I also saw the Beolab 5  in Christian Bale's penthouse in Dark Knight.  Where are the wires, as in all B&O appearances and advertisements?  Anyway, its "Product Placement."  Do the manufacturers have to pay to have their products put in a movie or TV show?

There also a couple of Beovision 7s in the penthouse.

As far as I know B&O has to pay a lot to show their products in the movies.

I think TV shows are not very expensive because they don't address as much people 😮

I know for a fact that B&O has never paid anything for product placement in movies or series.

 Sometimes the tv companies(universal,paramount etc) pays the local bang & olufsen for lending them their products. They of course get some kind of help from B&O but not financial..

On an entirely different eh, subject matter - my eh, friend was telling me that apparently there's quite a lot of B&O in the background of eh, 'adult fims'...
