The Polar Express
I saw the movie last night, very good one that I recommend for any age.
Amongst the animators for this movie, a Hudnut must lurk.
I spotted two Hudson stepdowns in this movie.
without revealing too much about the movie (don't wanna spoil it for anybody), the first appearance I noticed was on Christmas morning as the young lad looked out the window: A Green '54 stepdown half covered in snow, complete with red "Hudson" grille badge. its in the lower, left half of the screen as he looks outside.
I kinda blinked twice not really believing it to be what I thought it was.
Then, the second unmistakable Hudson. As the lad runs downstairs and the screen pans around the bottom of the x-mas tree, a finely detailed toy stepdown of 51-52 vintage - this little car and its grille are unmistakenly Hudson. Even my wife caught the second one.
I thought this may be of interest, it certainly was a nice ending to a movie I enjoyed a great deal.
