2005_8_8_notreallyit.jpgHello AT,

Where does the couch come from in the movie "Closer"? Yes, I mean the one which Anna (Julia Roberts) points to when confessing her indiscretions to Dr. Larry (Clive Owen). It's brown, leather and oh so yummy. The movie on the other hand was plech.

The closest I can find is this from Restoration Hardware (Picture above). But the couch in the movie is MUCH bigger and MUCH cooler. Perhaps someone out there is in the know.

Generally, how does one discover the make/brand of something seen on a movie set? Ah, the pretty talentless people and their pretty things.

Dear Lauren, Unfortunately, we don't get out to the movies very often, but we know some readers do... Can anyone help Lauren today?

(on the question of finding out what is used in movies, this is not easy. Stylists are typically hired to fill out the sets of films and they usually work freelance and have all their own favorite sources. They will also typically rent nice items from stores and use cool vintage or interesting pieces when they can find them. The couch you saw might have been a vintage find in a store in LA or NYC, etc... If you can find out the city where it was filmed, you may get close... This couch is or was probably for sale in that place. Asking here is the best bet we know of) MGR
