HAVE YOU SEEN ANY FILMS WITH OLD TOYS IN THEM?

I can think of two movies featuring old toys off hand: Salem's Lot and Super 8.

There must be loads more.

Any ideas readers?

  1. Hi Woodsy,

    A friend of mine has been collecting scenes in movies showing toys. You can see his compilation (he still has many to add to the list, I think) here:

    The first list is movies, the second list (with very few points) is TV series.

    Alternatively you can use this tag:

  2. And I recently saw in a magazine some pictures from the movie Carol (Todd Haynes, 2015). There you can find at least one scene that happens in a toy store from 1952. Very nice scenery!

    I would like to see the movie soon, I think it is quite good.

  3. I saw a Quercetti Fireball XL5 in an episode of The Saint. In fact, it was Simon Templar himself who was holding it.

    1. Fireball XL5 AND the Saint! What's not to like! Its like the Green Hornet playing with Major Matt Mason! Hmm. Maybe I should rephrase that!
