I love houses in films. And I love Nora Ephron films because she provides us not only with cute love stories, but also with nice houses and appartments. I really love the bed Tom Hanks has got in "Sleepless", it comes very close to a bed from the Austrian eco furniture designer "Grüne Erde". My favorite Ephron movie is "You've got mail", because it's so beautiful, heartbreaking, warm, funny and you never get tired looking at it and Kathleen's appartment is so lovely, just my cup of tea! :) Greetings from Germany, LaWendula This is a very interesting blog for me.

As to why architects are often the heroes of romantic comedy films, I think it is because the profession seems to be artful and a bit glamorous (What woman doesn't want a guy who has his feminine side at the ready?)...and an architect by virtue of what we "think" they do, would be able to leave his desk and be in many locals at different times, which would allow enhancement of the story line. (Have to say 'tho that an architect friend of mine told me there are only two reasons someone becomes an architect....for the love of it....or for the money. He said you can't do both. However, the movies seem to disprove that.) I'm new to your site, but I would like to see the homes in the movie "The Holiday" with Cameron Diaz and Jude Law. You may have already featured them (there are three). If not...perhaps you could. Keep up the great work...and Thank you for the pleasure your site gives. FIRST…Love your site…just love it.

That's a great old house and was decorated so beautifully for the holidays. Do you remember? I think it was the beginning of the film. My favorite is You've Got Mail, however. It really wasn't all that long ago but doesn't it seem as though movies like this are not made anymore? Makes me sad. On another note, a friend and I were obsessed with Since You Went Away this past holiday season. What a great old film with Claudette Colbert during WWII on the homefront. And such a great house too! I did some research, and they actually built a real house and filmed inside of (not easy with those huge vintage cameras) to make it seem real. It was such a pretty house that maybe you can take a look at that one on your blog. So many houses, so little time! Thank you for your great site.
