Movie Quilts
#1
So last night, we were watching "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" on DVD, and it's set (mostly) in Hawaii at a luxury hotel. I kept getting distracted by the beautiful Hawaiian applique on the dining room chairs and tablecloths (and hoping that it was a print and that someone didn't have to make all those by hand!), and then the really gorgeous quilted & appliqued pillows on all the beds (completely distracting me from the sex scene happening on top of the pillows).
"The Birdcage" has some really nice star quilts that show up in Senator Keeley's New England home. The one on the bed was a white-on-white.
And I'm wondering what other people's favorite "quilt movies" are?

Yes, the Birdcage was a good one. When it gets close to Halloween, be sure to watch Sleepy Hollow (the one with Johnny Depp) There are some wonderful old looking quilts there.

I just remembered another one (that I'm going to have to re-watch), and it's an unexpected source -- Star Trek: Insurrection. I'm going to have to get a screen capture of the art quilt in that movie (and I think they may have actually given credit for it in the credits...)

Yes, it was beautiful! And I would loved to have seen it a bit longer.
