Santa Monica Cop
‘ This weekend I dragged my boyfriend to stalk the mansion that Eddie Murphy and his new cop buddies storm at the end of the movie Beverly Hills Cop. The house is not actually located in Beverly Hills, but a good 20 minutes in Santa Monica. The home is absolutely ginormous – I mean the…

Mayfield Senior School from “All About Steve”
‘ Stalkings can come about from the most random of situations. Many, many moons ago, I joined a grief group (long story) where I met a woman who worked at Mayfield Senior School in Pasadena. During one of our sessions, she happened to mention that filming took place on the campus regularly and my ears…

Another Day of Cleaning . . .
‘ I swear, I feel like all I do is clean lately! I have not mentioned this before, but the Grim Cheaper and I have a vacation rental that I clean almost weekly. The GC is also starting a new company with his boss, so I have been doing all of the cooking over the…

The Fremont Troll from “10 Things I Hate About You”
‘ Another location that I stalked while visiting the Pacific Northwest this past May was a famous Seattle-area sculpture known as the Fremont Troll, which appeared in a brief scene in the 1999 teen comedy 10 Things I Hate About You. The Troll, which weighs two tons and was built out of wire, ferroconcrete, and…

Leo’s Apartment Building from “Relativity”
‘ During my recent Relativity location-finding fest, I also managed to track down the apartment building where Leo Roth (David Conrad) lived with his quirky roommate, Doug (Adam Goldberg) – who was actually my favorite character – on the show. I really could kick myself over this one, though, because I began searching for the…

The “Ocean’s Eleven” House
‘ One location that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk last weekend while vacationing in Palm Springs was the supposed-Las-Vegas, Nevada-area residence where Reuben Tishkoff (aka Elliot Gould) lived in the 2001 heist movie Ocean’s Eleven. I had absolutely fallen in love with the mid-century-modern-style residence while first watching the film just about…

Nakatomi Plaza from “Die Hard”
‘ Because we are currently knee deep in the middle of the Christmas Season – which just so happens to be my favorite season 🙂 – I decided to focus my next few blog posts on locations featured in holiday movies. And what better way to start off those Christmas posts than to blog about…

The Other “Catch Me If You Can” House
‘ A few years ago during an acting class, my very favorite acting teacher, Annie, happened to mention that the Catch Me If You Can house was located just around the corner from where she then lived in Studio City. She said she had been walking her dogs one afternoon back in 2002 and had…

“The Hogan Family” House
‘ One Pasadena area filming location that I had long assumed was well-known in the stalking community was the home where the Hogan family lived in the 1986 television sitcom Valerie, aka Valerie’s Family, aka The Hogan Family. So, the other day when I happened to point out the location to Mike, from MovieShotsLA, while…
