Attempt at an instant pop cult, from the director of
Absolute Beginners.
Goldblum,
Wayans and
Carrey are
three furry aliens who plop into Valley Girl Geena
Davisí swimming pool.
ëOur Lady of the Valleyí hospital, where Davisí
two-timing husband intends to dissect the aliens is
the Olive View Medical Center,
1444 South Olive View Drive at Eucalyptus
Avenue in Sylmar, just north of the Foothill Freeway,
I-210. No longer in use as a medical centre, the facility
lives on as a movie location for movies such as Beverly
Hills Cop II and the Sylvester
Stallone arm-wrestling clunker Over
The Top.
The ëBlondesí number beach, with its ëNo Brunettesí
sign, is Zuma Beach
on Route 1, six miles north of Malibu. The freeway chase
following the unintentional gas station ëhold-upí filmed
in San Dimas Valley home of Bill And Ted ‚ east of LA
along Foothill Freeway.
There's an appearance from that great icon of LA
culture, Randy's
Donuts, 805 West Manchester Avenue (tel: 310.645.4707),
down in Inglewood.
It's the donut store shaped like – what else? –
a giant donut.
A neat bit of location work is the ëDeca danceí disco,
where Jeff Goldblum
plays piano on a terrace overlooking a twinkling nightscape
of LA.
Beneath all the neon dressing, the art-deco exterior
of the LA nightclub is the stair, the terrace and the
eastern dome of the Griffith
Observatory 2800 East Observatory Road in Griffith
Park. The observatory is, of course, a major location
for Rebel Without
A Cause, which is showing on Geena
Davisí TV in the movie.
