Sometimes it seems like we have said everything that we needed to say about the Classis Eames Lounge Chair & Ottoman<\/strong><\/a>. A timeless piece of furniture, it is an unbeatable best-seller that everyone who\u2019s able to buy should own at least for a brief period of time.<\/p>\n

Since it\u2019s so special, those big black cushions on that stylish wood finish, have given comfort to many characters in hundreds of memorable scenes in both TV and film.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a revised collection of the most iconic moments of\u00a0the Eames chair<\/strong>\u00a0in the audiovisual medium:<\/p>\n

Closer (2004)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Directed by Mike Nichols,\u00a0Closer<\/em>\u00a0tells a story of four people in and out of love. Alongside the lowest lows of the human heart, this film also depicts one of the highest highs of home design.<\/p>\n

Hugh Laurie was already a very famous UK actor, but when he played American physician Gregory House for Universal Channel, he became a TV icon. As such, he deserves to rest his legs (or even pass out) on another icon,\u00a0the classic Eames Lounge Chair & Ottoman<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Click (2006)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

One of Adam Sandler\u2019s most loved (and hated) flicks. Personally, we enjoy the fact that his primary living room chair is\u00a0a gorgeous Eames<\/strong>. And we get quite the close-up on it too!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Gossip Girl (2007-2012)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

The chair<\/strong>\u00a0actually appears more than a couple of times on this beloved drama show that started on the TV channel now known as CW.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Iron Man (2008)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tony Stark sat on the chair more than once on the Iron Man films, but in the first movie, we see it right across from a gorgeous Castiglioni Arco Lamp. It seems that the genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist is a real fan of mid-century furniture<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Massive Attack \u2013 Inertia Creeps (2009)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Since this is a music video some people might get confused at its inclusion on this list. However, we invite you to check it out, you won\u2019t regret it: we get different shots of lowly-lit Eames<\/strong> in various angles, shadows and light caressing its interiors and wooden finish in high-definition. It almost a TV ad for the chair (as if it needed one, but well)<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A\u00a0cartoon version of the Eames appears at a secret agent gathering in this FX black comedy series. Directed by Mike Nichols, Closer tells a story of four people in and out of love. Alongside the lowest lows of the human heart, this film also depicts one of the highest highs of home design.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tron: Legacy\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A sequel set 28 years in the future from the 1982 original,\u00a0Tron: Legacy\u00a0<\/em>featured many design throwbacks. Along a few other famous icons, an\u00a0all-white Eames<\/strong>\u00a0sits comfortably in the background like a silent queen.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Housemaid\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

This South Korean thriller was very popular in the United States. It takes the second spot of this list for its breathtaking accommodation of\u00a0the Eames<\/strong>, right before the viewer\u2019s line of sight. Here we can see what such an object conveys: comfort, but also power, and luxury.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hope Springs\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

This comedy-drama features\u00a0a very beautiful and true-to-design replica of the Eames<\/strong>, which serves as the main throne for Steve Carrell, who plays a psychiatrist in the movie.<\/p>\n

Honorable Mention:\u00a0Mad Men\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Though the award-winning\u00a0Mad Men<\/em> doesn\u2019t feature an Eames Lounge chair, we had to make special mention of its unparalleled attention to detail and inclusion of other Eames classics. The Eames Executive Office Chair<\/strong> (or Lobby Chair, above) is shown countless times in the meeting room, with the Eames Aluminum Group Management Office Chair<\/strong><\/a> in tow and featured prominently (below<\/p>\n
