Movie (1990)
Starring:
Ray Liotta (Henry Hill)
Robert De Niro (Jimmy Conway)
Joe Pesci (Tommy DeVito)
Lorraine Bracco (Karen Hill)
Paul Sorvino (Paulie Cicero)
Henry Hill and his friends work their way up through the mob hierarchy.
Boeing 747-357
As the film jumps ahead from Henry's childhood to his adulthood, we see these jumbo jets fly over and a shot of an airport with a caption reading "Idlewild Airport 1963" (so the 747s are an anachronism since they didn't enter service until the 70s). In the voiceover Henry tells us about how he used to steal cargo from the airport.
Boeing 747-4B5F
Douglas DC-8
Idlewild Airport (nowadays John F. Kennedy International Airport). McDonnell Douglas DC-10 taking off in the background.
Both aircraft are anachronistic for this scene to a degree; Evergreen was founded in 1975, and the DC-10's first flight was in 1970.
Convair C-131 Samaritan
In fake Air France livery. Air France never operated any member the Convair 240 family. Only appears as a background object. Nose distinguishes it as a former military version.
Grumman F6F Hellcat & Grumman F4F Wildcat
Paintings on the left; F6F above, F4F below.
Aérospatiale AS355E TwinStar
In the final act of the film, as he drives around in his Cadillac, Henry keeps noticing this helicopter above him.
Registration N5776D, c/n 5030. Same aircraft in other works at IMPDb: Frequently Seen Aircraft (Rotary-Wing).
