MOVIE TRIVIA … 10 MEMORABLE MOVIE CARS

MOVIE TRIVIA …

10 MEMORABLE MOVIE CARS

most-memorable-cars

Cult British film director, Christopher Petit, who once remarked that to steer behind the wheel of a moving car is the quintessential cinematic experience. A sublime marriage of machine, driver and journey where the windshield becomes the frame, the accelerator creates the action and the stereo supplies the soundtrack.

The ubiquitous automobile has, for decades, pervaded our psyches and our films to such a degree that it, quite often, has stolen the show completely.

Now, there’s only so much to remark about a million-dollar actor, inside a million-dollar car, within a million-dollar chase sequence. The memorable movie cars below had something more than just horsepower going their way. They packed their very own star power too. Unforgettable anthropomorphised automobiles that not only transported their human co-stars but also the story to somewhere otherwise unreachable.
