Charade - '60s Por Larranaga Dunhill Seleccion Suprema 32

While watching the excellent Stanley Donen film, Charade, a couple nights ago, I'm almost CERTAIN that I spotted not one, not two, but at least four or five PL Dunhill Seleccion Suprema 32s (look under discontinued) in a row. The scene is in the first ~15 minutes: Audrey Hepburn's character is in a Paris police inspector's office being quizzed down about her husband's untimely death, and the camera cuts to a close-up to objects in the police inspector's desk drawer. Among notepads and other objects, a row of these beauties rests to the lower right hand corner of the frame. I noticed them because I remember how beautiful that particular band is--it's distinctive to the PL line.

Anyone else have the DVD and wish to confirm? It's the only instance I can think of in classic films where a particular brand/band is shown so prominently. Can anyone think of others?

Bump: just checked the DVD again, and it certainly seems to be this rather rare stick in the shot. It's at about 9 min. And even though they're only maybe a year or two old in that shot, they sure do look purty. The band is particularly beautiful.

For those who can't get at their MRN (or don't have one), picture a Por Larranaga band that's not the usual white lettering on gold...I would describe it more as white lettering on dark red background and extensive gold trim.

Bingo...and it's in the link I posted in the OP (gotta scroll down to see it in the discontinued area of the page).
