     Verdict for the movie: Just OK. I kept waiting for something to happen . . . But the longhood was nice to see. Ian

I snapped the pics the way the scene plays. No credits for it. New York plate. Love the umbrella holding up the trunk lid . . .

Just saw that movie yesterday - I really liked it. I think Wes Anderson has some father-son issues to work out (Rushmore, Royal Tennenbaums, Life Aquatic)...
Gorgeous car, too.

So how did the 911 figure in that scene or the plot of the movie?

Out of nowhere, the boys have a flashback. They are picking their deceased father's car up at Luftwaffe Motors in NYC. It isn't ready - waiting for parts - so they try to jump start it & it just backfires. Then they try to push start it, but the tow driver almost T-bones them. Then they pust it back in & cover it. And the rest of the movie had about the same level of excitement. Beautifully filmed & good acting with a lot of subtle humor but . . . Ian
