Back to the Future Easter Egg - Clock Tower

Don't know if this counts as an egg, but it's something no one ever seems to notice in a movie they've seen a million times.

In the opening credits when the camera is panning across the clocks, one of them is a model of the Hill Valley clock tower complete with a Christopher Lloyd action figure dangling from the minute hand.

Kinda cool.

Actually, that is an old novelty clock from the 1920's depicting a scene from the Harold Lloyd film "Safety Last." The scene, in which Lloyd dangles from the clock high above the street, is probably the most famous image of the silent comedian, and was being paid tribute to in Back To The Future.

I thought that it was in fact Big Ben from the movie "The 39 Steps" in which the hero ends up hanging from the hands of the famous clock.
