Oh, and the TV show Friends in which Ross
plays a museum curator. The show
about blue coats and white coats in the lunch room is just too funny.

The film Black
Widow (1987) was filmed in part at the Burke Museum of Natural
History in Seattle. The wealthy and charming "widow" (Theresa
Russell) and investigator (played by Debra Winger) have several scenes in
various museum offices and a collections storage room (at least the set
designer's conception of a storage room, since they were not allowed to film in
the real one).

I just thought of another... although not an entire
movie, the scenes
involving the museum curator in Waiting for Guffman are pretty funny.
