Went to see this movie today that was based on the grandson of J. Paul Getty kidnapping.
There were two scenes in the movie that showed nice double guns, first was Getty watching two young ladies at his estate shooting trap being thrown by a guy sitting on a clay target thrower. And the second one was him in his gun room cleaning one of his Purdey's I suppose.
Just neat to see.

With his money and as much as he loved the English country and culture he probably had a whole room full of them.
Good movie?

What is the title of the movie? Is it "All the Money in the World"?

There were nice driven game scenes in Out of Africa right at the beginning of the movie. Great one to watch few times over as time goes by. Another good hunting movie was White Hunter Black Heart with Clint.

I believe Getty at least had a pair of Westley Richards 20 bores w 27in barrels as I brought the empty case with his name on it.
I have often wondered what the guns looked like.

"The Shooting Party" is also well worth watching.
