I would say my first pick is '' Charlie Chaplin and 1926 Model T Ford in "Modern Times" -1936 '' but following closely with Stan & Olie (Laurel & Hardy)

Harold Lloyd's film, Get Out and Get Under, has a lot of T scenes and action. You can watch it free on YouTube. It has a great scene where he climbs into the engine compartment to fix it. :D

Frankie Drake Mysteries on TV 2017 - 2021.
Nearly all set vehicles were Model T's.

I drive a Model T ... Microseconds don't matter :D

For every Absolute Model T Fact there are at least three exceptions.

Get Put And Get Under has the greatest Model T/ silent movie joke. Harold is tinkering with the motor when the whole car starts trembling. Being a silent movie, we think the car started. Harold is in a silent movie so he thinks the car started! Jumps in, stamps on the clutch, nothing happens. Looks over his shoulder, the little kid who has been annoying him is bouncing on the running board making the car bounce about. Brilliant!

"Lawless" is one of my favorite movies, and has quite a few Model Ts

I just watched "Babylon" recently, which I thought was lousy movie, but had a lot of T's and T-era cars. One scene used the same TT truck with the modern drivetrain (rear axle being visibly much later era) as was used in "Lawless". In the scene, it showed the actor racing to get somewhere, with a shot of a speedometer hitting 60mph in what you're supposed to presume is a stock TT. :lol:

So here is a rare classic that’s full Ts. For you Iron Maiden fans out there you may remember these movies clips were used for their “Run for the hills” video.
