Oliver tractor in a movie

In the movie "Getting married in Buffalo Jump" there are several tractors that appear. The one used by Paul Gross who plays "Alex" is an Oliver with a front end loader that effectively hides the model number of the tractor. Anyone know the model of the tractor?
 
There is an Oliver tractor in the last part of the Shawshank Redemption. Red sees it from the bus window as the bus is heading away from the Portland area. That Oliver is also somewhat obscured by the loader on it. It's a pre four digit. Maybe a 770 or 880.
 
I haven't been to a movie in ages. Last Oliver I remember on the tube, was Oliver Douglas, who ran a Hoyt-Clagwell.
 
There's also an Oliver in "Walk the Line" the Johnny Cash movie. He was on it while high on drugs and ended up backing it or letting it roll back into a lake. Don't know the model since I'm not familiar with Olivers. Not many of them here in the South.
 
A scene in The Heat of the Night takes place in the mayor's tractor dealership, Farmall, if I remember. They had tractors in the field harvesting cotton and a couple rolling through town.
 
It was a Oliver 77. They used 2 of them in the movie, 1 that ran and 1 that had all the fluids drained and went into the lake.--Tee
 
They had a tractor in Sweet Land? They harvested by hand, was thinking they planted with horses. Been a while since I've seen it, Gus's it was set when cars were running so I'm just forgetting it.

Now you'll have me searching the internet again looking for that, saw it on PBS years ago and on This TV a few years ago......

In Green Acres wasn't the tractor in the opening of the show each week a different tractor than what was in the actual episodes
 
the movie "cousins" Ted Danson and Rossellini I think were the stars, anyway they are off for a getaway and a fella is in a hay field with a 1900 best I can tell.
