Green With Excitement Over the New Issue

1. This is from Tom Danehy’s column this week:

   “I need some help with Tucson-based films. I know most of them. Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion is based in Tucson, even though it was filmed in Phoenix.”

   Here is the list of locations from the IMDB database:

   http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120032/locations

   — Ambassador Hotel – 3400 Wilshire Boulevard, Los Angeles, California, USA
   — Beverly Hills, California, USA
   — Corona Del Mar, Newport Beach, California, USA
   — Los Angeles, California, USA
   — Newport Beach, California, USA
   — Pasadena, California, USA (Mercedes dealership scenes)
   — Valencia High School – 27801 Dickason Drive, Valencia, California, USA

   No wonder Danehy writes that he needs help with his research…

2. What no “Revenge of the Nerds?”

3. Here’s a list of movies filmed here per IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/keyword/tucson-arizona/
   More locations and specifics at Vanishing Tucson (search Yahoo Groups for it)

4. Weirdly, IPH’s link includes Romi and Michelle as a Tucson film, even though another IMDB page says it wasn’t filmed here. Such a mystery! If only I cared enough about that bit of trivia to look into it.

5. Romy and Michele is SET in Tucson. It was filmed in California.
