Not saying the best, but I'll throw in some honorable mentions-
- Al Pacino in Heat (Colt Officer's)
- Johnny Strong in Sinners & Saints (TRP) and Daylight's End (Colt Gov't)
- Colin Farrell and the rest of the team in SWAT (Kimber TLE II, I think?)
- John Berenthal in the Punisher series on Netflix (another Kimber)
- Brad Pitt in Mr/Mrs Smith (Colt Gov't)
- Even John Wick cameo'd a Kimber in JW2
How ‘bout one Colt that didn’t get its justified cameo appearance by Faye Dunaway in the 1967 movie, “Bonnie and Clyde”. Bonnie reportedly had it in her lap and it fell and was found on the floorboard.
Did you not see Willis loading something like 50 mags in the bar scene towards the end of the movie?!!! His trench coat and carry rig must have weighed 16lbs apiece!!!
Tom Hanks in Saving Private Ryan! Can’t think about that without getting choked up. Best WWII movie I’ve ever seen. Perfect that he would keep firing his 1911 against all odds!
I am in agreement here. That Government Model is on display from at first when he pulls it out of the custom insert of the glove box of that Pontiac until the final shootout. Close second would be the Officer's Model that Al Pacino carries in Heat and then Tom Hanks in Saving Private Ryan.
