Independent film studio A24 raised more than $500,000 in an online charity auction on Wednesday featuring dozens of props, costumes and other memorabilia from the critically acclaimed film Everything Everywhere All At Once. A stuffed raccoon, named Raccacoonie (a play on the name of Walt Disney Co.’s Ratatouille), generated the highest bid - US$90,000 (RM403,000).
The genre-bending film follows a Chinese-American immigrant and laundromat owner, played by Michelle Yeoh, who is swept into an absurdist adventure to prevent the destruction of the multiverse. The movie is leading this year’s Oscar race with 11 nominations, including for best picture.
