    You have no idea how wonderful and important for those of us who love and grew up watching movies from the 80s what you do showing the places. I hope God gives me the opportunity to go to California one day. Greetings from Uruguay 🇺🇾

    It’s a 20 minute video that I know it could take you 2 to 3 weeks to complete it going from place to place filming everything in your free time. Thanks for doing so!

    How ironic that I lived a few blocks from that park and had a framed Say Anything Boombox Scene poster on my wall and I never knew that’s where it was filmed. I took my RC cars there, I jogged there…never had a clue. I’m definitely going to look at that park totally different the next time I drive by it. Great video, thank you

      True, but imagine how devastating it was for us kids in High School who lived in Seattle, when in 1989 we wasted two tanks of gas driving around town, trying to fnd the place?

    Thumbs up before the first 20 seconds of the video played!! One of my all time favorite movies from the 80s. The one liners were staples in conversations with my friends after we watched it. "You must chill!" I first saw the movie during my first deployment in the Navy. The Air Department Leading Chief Petty Officer let a bunch of us Airmen Recruits into the Air Department Office to watch it on the TV there. I don't remember why, but it was very unusual for something like that to happen. Over the years I had this movie on VHS, DVD, BluRay and iTunes. Thanks for the tour!! So ICONIC!!!

    Dude, I lived just a little South of Lankershim/Magnolia in the North Hollywood Arts District area for 11 years. The 7-11 store and park where Lloyd holds up the boombox is maybe a 10 minute walk from where my place was. I jogged that trail that loops around that park 3 times a week for years and would then grab a gatorade across the street at that 7-11. This is blowing my mind right now! How did I not know? Great video Kurt!

    It's crazy. Didn't actually see this movie until about 5yrs ago. And this was my generation born in 1969. The scene with the boombox turned me on to the song by Peter Gabriel and it's one of my favorite songs of all time.

    One of the cutest things I find about the Cusacks is that they are in a LOT of movies together. I think the ones where she is more featured there is less of John, but Joan always seems to be in the ones where he is more featured.

    Love you channel, kind of off topic question but. My Bodyguard starring Matt Dillon, Adam Baldwin. The movie such a big part of my childhood and in the beginning when the music is playing and Clifford is riding his bike. It brings me to tears because of the look of the city. The nostalgia of the clothes, bike, cars. Would love to see you do this one day. I binge watch you over and over again. You have nailed some of my favorite movies of all time. You are an artist in your craft and you match things up like no other. I usually go to Shawn Clark for my horror but your my Classic movie guy. Thank you my friend. Keep up the good work 👍🏻

    Fantastic video! My girlfriend and I were extras on several of the locations including Diane‘s graduation, and the house in Altadena. This was around March of ‘88. At the party scene on the front lawn when they’re collecting keys, my girlfriend and I are the couple making out as the two young graduates are fighting. It was a fun shoot, and Cameron Crowe couldn’t have been nicer to all of us.

      Hey Tony, I also was in the Graduation Scene and the party Scene. I was the kid in the pink shirt when Loyd and Diane walked into the party. I think I remember you two. It was such a fun movie to work in! Thanks so much Kurt for putting this video together. Total Flash Back! I had a scene talking with Diane at the party that didn't make the final cut. I would love to see it if you have the deleted scenes or know where to see them. Thanks.

    Not sure if Bob’s Java Jive still has bands but they definitely used to. My old band toured up to the Pacific Northwest and we played Bob’s Java Jive about 15 years ago or so. It was a pretty kooky and cool little spot. I don’t know if they actually sold coffee, I think it was just a bar/venue at the time.

    I just thought about something. If you think about it, the pen was also like a character in this movie in the way it got passed from the father to the daughter (to hand to Lloyd), and then it goes from Diane to Lloyd, then from Lloyd BACK to the father from the hands of the daughter. Perfectly carried thru the movie. I think it's actually kinda cool if that was the director's intent - I'm curious to know.

    Music is great as always. I know the videos used to give a credit to an artist name, but is it really you that makes the music, Kurt? Would be good to know. The music in this video has a very wistful, melancholy, bittersweet quality that is especially appropriate for videos documenting the lost world of the 1980s.
