Romantic
fantasy with Mel
Gibson as a WW1 pilot put into deep freeze in 1939
and thawed out by young Elijah
Wood 50 years later.
The fictitious 'Alexander Field', where Mel crashes
in 1939, was constructed on an old airstrip in Moorpark,
on Route 118, northwest of LA on the road to Ventura.
The 1992 version of the tower is at
Van Nuys Airport, 6590 Hayvenhurst Avenue
between Roscoe Boulevard and Vanowen Street, Van Nuys
(also used in Casablanca
and in Laurel and Hardyís Flying
Deuces).
The 1939 diner was built on a street corner in Claremont,
north of Pomona to the east of LA, then aged, updated
and moved five miles to Northridge, northern LA, for
the 1992 scenes.
The ëWings of Freedomí airshow filmed at Los
Alamitos Army Airfield, I-405 east of Long
Beach.
The shingle cottage, built for the movie alongside an
existing lighthouse but since dismantled, was on a rocky
bluff at Point Arena,
on the California
coast about 120 miles north of San Francisco, Route
1. Point
Arena Lighthouse is open for visiting.
