  • Copley’s on Palm Canyon – Cary Grant’s Former Guesthouse

    Copley’s on Palm Canyon – Cary Grant’s Former Guesthouse

    ‘ One location that I had been chomping at the bit to stalk for what seemed like ages was Copley’s on Palm Canyon – a restaurant created out of what is said to be Cary Grant’s former Palm Springs guest house.  Because the eatery does not open until 6 p.m. each night, though (I am…

  • Charlie’s Apartment Building from “Monster-in-Law”

    Charlie’s Apartment Building from “Monster-in-Law”

    ‘ The third and final Monster-in-Law locale that I set out to find this past weekend was the supposed Venice Beach area apartment building where Charlie Cantilini (aka Jennifer Lopez) lived in the flick.  Fellow stalker Nick had already determined that the Spanish-style building was located somewhere in Hollywood, so from there I set out…

  • The Cat & Fiddle

    The Cat & Fiddle

    ‘ We’ll always have the Cat & Fiddle.  Or so Angelinos thought.  Sadly, the historic restaurant closed its doors this past December.  When news of the impending shuttering hit the blogosphere in late October, I became desperate to stalk the eatery – especially once I read via several online news outlets that it had appeared…

  • Frankie’s House from “People Like Us”

    Frankie’s House from “People Like Us”

    ‘ As I mentioned in early November in my post about Henry’s Tacos, I did not especially love the 2012 movie People Like Us as I found it to be a bit too depressing.  What I did love, though, was the fact that the flick was filmed in its entirety in L.A.  So after watching,…

    Skylight Books from “Veep”

    ‘ While we are on the subject of historic book shops featured in Washington, D.C.-based productions (you can read my post on Idle Time Books from A Few Good Men here), I would be remiss if I did not mention a bookseller that popped up on my new favorite show, Veep.  The Grim Cheaper and…

  • The Site of the “A Few Good Men” Crab Restaurant

    The Site of the “A Few Good Men” Crab Restaurant

    ‘ To paraphrase Dorothy (Judy Garland) in The Wizard of Oz, our heart’s desires can often be found right in our own backyard.  Even though I’ve seen the 1939 film about a gazillion times, I failed to heed Dorothy’s advice while searching for the crab restaurant Lt. Cdr. JoAnne Galloway (Demi Moore) took Lt. Daniel…

  • My So-Called Weekend

    My So-Called Weekend

    ‘ I know My So-Called Life has been off the air for over 8 years now, but I am still slightly obsessed with it.  When one of my co-workers told me that MSCL was filmed at his high school, University High School in West LA, I set out to have a My So-Called Weekend! University High…

    The Witch’s House from “Clueless”

    ‘ One of my favorite sites to stalk in all of Beverly Hills is known simply as “The Witch’”‘”‘s House” and it just so happens to fit in perfectly with this month’”‘”‘s Halloween theme. Although not really a filming location, the house is a Beverly Hills landmark of sorts. Known formally as “The Spadena House”,…

  • Figaro Bistrot from “Made of Honor”

    Figaro Bistrot from “Made of Honor”

    ‘ As I mentioned in my post about Le Petit Bistro back in early August, one location that I have been longing to stalk for quite some time now is Figaro Bistrot, an adorable little French cafe that has appeared in numerous productions over the years, most notably the Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2009 advertising campaign…
