  • California Market Center from “Cruel Intentions”

    California Market Center from “Cruel Intentions”

    ‘ For such a quintessentially “New York” movie, quite a lot of Cruel Intentions was shot in L.A., which I’m only just now discovering.  A few of the more prominent West Coast locales include the modern pad where Blaine Tuttle (Joshua Jackson) lived (it’s actually the Benton House in Brentwood), the Rosemont Estate’s ornate indoor…

  • Top of the Tower

    Top of the Tower

    ‘ While there are several restaurants in New York that I LOVE, there is one in particular that stands out far above the rest. That restaurant is named the Top of the Tower and it is located on the 26th floor of the Beekman Tower Hotel. Although the Top of the Tower has been one…

  • Marie McDonald’s Former House

    Marie McDonald’s Former House

    ‘ There are strange Hollywood crimes and then there are strange Hollywood crimes.  Today’s locale fits into the latter category.  Last week, my friend Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog, emailed me to let me know about a mystifying case concerning an actress that was detailed in a recent issue of Entertainment Weekly…

  • The “Spanglish” House

    The “Spanglish” House

    ‘ The Michael J. Fox Theatre in Burnaby, British Columbia, which I blogged about yesterday, was actually the very last Vancouver locale that I had logged away in my location library and, while I have a slew of Seattle area spots that I have yet to write about, I thought that for today I’d mix…

  • Holly’s Nashua House from “The Office”

    Holly’s Nashua House from “The Office”

    ‘ Another location from The Office that I stalked recently was the supposed Nashua, New Hampshire-area house that Holly Flax moved into in the Season 5 episode titled “Employee Transfer”.  I found this location, yet again, thanks to fellow stalker Owen who went on a mission a while back to try to track down as…

  • Rod Tidwell’s House from “Jerry Maguire”

    Rod Tidwell’s House from “Jerry Maguire”

    ‘ People often ask me about my most-wanted unfound locations.  Currently, the one that tops my list is the mansion where this Beverly Hills, 90210 publicity photo was taken.  But for several years, the locale that held that spot was the Mediterranean-style residence where Rod Tidwell (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and his wife, Marcee (Regina King),…

  • The Night Before the Night Before Party

    The Night Before the Night Before Party

    ‘ Last night I dragged my boyfriend to the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel to do a little stalking of the “Night Before the Night Before Party” that was being held at Wolfgang Puck’”‘”‘s restaurant Cut located inside the hotel. I must say that aside from seeing Jeffrey Katzenberg (who is teeny tiny!!), the night was…

  • Mike’s House from “Say Anything . . . “

    Mike’s House from “Say Anything . . . “

    ‘ As I mentioned in last Thursday’s post about North Hollywood Park – aka the location of the iconic Boombox scene from Say Anything . . .  – Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I recently went on a mission to track down some missing locales from the classic 1989 flick.  And I am very happy to…

  • A Visit with My Grandma

    A Visit with My Grandma

    ‘ My grandma is currently in town for a visit, so I will probably not be able to post a new column until later in the week as I will be spending time with her.  I hope all of my fellow stalkers have a great few days! ‘

  • The Bar from Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” Video

    The Bar from Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” Video

    ‘ UPDATE: While I originally thought that the video’”‘”‘s pool hall scenes were also shot at this location, that is not the case.  The pool segments were actually shot at the Brunswick Billiard Academy, which was formerly located in the basement of the San Fernando Building at 400 South Main Street in downtown Los Angeles. …
