Watched a bit of a quirky movie from 2008, late last night, that briefly featured a V8 Packard - "Revolutionary Road".

Near the end, after the wife (played by Kate Winslet) dies in the hospital, her husband (played by Leonardo DiCaprio) is seen running down the road past several parked cars. One of them appears to be a white/black 55 Packard - a 400, I think. Because the scene was rather dark, they must have felt that they could repeat it for dramatic effect, as he appears to run past the same car multiple times.
