    I caught a glimpse of one in "Little Children".

    Just a glimpse though.

    And I'm not telling where.

    You'll just have to watch it.

    I'm embarrassed to admit that I sat through most of Failure to Launch but the Prius (with roof rack) was pretty conspicuous throughout the movie.

    One movie that website doesn't list is Relative Strangers. Ron Livingston's character drive's a silver one and it has quite a bit of screen time.

    A Prius shows up for a couple of seconds in Night at the Museum. When Ben Stiller's character is looking at the boot on the tire of his car, a Prius is making a left turn.

    Not a movie but Dennis Hopper's crib as shown in Entourage had a Prius AND Hummer parked in the driveway.

    Also, I believe Larry David drives one in Curb Your Enthusiasm.

    I do not know what movie it is but they were filming at my university and there was a Silver Pine Prius parked outside the "King County Superior Court" building with fake WA plates.

    There's too many to count, imo. The thing is that I think this is more or less true with any maintstream car. I'm sure if you were to count the civics or camrys in movies, the number would be massive. Its just that the prius is relatively new and conspicuous.
