  • Halloween 2017

    Halloween 2017

    ‘ I’ve made no secret of my love for Big Little Lies over the past couple of months (you can read my many posts on its filming locations here, here, here, and here), so it should come as no surprise that the HBO miniseries figured into my and the Grim Cheaper’s 2017 Halloween costumes.  Interestingly…

  • Farralone – Frank Sinatra’s Former House

    Farralone – Frank Sinatra’s Former House

    ‘ While doing research on the Chaplin Court apartment complex, which I blogged about last Thursday, I came across some information about an oft-filmed-at Chatsworth-area estate formerly owned by Old Blue Eyes himself, Frank Sinatra, that, for some inexplicable reason, I had somehow not previously known about.  The mansion, which in most circles is known…

  • Bleeker’s House from “Juno”

    Bleeker’s House from “Juno”

    ‘ Another Vancouver location that fellow stalker Owen managed to track down was the supposed Minnesota-area house belonging to dorky high school track-star Paulie Bleeker (aka Michael Cera) in the 2007 breakout dramedy Juno.  And even though I was not a big fan of the flick – it was funny and all, but not especially…

  • The HMS Bounty Bar and Restaurant from “Mad Men”

    The HMS Bounty Bar and Restaurant from “Mad Men”

    ‘ Another stalking stop on the Grim Cheaper’s Valentine’s Day scavenger hunt around Los Angeles that we embarked upon this past February was the historic Koreatown eatery known as the HMS Bounty Bar and Restaurant.  And while I had known about the watering hole’s vast history and longtime celebrity clientele before we dined there, up…

  • Nakatomi Plaza from “Die Hard”

    Nakatomi Plaza from “Die Hard”

    ‘ Because we are currently knee deep in the middle of the Christmas Season – which just so happens to be my favorite season 🙂 –  I decided to focus my next few blog posts on locations featured in holiday movies.   And what better way to start off those Christmas posts than to blog about…

  • Moving Day!

    Moving Day!

    ‘ My parents officially moved to Palm Springs today, marking the first time in over a decade that we will not be living in the same zip code.  Watching their U-Haul drive off was one of the saddest moments I’ve experienced as of late, so I was not in a really good place to write…

  • 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),…

  • Happy Valentine’s Day/Lincoln’s Birthday!

    Happy Valentine’s Day/Lincoln’s Birthday!

    ‘ I will be taking today off for Lincoln’s birthday, but I would like to wish all of my fellow stalkers a very happy Valentine’s Day/Lincoln’s birthday/three-day weekend.  I will be back tomorrow with a whole new post, so until that time . . . Happy Stalking! ‘

  • The Oldest Restaurant in Hollywood!

    The Oldest Restaurant in Hollywood!

    ‘ Two weeks ago, while my mom and I were out stalking in Hollywood, we hit up Musso and Frank’”‘”‘s Grill, which has the distinction of being the oldest running restaurant in Hollywood. Opened in 1919, not only is Musso and Frank’”‘”‘s a top notch celeb hangout, but the restaurant has been featured in countless…

  • The License to Drive School

    The License to Drive School

    ‘ This weekend, thanks to Mike over at MovieShotsLA, I got to stalk the high school used in fave 80s movie License to Drive. When I found out that Mike had found this filming location long ago, I completely freaked out and of course immediately dragged my boyfriend, and my good friend Nat who was…
