Neither of those tragedies strike me as 'music', or a 'safe'

And it isn't even Hollywood.

In Agatha Christie's Poirot is a episode where somebody is locked in in a bank vault, but they didn't use a real one but built a fake one for this.

Do you recall the title?

Actually it was Father Brown S3E10 The Judgement Of Man.

But in Agatha Christie's Poirot S3E3 The Million Dollar Bond Robbery was the inside of a bank vault.

There is a Poirot where someone is locked in a vault, but I am not sure that it was a bank vault- more a sort of a book safe type. I don't remember which story it was, though.

Speaking of front doors, this is the side entrance to Tobacco Alley of Midland, Texas:

A while back there was mention of the movie Ocean's 8 and a vault door at 120 Broadway in New York City. It turns out that Cartier had a smaller replica built to celebrate and promote their involvement in the movie -



As far as prop doors go, it's quite good. Here's a closeup of the door itself -



It's a very good representation of the Strauss mechanism except the central round portion appears to be completely see-through. Overall I'd still give it an A+.

More vault art, this one was in London's Waterloo Station around 2008 --

Another movie vault door, this one is from a French movie "Any Number Can Win" --
