Movie-goers might notice contemporary home furnishings vendor Phillips Collection's award-winning seat belt chairs in the hit movie The Hunger Games.

Eight green seat belt dining chairs surrounded an ultra-modern dining table in the penthouse training apartment depicted in the film.

Company President and CEO, Mark Phillips, shared, "It goes without saying that this is unbelievable exposure for Phillips Collection," said President and CEO Mark Phillips. "What is most exciting is how many of our customers and fans have called in letting us know they saw the movie and immediately noticed our chairs."

The Hunger Games brought in $155 million on the opening weekend, the third-biggest opening in movie history for a non-sequel.

The chairs were purchased by set designer Margaret Hungerford, whose firm is based in North Carolina. Other movie sets she's furnished include ones for Minority Report and Contagion.

Phillips Collection offers the seat belt chair in a variety of sizes, colors and materials.
