Can You Guess Which Movie This House Starred In?

by hookedonhouses on October 21, 2008

This Craftsman-style home starred in a movie that came out last year. Can you guess which one?

Here are your 3 clues:

  1. The movie was a remake of a classic film from the 1950s with Grace Kelly.
  2. The star of this film was in a serious car accident and charged with DUI earlier this year.
  3. The mom in the movie became famous for her role in the movie “The Matrix.”

Take your best guess in the comments. Come back tomorrow for the answer and I’ll give you the tour!

I have no idea, but I love the house and can’t wait to see the rest of the pictures!

7 Astrid October 21, 2008 at 8:41 am

I have no idea but I really love that house! Are you going to show more photos of that house???

Distubia.

9 splumier October 21, 2008 at 8:58 am

Sorry should have said Disturbia.

I am quite the old movie fan and always get to help with that at trivia nights. I’m still trying to figure out the GK film of the 50′s, though. If I do, I’ll be back.

11 Liz October 21, 2008 at 9:34 am

That Rear Window remake that made me mad. :)

12 Holly October 21, 2008 at 9:39 am

I’m clueless, but based on a little internet research (cheating), I think Emily has it right.

13 Amy October 21, 2008 at 9:48 am

I was thinking something with Shia Lebouf in it so I’ll go with Disturbia too. I love that house.

14 reagan October 21, 2008 at 9:49 am

I wasn’t sure, but since Shia Lebouf was charged with a DUI, I thought it might be Disturbia? I haven’t seen the movie…but I want to. I don’t know anything else about it.

I have no clue, but I love it :)

“Disturbia” is to “Rear Window” what “Guess Who” is to “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner”. (Okay maybe not that much of an abomination.) And I could never reconcile the interiors to the exteriors during the movie.

The star was arrested for suspicion of DUI, but the DA had insufficient evidence to bring charges.

Silly Trivia:

The actor that played Julie, was a regular in the TV show “Matrix”. “Matrix” on TV had nothing to do with humans being Duracells.

17 maya October 21, 2008 at 10:06 am

i haven’t seen very many movies since V was born (3 years ago today!), so i’m hopelessly out of date.

but it looks like you’ve got your answer. :)

18 Aubrey October 21, 2008 at 10:38 am

My first guess was “Dan in Real Life” but then your hints proved me totally wrong.

19 Krista October 21, 2008 at 11:14 am

I agree with everyone that it’s from “Disturbia,” but I thought that came out in 2007. Oh well, I don’t pay that much attention to movies anyway.

20 Emily October 21, 2008 at 12:01 pm

That was the only reason I wasn’t positive about Disturbia, b/c it’s a 2007 movie.

21 hookedonhouses October 21, 2008 at 12:22 pm

Krista and Emily, sorry about that. You’re right, it came out in 2007. Oops! It didn’t seem like that long ago to me. I corrected the post.

Billy, great trivia! I should have you write the clues for these guessing games for me.

Astrid–yes! The house is on the market, so I was able to get the interior photos and I’m showing them tomorrow. So y’all come back now, y’hear? -Julia :-)

22 Emily October 21, 2008 at 1:08 pm

we forgive you just this once, julia. don’t let it happen again ;)

can’t wait to see the inside tomorrow!

23 Rachel October 21, 2008 at 1:29 pm

I’m going to say Distubia. I think I recognize the front porch.

24 Natalie at FLHomeBlog October 21, 2008 at 2:33 pm

Cool! Looking forward to tomorrow! :)

(Pssst…I’ve added the give-away info to the post now.)

25 Carly October 21, 2008 at 2:39 pm

I would have had no idea without the help of google! DISTURBIA

26 Annabelle October 21, 2008 at 3:24 pm

It’s Disturbia. I love that house. And Rear Window is one of my all time favorite movies.
Annabelle :)

27 Tracy October 21, 2008 at 3:32 pm

Disturbia! GREAT movie and so glad we’ll get to see more of this fantastic house.

28 southernfriedgirl October 21, 2008 at 3:36 pm

29 Jen R Sanctuary Arts October 21, 2008 at 3:39 pm

I was going to guess old school….but I don’t think that’s correct…

30 Christine October 21, 2008 at 3:45 pm

My guess would be Disturbia can’t wait to see more pictures!

31 Jaye October 21, 2008 at 4:44 pm

Disturbia! Thank goodness for google. Please show us the inside too!

32 Ms.Tee October 21, 2008 at 6:03 pm

Gosh – I have no idea on this one.

33 Robyn October 21, 2008 at 7:31 pm

If everyone else is guessing Disturbia then I am going to have to also. I can’t wait to see the inside. ~ Robyn

34 Suzann October 21, 2008 at 8:14 pm

From what I can tell…this is the house featured in Disturbia which is the remake of Rear Window.

35 sandra/tx October 21, 2008 at 9:56 pm

I didn’t see Disturbia, but I’m intrigued…

36 Bella Casa October 23, 2008 at 7:55 am

I never get to the movies…but it reminds me of the Walton’s house, lol…I absolutely LOVE this house though, can I have it? ;)

37 Darla - Sassy Homemaker October 23, 2008 at 5:32 pm
