Kim’s New House from “L!fe Happens”
‘ Once I had tracked down the main house used in L!fe Happens (you can read that post here), as well as Auntie Em’s Kitchen, which also appeared in the flick (you can read that post here), I became more than a little obsessed with finding the cottage that Kim (Krysten Ritter) rented towards the…

Taking a Break . . .
‘ Unfortunately, I have no blog to publish today. 🙁 I had to rush my dad to the emergency room bright and early yesterday morning and wound up spending the entire day and most of the night with him in the hospital. Which normally wouldn’t have precluded me from writing a post, but for some…

The “Mr. Deeds” House
‘ One location that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, has being dying to stalk for ages now is Winona Ryder‘”‘”‘s red-doored childhood home from the 2002 Adam Sandler comedy Mr. Deeds.

Jerry’s Condo from “Jerry Maguire”
‘ Location hunts can take some strange, circuitous paths.

Halloween at Dick Van Dyke’s House
‘ While doing research on the Strode House from Halloween a couple of weeks back, I came across a blog post about the extravagant yard haunt that actor Dick Van Dyke hosts every Halloween at his home in Malibu. And while you wouldn’t think it would be possible, being that I have lived in Southern…

The “Easy A” House
‘ The Easy A location that I was most excited about stalking while in the Ojai area almost two years ago was, not surprisingly, the charming clapboard residence where Olive Penderghast (Emma Stone) lived with her unique family (notice they are all named after a food of some sort) – dad Dill (Stanley Tucci), mom…

Our Wedding Photographer – Rob Greer
‘ Deciding the order in which to publish the various blog posts that I am planning to write about the different movie/filming location elements of my wedding has proved to be a bit of a challenge for me. Today’s entry was originally going to be about our invitations, but then I realized that I can’t…

Tavern on the Green from “Ghostbusters”
‘ I adhere to a “more is more” philosophy. There’s nothing wrong with a little extra! So I, of course, was a huge fan of the landmark Central Park restaurant Tavern on the Green during the time that it was run by the LeRoy family. Though many referred to the place as tacky, garish and…
