  • The “Date Night” House

    The “Date Night” House

    ‘ Last night, the Grim Cheaper and I sat down to watch the movie Date Night which FINALLY came out on DVD this week.  We somehow missed seeing the flick in theatres when it first came out in April and I have been not-so-patiently waiting for it to be released on DVD ever since.  Especially…

  • Oliver’s House from “A Lot Like Love”

    Oliver’s House from “A Lot Like Love”

    ‘ A Lot Like Love is a movie I can’t not watch.  Even though I’ve seen it at least a dozen times and own the DVD, if I happen to catch it on TV, need to scan through it for a post, or it pops up in my Netflix recommendations, I’m pretty much viewing it…

  • The “Encino Man” House

    The “Encino Man” House

    ‘ Lately, I have been on a retro-movie watching kick.  I think it has something to do with ”The ‘80s” issue of Los Angeles magazine that hit newsstands this past July.  Reading through it got me in the mood to revisit decades past.  So I was thrilled when my buddy Mike, from MovieShotsLA, took me…

  • The Never Been Kissed House

    The Never Been Kissed House

    ‘ Last weekend, thanks to fellow stalker Chas, I was able to stalk a location I’”‘”‘ve been on the lookout for for quite some time – Drew Barrymore‘”‘”‘s childhood home from fave romantic comedy Never Been Kissed.   Chas is quite the master stalker, so last week I enlisted his help in finding this location and, lo and…

    "I Don’t Need the BMW Anymore, I Already Have A Mercedes!"

    ‘ This past weekend while out stalking Les Anderson’”‘”‘s house from my fave 80s movie License to Drive , I randomly found the house of his girlfriend Mercedes from the movie. This was another location that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I were obsessed with finding. We had been doing some cyber-stalking of Mercedes’”‘”‘ house for…

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

    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 Hartunian House from “Alpha Dog”

    The Hartunian House from “Alpha Dog”

    ‘ Another Palm-Springs-area locale that fellow stalker/location scout Scott Trimble, of the STS Locations website, helped me to find recently was the residence where Frankie Ballenbacher’s (aka Justin Timberlake’s) good friend/”Witness #11”, Susan Hartunian (aka Dominique Swain), lived with her utterly clueless and apathetic mother, Tiffany Hartunian (aka ER’s Alex Kingston), in the 2006 movie…

  • George Valentin’s Duplex from “The Artist”

    George Valentin’s Duplex from “The Artist”

    ‘ As I mentioned way back in early 2010 in my post about Julia Child’s childhood home, one of the best parts about being in the Screen Actors Guild is the fact that all Guild members are sent several “For Your Consideration” DVDs just prior to the SAG Awards each year.  One of the DVDs…

  • The “Grumpy Old Men” Houses

    The “Grumpy Old Men” Houses

    ‘ A few locations that my family and I stalked this past week while spending time in the North Star State were the homes which appeared in the 1993 comedy Grumpy Old Men.  I found these locations thanks to fellow stalker Lavonna, who, a few weeks before my trip out to the Midwest, gifted me…
