Antique tractors in movies

Postby Farmall560 » Sat Jan 27, 2007 6:54 pm

What big movies made since 1980 can you think of that show classic tractors?
"Brubaker" comes to mind. I believe it's a Farmall H that sounds like a JD(go figure) on the prison farm.
"War of the Worlds"(2005 version) there's a tractor in a scene with one of those alien machines next to it. I haven't been able to figure out what model?

I know there must be more, but my mind is mush with this head cold I've got going :?

The Day the Earth Stood Still has a cub in it. But it was made in the early '50's. I may have that confused with Mars Attacks, which Ithink has a Super A in it.

Makes me want to see the movies again and look for the really important star - The Cub!

While not a movie, has anyone caught that Bayer commercial? Shows a guy working his farm with an IH tractor. I only caught it once but didn't get a good look at the tractor. Resembled a 460 maybe?
