The Lusty Men, 1952:

Another sighting in LA...
Season 4 , episode 10 of Adam-12, a white lark two door is used as a step when the guys enter a junk yard...filled with late 50s MOPARS and several Corvairs.
At first you don't see the entire car, but as they climb over the fence onto a roof I thought it looked like a Lark and I was correct.

I hope they did not knock out the left Back-up Light Lens and bumper of the '59 Lark on the "Set".

The Movie people (Cameramen) love the Dark colored Cars, they will not use White ones because of the reflection/glare.

It's probably been mentioned in this rather long thread, but.
NOT a Studebaker IN the movie, rather the NAME of the movie.
"AVANTI" 1972, Jack Lemmon, Juliet Mills. Directed by Billy Wilder.

[Hawklover]

Check out 'Sweet Smell of Success" with Curtis and Lancaster, '56 GH in the opening shots, and other Studes in street scenes

ALL Fall Down 1962 Eva Marie Saint, Warren Beatty, Karl Malden. 53 hardtop heading out of the Florida Keys in the first ten minutes.

I just spotted a '53 or 4 Starliner in the film "Blaze" with Paul Newman.

Watched a few minutes of "Peggy Sue Got Married" on TV last night...
In the scene where her dad brings home the new Edsel, the family goes out to look at the Edsel and a Studebaker Hawk cruises on by....
Couldn't tell if it was a Golden Hawk, but I'll say it was based on the neighborhood <g>...

I don't have time to read this whole thread, so this may have already been mentioned. I'm watching "Monolith Monsters" right now and there is a 1954 Studebaker Conestoga wagon in the movie. The kids were driven to the desert for a field trip in it.

A 52 commander convertible was in the movie Cry Baby with Johnny Depp and Ricki Lake. I have one but its a champion.

[Commander Eddie]

My wife got me out of bed last night to show me a beautiful yellow Lark convertible prominently shown on the episode of The Astronaut's Wives she was watching. She said that the storyline was that the wives were being chauffeured to some event in cars that matched the color of the dresses they were wearing. It was worth being dragged out of bed for. I'll see if I can get a screen grab of it to post here.

There was a 53 Starlight coupe on the right side of the street in the 1st Back To The Future movie. As Marty's car was leaving the court house.
