The Rocky Horror Coffin Clock
It is quite surprising yo discover that some of the props used in tv/movies/theatre are actual real objects that just "fit", but it makes sense if one thinks about it.<p>I think I heard the story of a "lost" Hungarian picture rediscovered through becoming a movie prop on HN some time ago, and while not as interesting as the clock coffin, it's still quite good[0].<p>[0] <a href="https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2014/nov/27/stuart-little-art-historian-long-lost-hungarian-masterpiece" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2014/...</a>
