What happens to the props once a movie has completed principal photography.?

Question

I know that some things are auctioned off or put in museums but what about everything else that is specific to a particular film. For example, the soap that Tyler Durden made in Fight Club or Forrest Gump's Nike shoes. What happens to this stuff and how would someone go about getting it?

Answer 2

Yesterday my son was ill. We rented a documentary called "Paper Clips." It's about some very ordinary people in Tennessee who responded to the "closed files" of the Holocaust. Like Gene and the poster who followed him, I think the results were pretty clear. The human spirit can reach back to those who are gone, and forward to those who are not born yet. It may be a trick of the "data processing device," or brain, but the effect is just as real as if the love had physical substance. Love between ordinary humans is the stuff of creativity, kindness, and heroism. That's the stuff of history, and the stuff of the future. While I believe that humans are basically good, I also think hatred has the capacity to live beyond its human host. The stuff of cowardice, cruelty, and destruction are also the stuff of history, and can be the stuff of the future. It is that human organic file that decides which.
