This fragile museum, located inside of a doll house in a Ravenswood mansion, features dedicated wings for antiquated technology, stationery, and borderline incest.

WOODY ALLEN MUSEUM

SOFIA COPPOLA MUSEUM
Before exiting, a guide will whisper an inaudible secret to you that might just change the context of your relationship with the museum. (Despite being asked repeatedly, the curator continues to refuse to share what he whispered.)
STEVEN SODERBERGH MUSEUM
Even though this museum has technically quit being a museum, it still curates high profile collections while pretending it's not.
THE TIM BURTON MUSEUM
No matter how bad his work gets, Johnny Depp always gets a free pass!
KATHRYN BIGELOW MUSEUM
Despite its comparatively low budget, this award winner deservedly outshines the competition; most notably, its former partner, The James Cameron Museum.
