    The Wormwood Home from “Matilda”

    ‘ Every time I open up Instagram lately I’m inundated with videos of the so-called “Matilda Challenge.”  For those whose feeds haven’t been flooded by the clips, in the challenge fans of the 1996 film re-create this scene in which Matilda Wormwood (Mara Wilson) perfects her magic powers.  Though I’ve never seen the movie (or…

    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.  Mike had asked for my help in tracking down this location a couple of months ago, but, for some reason, even our two heads working together couldn’”‘”‘t seem to find…

    Kirsten Dunst’s Bring It On House

    ‘ Well, as Vanessa Williams once sang, I definitely “saved the best for last” regarding my Bring It On posts this week.  As you might have already guessed, the BIO filming location I was most excited about stalking was, of course, the ultra-cool, modern-style abode belonging to Kirsten Dunst’s character, Torrance Shipman, in the movie.  Fellow…

    Trish’s House from “The 40-Year-Old Virgin”

    ‘ Two weeks ago, on the recommendation of fellow stalker Owen, the Grim Cheaper and I finally sat down to watch the 2005 comedy The 40-Year-Old Virgin.  I have no idea why we avoided seeing the flick for as long as we did, but I have to say that we both ended up absolutely loving…

    The Robinson House from “The Graduate”

    ‘ A few weeks back fellow stalker Scott, from the Film in America website, asked me if I knew the location of the Robinson house and the Braddock house from the 1967 movie The Graduate.   He told me that he feared the locations of those homes were lost to history being that the movie was filmed over forty years ago…

  • The Cellular House

    The Cellular House

    ‘ Back in September of last year, while stalking the house from fave 80s movie License to Drive, I just happened to stumble upon another famous movie home – Kim Basinger’”‘”‘s residence from the 2004 flick Cellular.  Well, truth be told, “stumble upon” isn’”‘”‘t exactly the terminology I should be using here. 🙂  The real story is that while taking…

    Jules’ House from “The Intern”

    ‘ For our recent Big Apple vacation, the Grim Cheaper and I took a red eye into New York, leaving Palm Springs at 11 p.m. and landing in NYC at 6:30 a.m.  Working off zero sleep, we were obviously exhausted upon arrival (me especially considering the copious amounts of calming drugs I ingested to curtail…
