I never thought of having my wife lined over. Hmm...you've given me a lot to think about, Michaelson...that next anniversary...I think I'll have the little missus re-upholstered.
Agreed, you often just don't know what the movie is at the time they are making it.
Example: I take my little girls for a drive on a road around the outside of our penninsula when I can't get them down for a nap. Sometimes we stop at the overlooks to check out the view. One time we could see a movie set on the next bluff over, and it was cool to watch. Odd, really, to see a castle on a cliff and British soldiers standing on the parapets...someone said it was for some pirate movie, but nobody knew what.
You guessed it, I was looking at the back of the set for Pirates Of The Caribbean! Check out the location shooting section on the DVD extras, and when you get to the section on Rancho Palos Verdes, you'll see the exact set I'm talking about.
I *think* my jacket was probably made about the same time as the WotW jackets (or did that turn out not to be Peter?), but it's only by guessing afterwards. I don't think there's ever a way to know for sure at the time, but often they can't say, it's being developed under some other working title, or it's a movie nobody's heard of (like that Pirate movie).
Regards! Michaelson
