This movie was made around the time that Robert Mitchum was sentenced for possession of pot and did some jail time. Ten years later - the Series 40 Buick was only introduced in May of 1934 and for the 1934 models there was no roadster. The line was continued for 1935 and included a roadster. The all-new 1936 models were introduced in September 1935. -- Last edit: 2025-06-08 10:55:38
