Carlotta’s House from “Hail, Caesar!”

Cameron Frye’s House
‘ Last Wednesday morning I almost fell out of my chair as I opened up my email account and saw an AOL news headline screaming out at me “Ferris Bueller’”‘”‘s Day Off House For Sale!” At first, I thought the article was talking about the Long Beach area home that stood in for Ferris’”‘”‘ in the film.
