Bryant-Lake Bowl from “Beautiful Girls”
‘ To appease my good friend and fellow stalker Mike, from MovieShotsLA, who has been on my case ALL WEEK about my constant Minnesota blogging, beginning tomorrow I will be returning to my old stomping grounds, so to speak, by writing about locales in the Los Angeles area. Unfortunately for Mike, though, there are still…

Casbah Cafe – The Coffee Shop from “A Lot Like Love”

Finding the Shark House!
‘ Well, it may have taken me months, but I finally found the property used as James Woods‘”‘”‘ home on the CBS legal drama .

Sara’s House from “Grandfathered”

The Never Been Kissed House
‘ Last weekend, thanks to fellow stalker Chas, I was able to stalk a location I’”‘”‘ve been on the lookout for for quite some time – Drew Barrymore‘”‘”‘s childhood home from fave romantic comedy Never Been Kissed.

Angeles Abbey Memorial Park from “Alias”
‘ Today’s locale is one of my favorite Haunted Hollywood locations ever!

Orcutt Ranch Horticultural Center & Community Garden from “La La Land”
‘ On paper, La La Land looked like my perfect movie. I love Ryan Gosling. I love Emma Stone. I love musicals. And I LOVE L.A. The film just didn’t work for me, though. I realize mine is a vastly unpopular opinion, but I found La La Land to be too long, too slow, and…
