    Farnsworth Park

    ‘ My favorite movie of all time has got to be Dirty Dancing. I’”‘”‘ve loved the coming-of-age film ever since I was about 13 years old.  Oh, how I wanted to be Baby!  🙂  Growing up, I made my best guy friend practice doing “the lift” with me everytime we were in a swimming pool.  LOL   And, like…

    Happy Memorial Day!

    ‘ I would like to wish all of my fellow stalkers a very happy Memorial Day.  I hope everyone takes a moment today to remember what the holiday is truly about – not three-day weekends or BBQs, but honoring those who passed away while fighting for our country’s freedom. ‘

  • Westfield Culver City from “Girls Just Want to Have Fun”

    Westfield Culver City from “Girls Just Want to Have Fun”

    ‘ Some filming locations are maddeningly elusive.  One that remained a thorn in my side for ages was the mall where Janey Glenn (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Lynne Stone (Helen Hunt) shopped in Girls Just Want to Have Fun, which, for those who haven’t been paying attention over the years, is one of my all-time…

  • Paul Rudd’s House From “I Love You, Man”

    Paul Rudd’s House From “I Love You, Man”

    ‘ One location I have been trying to find for quite some time now is the Mid-Century Modern style abode where Paul Rudd and Rashida Jones lived in fave romantic comedy I Love You, Man.   I was dying to stalk the house not only because of its incredibly unique architecture, but also because I was such a big fan of the movie. …

    Lacy Park from “Say Anything . . . “

    ‘ Despite having lived in the San Gabriel Valley for 15 years, I somehow never visited Lacy Park in San Marino.  I had heard of it, sure (the kids I used to babysit would watch fireworks there every Fourth of July), and knew it was a popular recreation spot, but was never exactly certain of…

  • Kansas City Barbeque – Back and Better Than Ever!

    Kansas City Barbeque – Back and Better Than Ever!

    ‘ I thought I’”‘”‘d take a little break today from my NYC blogging – and yes, I do have many more Manhattan filming locations to write about 🙂 – to do a little post about an old favorite of mine – Kansas City Barbeque in San Diego, or as it is more commonly known, the…

    Palm Springing It, Again!

    ‘ I’m sorry to do this yet again, but I am taking another day off as I spent this entire past weekend in Palm Springs with my parents and unfortunately had no time for blogging.  I will be back tomorrow, though, with a whole new post. Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • The “TimesTalks” Interview with George Clooney & Alexander Payne

    The “TimesTalks” Interview with George Clooney & Alexander Payne

    ‘ This past Wednesday afternoon, the fabulous Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, informed me that she had just scored two tickets to The New York Times “TimesTalks in L.A.” interview with actor George Clooney and his The Descendants director Alexander Payne.  Pinky wanted me to be her plus-one for the event, which…

  • Westside Pavilion from “Christmas with the Kranks”

    Westside Pavilion from “Christmas with the Kranks”

    ‘ Some cities know how to do Christmas right.  Sadly, Palm Springs is not one of them.  As I mentioned last year, the desert just seems to be lacking when it comes to Christmas décor.  Yes, there are lights and garland strung in certain sections of our local mall and colorful wreaths hung from a…

  • Taking Another Two Days Off

    ‘ My dad had surgery yesterday to implant a permanent morphine pump in his body which will hopefully stop his chronic pain and because I was out in the desert with him, I did not have time to write a new post.  So I will be taking today, as well as tomorrow, off.  But I…
