  • The Witch’s House from “Clueless”

    The Witch’s House from “Clueless”

    ‘ One of my favorite sites to stalk in all of Beverly Hills is known simply as “The Witch’”‘”‘s House” and it just so happens to fit in perfectly with this month’”‘”‘s Halloween theme. Although not really a filming location, the house is a Beverly Hills landmark of sorts. Known formally as “The Spadena House”,…

    Killer Café from “Enough”

    ‘ One location that I had been dying to stalk for close to a decade was Edie’s Diner, the 50s-style restaurant in Marina Del Rey that stood in for Phil’s Famous Red Car Diner where Slim Hiller (Jennifer Lopez) worked – and met her reprobate husband, Mitch Hiller (Billy Campbell) – in the 2002 thriller…

    Alverno High School from “Passport to Paris”

    ‘ As I promised in Tuesday’s post, here is a photograph of me dressed as Buffy the Vampire Slayer for Halloween back in 1992.  My mom made the costume for me by hand and she made it absolutely PERFECT, so I was especially excited to tell Kristy Swanson about it when I met her this…

    The One&Only Palmilla Resort

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I just returned from our Cabo San Lucas honeymoon this past Tuesday evening and, let me tell you, we couldn’t have been sadder to say good-bye to the place!  We had an amazing time in Mexico – relaxing, swimming, sunbathing, and, of course, stalking.  And while I have plans to…

  • The “FlashForward” FBI Headquarters Building

    The “FlashForward” FBI Headquarters Building

    ‘ I was thoroughly disappointed to learn about the cancellation of the ABC television series FlashForward earlier this week, as the show was one of my favorites of the 2009 Fall Season.  What makes the cancellation most heartbreaking, though, for me at least, is the fact that because the season finale was filmed long before…

  • Footsies Bar from “Bad Santa”

    Footsies Bar from “Bad Santa”

    ‘ One location that has been a thorn in my side for as long as I can remember is the gorgeous wood-paneled bar featured in the opening scene of Bad Santa.  Despite having contacted several crew members and spending copious amounts of time searching for it online, I just cannot seem to find the place…

  • Skylark Hotel from “Palm Swings”

    Skylark Hotel from “Palm Swings”

    ‘ One of the best parts of starting this blog is the many connections I’ve been able to make with people who share this unique predilection of mine.  I recently had the pleasure of meeting up with mid-century-modern-house-stalker George Smart, of the USModernist website, who was in town for Palm Springs’ annual Modernism Week.  He…

  • The Pierre Hotel’s Grand Ballroom from “Trainwreck”

    The Pierre Hotel’s Grand Ballroom from “Trainwreck”

    ‘ I know I am in the minority when I say that I don’t think Amy Schumer is funny.  And it’s not for lack of trying on my part.  I first learned of the comedian when she appeared on Kaitlyn Bristowe’s season of The Bachelorette and found her schtick to be a bit annoying.  Despite…

  • The “It’s Complicated” House

    The “It’s Complicated” House

    ‘ This past weekend, I dragged my new husband out to Westlake Village to see a home that I’ve been absolutely dying to stalk ever since I tracked down its location a little over two months ago – the adobe-style ranch where Jane Adler (aka Meryl Streep) lived in the 2009 Nancy Meyers-directed romantic comedy…
