    A Drink with the Dearly Departed

    ‘ This past Saturday night, thanks to E.J. over at The Movieland Directory who made the introduction, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, his fiance, my boyfriend, and I met up with Scott Michaels, creator and founder of both the Find-A-Death website and the Dearly Departed Tour Company. Scott’”‘”‘s tours and website both focus on famous Hollywood death…

    Valentino from “Pretty Woman”

    ‘ Pretty Woman is one of the most well-documented movies out there when it comes to locations.  Oddly though, despite the legions of websites and books with sections dedicated to its locales, I have yet to see identified the Rodeo Drive shop where Vivian Ward (Julia Roberts) and Edward Lewis (Richard Gere) spent an “obscene…

  • That Pink Door

    That Pink Door

    ‘ I have yet to really hop aboard the Pinterest bandwagon, but I know I’m in the minority on that one.  Those who are Pinterest-philes are most definitely familiar with what has come to be known as “That Pink Door.”  That Pink Door is actually the brightly-hued front door of a residence in the Indian…

  • The “Teen Wolf” Party House

    The “Teen Wolf” Party House

    ‘ As I mentioned in the post I wrote back in January about the residence where Pamela Wells (aka Lorie Griffin) lived in Teen Wolf, fellow stalkers Chas, from the ItsFilmedThere website, and Owen recently embarked upon a mission to track down all of the locations used in the 1985 comedy.  One of the locales…

    The Site of Ariel’s House from “L.A. Story”

    ‘ One L.A. Story location that I tracked down and stalked months ago, but has since become a bit of a conundrum to me, is the apartment building – or house – where Ariel (Susan Forristal), the best friend of wacky weatherman Harris K. Telemacher (Steve Martin), lived.  Finding the locale was pretty much a…

    As If!

    Villa Sorriso – The Restaurant Where Michael Jackson’s “Celebration of Life” Reception Was Held

    ‘ One location that I stalked quite a while back, but, for whatever reason, have yet to blog about is Villa Sorriso Ristorante – the Italian eatery where the Jackson family hosted the September 3, 2009 “Celebration of Life” reception for pop star Michael Jackson following his burial at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale. …

  • Julia Child’s Childhood Home

    Julia Child’s Childhood Home

    ‘ One of the best things about being a member of the Screen Actors Guild is that each and every January all guild members receive, often without notice, DVDs of various movies that have been nominated for an upcoming SAG award.  These DVDs are doled out “for your consideration” so that members can watch them…

    Martin Luther King Day!

    ‘ I will be taking a respite from blogging today in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. I will actually be spending the entire day with Mike, from MovieShotsLA – one last stalking hurrah before my move to the Desert on Wednesday. I do promise to be back tomorrow, though, with a whole new…

    A Peek Inside the Pink House from “13 Going On 30”

    ‘ As I mentioned in Monday’”‘”‘s post, this past weekend, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I actually got to GO INSIDE the pink house featured at the end of fave romantic comedy 13 Going On 30.  Those of you who read my blog regularly know that I absolutely LOVE 13 Going On 30 and that Jenna’”‘”‘s pink Craftsman style home is one of…
