  • The “It’s A Wonderful Life” Train Station

    The “It’s A Wonderful Life” Train Station

    ‘ If there is anything I have learned over the past ten-plus years that I have lived in Southern California, it is that stalking tips often come from the most unlikely of places.  Take for instance this past weekend.  The Grim Cheaper’s father has long been a collector of model trains, so last Sunday afternoon…

  • Grandma Bunny’s House from “You Again”

    Grandma Bunny’s House from “You Again”

    ‘ As I mentioned in last Friday’s post, the hunt for Aunt Mitsy’s (aka Kathy Bates’) house from Rumor Has It actually began when fellow stalker Geoff, from the 90210Locations website, asked for some help in tracking down the abode where Grandma Bunny (aka Betty White) lived in the 2010 flick You Again.  I immediately…

  • The “You’ve Got Mail” Breakup Restaurant

    The “You’ve Got Mail” Breakup Restaurant

    ‘ Locations from the movie You’ve Got Mail have been well-documented online on countless sites.  I chronicled quite a few of them on mine – in a December 2007 post, as well as in follow-up posts that you can read here and here.  One spot that hasn’t been mentioned anywhere and one that I was…

  • Ashley’s Apartment from “Just My Luck”

    Ashley’s Apartment from “Just My Luck”

    ‘ I do not have the best taste in movies and am the first to admit it.  Case in point – Just My Luck, a 2006 Lindsay Lohan romcom that I absolutely love.  Have I lost you already?  If so, it’s understandable.  But I find the film adorable.  I’ve seen it about a hundred times…

  • The “Twins” House

    The “Twins” House

    ‘ A few weeks ago, fellow stalker Owen asked for my help in locating Danny DeVito‘”‘”‘s Mediteranean style home from the 1988 comedy Twins.  Owen had already done quite a bit of stalking legwork on this one and had managed to contact one of the movie’”‘”‘s crew members who told him that the house was located on a numbered street near…

  • Ashton Kutcher’s House from “A Lot Like Love”

    Ashton Kutcher’s House from “A Lot Like Love”

    ‘ My stalking hero Mike, from , has done it yet again! 🙂 The two of us have been looking for Ashton Kutcher’”‘”‘s parents’”‘”‘ house from my fave romantic comedy for a while now. I really had no hope of ever finding the home, as I had no idea what city it was located in…

  • The Brass Monkey Bar from “Bad Santa”

    The Brass Monkey Bar from “Bad Santa”

    ‘ Another Christmas-themed location that I stalked recently was the Brass Elephant bar – the Monrovia-area watering hole that stood in for the similarly-named “Brass Monkey” bar where Sue (aka Lauren Graham) worked in my least-favorite holiday movie of all time, 2003’s Bad Santa.  Fellow stalker Chas, from the It’sFilmedThere website, had tracked down the…

  • Jan’s Duplex from “Beautiful Girls”

    Jan’s Duplex from “Beautiful Girls”

    ‘ One of the locations that I was most excited about stalking while in Minnesota three weeks ago (and I can hardly even believe that it’s already been three weeks!) was the duplex where Jan (aka Martha Plimpton) lived in fave movie Beautiful Girls.  The residence is actually located in Hopkins, a city about thirteen…

  • Trudi’s Apartment Building from “L.A. Story”

    Trudi’s Apartment Building from “L.A. Story”

    ‘ Last month, when I published my post on the location of the iconic talking freeway sign from L.A. Story, a friend named David, whom I met in an acting class years ago, sent me a Facebook message letting me know that the unique, modern-style apartment building where Trudi (Marilu Henner) lived in the flick…

  • The Novel Café from “Little Black Book”

    The Novel Café from “Little Black Book”

    ‘ This past Saturday, after stalking the New Girl apartment building, which I blogged about on Monday, the Grim Cheaper and I decided to grab a bite to eat at one of the many Arts District (my new favorite neighborhood!) restaurants nearby.  We ended up settling on The Novel Café, just down the street from…
