A24 Sold Props & Costumes from Everything Everywhere All at Once
Everything Everywhere All at Once was nominated for 11 Oscars this year and won seven of them. The breakout indie hit also has a large, affectionate fan following, so it was no wonder that A24, the independent studio that made the movie, auctioned its memorable set pieces, props, and costumes.

The film's official Pet Rock merch has already sold out, and shoppers were even spending $35 for a rock with googly eyes on it. On top of that, fans of the film and its pet rocks could actually purchase the real deal after A24 announced it was selling the memorable props, among other memorabilia. Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, who are collectively known as "the Daniels," were in charge of Everything Everywhere All at Once. The plot of the movie revolves around a Chinese immigrant named Evelyn, played by Michelle Yeoh, who discovers the ability to jump between different alternate universes. Each universe contains a different version of her life with her husband, Waymond, played by Ke Huy Quan, and her daughter, Joy, played by Stephanie Hsu.

The experience of feeling inundated with numerous narratives simultaneously while also experiencing emotions such as laughter, tears, confusion, and fear, is examined in the movie. The items that were available for purchase included Waymond's chapstick, Evelyn's hot dog costume, and Raccacoonie, among others. The auction was conducted until March 2nd, and it was divided into three segments. The money raised from the sale was distributed among three charitable organizations. Everything Everywhere All at Once cannot be easily classified into one genre as it incorporates various elements of science fiction, romance, family drama, and more. The movie is a mix of emotions as it contains moments of humor, absurdity, and heartbreak. Its underlying themes include generational trauma, love, family, acceptance, immigrant experiences, and the commonplace aspects of modern life. Interestingly, a significant portion of the film is set in an IRS office.
