Top of the props: meet the unsung heroes behind the memorable objects in your favourite films

It's nice that you are asking about props, because they're not really acknowledged, says Jode Mann, a TV prop master in Los Angeles. When Mann worked on the children's comedy show Pee-wee's Playhouse in the 1980s, she got a call from its star, Paul Reubens, who said he was nominating her for an Emmy.

5 Design Secrets from the Set of Clue

In 1985, this beloved board game got the silver screen treatment, with a film and set design dramatizing its intrigue and mystery. Critics at the time may have found it, in the words of the Chicago Tribune, "gimmicky," but the film version of Clue has endured as a cult classic that reimagines the whodunit board game as a playful black comedy.
