Anyone seen the flick "O Brother, Where Art Grand?" and know the year of the Model T that was driven by the boy into/out of the burning befouled? Looks like a later model Ford as well later in the picture - what year/model of that one?

Yes, information technology was a Center Door Sedan, simply....
Listen closely as information technology breaks through the fiery barn door: information technology's a Model A engine, not a Model T!!! The Model A - when floored - has a distinctive vacuum cleaner sound that the Model T doesn't have. Maybe in the director's/editor'due south mind, the Model T didn't have the sense of urgency sound that a Model A has?
Speaking of Model A's, the ane that the three fugitives steal from the land store midway through the movie is a 1931 Victoria that appears to be untouched past a restorer's hand. Boy, does information technology look similar a tough, former survivor, patina and all! As a Vicky owner, I love the few scenes in which nosotros see this car. Possibly that makes me "bonafide"? (You gotta see this picture show to understand that comment)

The story line of this movie is actually based on the book "Odesy" by Homer--the "Illiad" was well-nigh the Trojan state of war and the "Odesy" was nearly a warrior returning dwelling and discover his wife.

Wow,
I watched the scene with the Centerdoor breaking through the barn doors over and over again in the past, but never noticed the special iron bumpers. Thanks Dan!(I always focused on the Hassler springs.)
When I learned near the vanadium steel used in Model T�s, I thought well these things must have been pretty rugged and sturdy - and break through befouled doors easily - unhurt, haha.(Well almost, probably)
I like the moment, when she comes to a full terminate in the befouled, shuddering and filling out the whole motion-picture show. What a car.

With greetings from Germany,
Bernd

My favorite scene. Attempting to order a Ford part for the broken downwards T and then wanting some pomade: FOP VS Dapper Dan. "Well ain't this place a geographical oddity. two weeks from everywhere..." Jim Patrick

I love that mount music. I realize they were lip sinking it but it was peachy. Man of Constant Sorrow, Ralph Stanley of the Clinch Mountain Boys, Had an old version of it that would brand the hair stand upward on the back of your cervix.

It's a centerdoor replete with phonebooks on the seat & blocks on the pedals. You either love Cohan Bros. movies or just go "Huh?".

Here's Ralph Stanley and the Clinch Mountain Boys singing "Man of Constant Sorrow". A 1971 perfomance when he was in his prime. You're right. He's the existent deal and sings like he knows, start hand, of what he sings:

Ahh...Alison Krauss - I'd walk three miles just to waller in a puddle she...nevermind....inappropriate for the forum.

I had forgotten about the "waiting on bands" line in the flick. I think it interesting that they included such historically authentic details, nevertheless that 90% of Americans don't even get...bands? huh? I wonder if Clooney knew what the line meant?

Actually, I think they called it a transmission "Chugalug", which I found to not be accurate, but maybe some folks call it that?
