 300's that have been in movies.  One that hasn't yet made the list is the black 57 300C coupe that I owned in the 70's and that was in the Sylvester Stallone movie "Fist", part of which was filmed here in Washington, DC.  The car was used in several scenes (one in front of the White House, one in front of the Capitol building, and one in front of "Fist" headquarters), but only one scene made it past the cutting room floor when the film was edited.  My "C" was one of two cars (the other was a Cadillac) that near the end of the film delivered Stallone and his attorneys to a hearing before a Senate committee chaired by Rod Steiger, Stallone's nemesis in the story.  It's only a brief shot of the car, behind the Cadillac as they pull up in front of the hearing building.

Myth has it that Robert Mitchum used to "race" around the eastern shore of Maryland in a '56B - not in a movie, but as his personal car.  Not sure if this is true, but thought I would pass it on.
