    The Skyline Residence – Jacob’s House from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    ‘ Back in August, I received an email from a fellow stalker named Brandon who wanted to let me know that he had tracked down the ultra-modern abode where Jacob Palmer (aka Ryan Gosling) lived in Crazy, Stupid, Love.  At the time I had yet to see the movie, but added the address to my…

    Monrovia High School from “A Cinderella Story”

    ‘ My taste in movies is about as mature and refined as my palate, which favors chicken strips and ranch dressing above all else.  Case in point – I am obsessed with the 2004 tween romance A Cinderella Story.  Chad Michael Murray?  Hilary Duff on roller skates?  A high school love story?  A pink ‘50s…

    The Pasadena Main Branch of Bank of the West from “Falcon Crest”

    ‘ For years now, I have been trying to track down the bank where Terry Dolittle (Whoopi Goldberg) worked in the 1986 comedy Jumpin’ Jack Flash.  It is one of those locations that always sits fixed at the back of my mind, images of it constantly floating around in my head.  So when I came…

    Kurt Cobain’s Former House

    ‘ While visiting the Pacific Northwest this past May, my good friend and fellow stalker Kerry took me to stalk a location that, at first, I actually wasn’t all that interested in seeing – the Seattle-area home where Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain passed away on April 5, 1994.  I’d never really been into Kurt Cobain…

    ‘ Got a challenge from Debbie a few weeks back to find the house used in the 1992 movie Beethoven and its many subsequent sequels.  Debbie had just read my post on the Camden house from the television series 7th Heaven  and was struck by how similar it looked to the home used in the…
