One of the good ones is "Rafferty and the Gold Dust Twins" from 1975.

If you watch closely you might be able to spot the 1966 Mercury Comet.

IIRC they were driving a different '60's Mercury as well.

I highly recommend "The Kominsky Method" on Netflix (2018-2021) with Alan Arkin and Michael Douglas.

Isnt that alan aldo, not alan arkin?

Do you mean Alan Alda? In any case, the answer is no, which you could have easily discovered by googling.

Sometimes it's more fun to just be wrong about it

He left behind quite a legacy. I will always remember him as Dr. Oatman in Grosse Point Blank [1] despite that being a fairly small role.

I know many people had trouble with the adaptation, but he is truly amazing as Mr Singer in The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter.

And of course The In-Laws. Great in everything really.

Rewatched Glengarry tonight. His role isn’t huge but it’s such a good movie.

"Grosse Pointe Blank" is one of my favorites because of Alan Arkin.

This. That's funny that this was the first thing I thought of too. It wasn't really a huge part but Arkin made it work.

The performance had a humor to it that revolved equal parts nervousness and exasperation.

"Emergency! Everybody to get from street!"

Probably my favorite movie line.

RIP, I really enjoyed his performance in Little Miss Sunshine
