TOP 5 SHOCKING MOVIE JEWELRY SCENES

Jewelry props in the movies



In the some movies jewelry crosses the nexus from prop to storyline and gets top billing. Here are my top 5 favorite jewelry and timepiece movie scenes:

No. 1 FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE

In the final shoot-out scene, the manhunter with the moniker 'Man With No Name' (Clint Eastwood) reveals exactly what he did for a living before he found bounty  hunting much more profitable.


No. 2  NIGHT AFTER NIGHT

A sparkling Maudie (Mae West) tells the coat check gal, in so many words, that she’s ‘no good’.

No. 3 GOLDFINGER

007 James Bond (Sean Connery) stumbles awake after being knocked unconscious only to find that the blond he's just bedded really is a golden girl--she's dead, painted to death with gold body paint.


No 4 RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK

The evil Nazi Gestapo henchman gets branded with a Hebrew symbol from the gold and bejeweled Staff of Ra headpiece in the midst of a firefight with archaeologist Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford),  and Miriam (Karen Allen). Miriam had been wearing the staff piece as a medallion.

No. 5 TITANIC

An elderly Rose (Kate Winslet) has had a full and enriching life after surviving the Titanic’s sinking.  She now knows that she doesn’t need anymore jewelry.  So with a triumphant “Hmph…” she tosses the mega-carat heart shaped blue diamond “Heart of the Ocean” into the depths of the sea.
