Exhibit

From Amazon.com, this is a board game based around the television program, Twenty-One, which is the subject of the film Quiz Show. I would include this in my exhibit because it is a very tangible example of American consumerism that is also deeply ingrained in the theme/topic of the film.

From Oakridge Stores, this is a small replica of a bottle of Geritol, which was the sponsor of Twenty-One. This bottle is made for a dollhouse, and is not an actual bottle of Geritol. I would include this also for the fact that it represents American consumerism, but also because it is very closely related to the film, and I think that the "dollhouse" factor is pretty neat.

From Ebay, this is a jacket similar to the one that Charles Van Doren wore in Quiz Show. I would include this because it provides some insight into class in the 1950s. One can imagine that somebody who didn't have Van Doren's seemingly affluent life wouldn't have worn this. However, I do hope the one in my gallery is a bit higher resolution than the one above.

From History for Sale, this is a signed photograph of Robert Redford, who directed Quiz Show. He is also an actor, known for films such as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, which is what the picture above is from. I would put this is my gallery because I think that it is important to not only acknowledge the actor in a film, but the director, producer, and other crew members.

From mlahart.com, this is a diploma frame from Columbia University. I would include this in my exhibit because this is the university where Charles Van Doren received his education and also was a professor at. I would probably put a fake diploma with Van Doren's name in it to clarify its presence in my exhibit.
