THE GOLDEN COMPASS (2007) Golden Alethiometer

THE GOLDEN COMPASS (2007) Golden Alethiometer An Alethiometer from Chris Weitz 2007 fantasy film The Golden Compass, starring Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig. The Alethiometer (aka the golden compass or the "truth measure") is a gadget seen throughout the film. When read properly by a sensitive such as the film's protagonist Lyra Bellaqua (Dakota Blue Richards), the device would reveal future or past events. Made of metal, this particular version of Alethiometer was used when the hero version was not required. This prop features a metallic outer casing that has been engraved with hundreds of numbers and symbols. At the press of a switch, the device opens to reveal the interior truth measure, which includes four hands that point towards the symbols that frame the interior of the device.
