Overview:
In 1976, ex-Beatle George Harrision was found quilty of copyright infringement for his hit single "My Sweet Lord'. Bright Tunes Music Corporation had obtained the copyright for the 1963 hit, "He's So Fine", which was written by Ronald Mack and originally performed by the Chiffons. Did George Harrision borrow his musical ideas from Mack's hit song?
Judge yourself. See below link to listen to the two versions.

But here is my Personal Opinion:
I think the similarities between the two songs are very evident. The melody is very similar even though George Harrision's version is a little more soft compared to The Chiffons version which is slightly more up-beat and beaterer. The harmony and chordal structure I feel is somewhat a like or have some differences here and there. The instruments used are barely the same and very evident and as for the lyrics it's very evident that they are not the same.

Similarity of Lebbeus Woods and chair used in 12 Monkeys

From watching the clip from 12 Monkeys there are some similarities. I feel as though the film director or whoever manages the props, directly used Lebbeus Woods design of the chair, hoping that no one would realise. You could go on to discuss the height of the chair used in the film or how its wider than the original, but I don't think any of those statements matter. It does simply look the same as Lebbeus Woods vision of a chair in 1987.
