  • The Hyatt Regency Vancouver from “Love Happens”

    The Hyatt Regency Vancouver from “Love Happens”

    ‘ My fifth and final Love Happens location – which I found thanks to fellow stalker Owen, as was the case with all of the other Love Happens locations I stalked while in Canada two weeks ago – is the Hyatt Regency Vancouver hotel, where Burke Ryan (aka Aaron Eckhart) hosted his week-long “A-OKAY!” grief…

  • The Millennium Biltmore Hotel from “A Star Is Born”

    The Millennium Biltmore Hotel from “A Star Is Born”

    ‘ It’s not everyday you’ll find photos of a public restroom on my site.  It’s not everyday you’ll find me stalking one either.  But a couple of years ago, the Grim Cheaper and I were granted an extensive private tour of the Millennium Biltmore Los Angeles that included a visit to the hotel’s Regency Room…

  • The “(500) Days of Summer” Bench

    The “(500) Days of Summer” Bench

    ‘ Another Downtown Los Angeles location that my fiancé and I stalked this past weekend was the famous bench from 2009’s indie hit (500) Days of Summer.  A few weeks ago, fellow stalker Eileen emailed me to tell me of the bench’s location and to send me the above photograph of herself and her roommate…

    Lynn Bracken’s House

    ‘ Thanks to E.J. over at The Movieland Directory, I was able to do a bit more LA Confidential stalking this weekend. As I mentioned in a previous post, LA Confidential is one of my mom’”‘”‘s favorite movies of all time. She has always been in love with the houses and bungalows used in the…

  • Mawby’s Bar from “Flashdance”

    Mawby’s Bar from “Flashdance”

    ‘ While I am definitely a child of the ‘80s, there are some classic films from that era that I have never been a fan of.  Pretty in Pink, Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Flashdance come to mind.  Being that there’s pretty much nothing I love more than movies with musical and dance montages,…

  • San Francisco Saloon from “The Ugly Truth”

    San Francisco Saloon from “The Ugly Truth”

    ‘ Before we moved in together in 2008, the Grim Cheaper lived on the West Side of Los Angeles and, consequently, the two of us spent the majority of our time out there.  During those years, when driving back and forth from his condo, I would often pass by a bar named San Francisco Saloon. …

  • Juno’s House from “Juno”

    Juno’s House from “Juno”

    ‘ While I realize that most of my fellow stalkers are currently clamoring for me to put my Pacific Northwest blogging on hold in order to write about locales in the Southern California area, there are two more locations from the Academy Award-winning movie Juno that I wanted to blog about before doing so.  So,…

  • Arthur Abbott’s House from “The Holiday”

    Arthur Abbott’s House from “The Holiday”

    ‘ Another location from the 2006 movie The Holiday that I set out to track down last week for my Christmas-themed stalking posts was the large Mediterranean-style abode where Arthur Abbott (aka The Misfits’ Eli Wallach) lived.  Thanks to the flick’s production notes, I knew that the property was located somewhere in Brentwood and that…

  • Counterpoint Records and Books from “A Lot Like Love”

    Counterpoint Records and Books from “A Lot Like Love”

    ‘ I obviously need to start paying closer attention to things because for years I was under the impression that all of the locations from fave movie A Lot Like Love had been tracked down.  But while scanning through the 2005 romcom to make screen captures for my recent post on the home where Oliver’s…

  • Stalk Me If You Can

    Stalk Me If You Can

    ‘ I have been head over heels for Leonardo DiCaprio for what feels like pretty much my whole life – since long before Titanic, and even before the Growing Pains days. Yes, I actually sat through his first flick Critters 3. I do love me some Leo! One of my fave Leo movies (besides Titanic,…
