Driving through Reseda, and I spotted two film locations from Paul Thomas Anderson’s “Boogie Nights.” Can you name them?
Also: Tom Petty namechecks Reseda in “Free Falling,” though I prefer this Soul Coughing reference:
The original Kryptonian crystal props from 1977’s “Superman,” on display in the Super Museum in Metropolis, Illinois
The set of John Carpenter’s “Starman,” aka the Barringer Meteor Crater in Arizona
Double feature at the Cascade Drive-in: “The Martian” & “Hotel Transylvania 2.”
Oregon’s Timberline Lodge, aka The Overlook Hotel (exteriors only), from Stanley Kubrick’s “The Shining.”
Postcard image, date unknown.
Howard Hughes’ gravesite in Houston, as private as he was.
Frank Lloyd Wight’s Marin County Civic Center (also the filming location for “Gattica”).

Topps’ 1979 trading cards for Disney’s “The Black Hole,” starring Robert Forster, Anthony Perkins & Maximilian Schell.
A flawed, beautifully-designed film with a great John Barry soundtrack. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uk5ivnULvlE
Fleer trading cards from David Lynch’s “Dune,” with Sting (& a lot of hair product) and Kyle MacLachlan.
At Dearborn, Michigan’s Ford-Wyoming Drive-In, friendliest outdoor theatre I’ve ever been to. Tonight: A double feature of “Inside Out” & “Jurassic World.”
Vintage poster display from the Orson Welles Fest in Woodstock, IL – where Welles went to school.
