    Great job on the video! St. Elmo was a coming of age movie in the 1980s that to this day, l can transport myself to that time and l become a college student again. Thanks for hunting down the homes and buildings. Happy Holidays!

    I have just realized now that I lived in Wash DC and studied at GWU back in early90’s without knowing this movie was filmed this area. I did watch the movie before moving there but never noticed it was this place of the US I was going to move to from Japan. Thank you for the video. So many places reminds me of the memories of those days😊

    Great video. One of my fav movies from the 80s. I truly enjoyed your tour of the movie locations. Interesting about Len Bias…his mother visited my high school after his passing when I was a senior. Hadn’t heard his name in decades.

      Oh wow, I literally had just found that out before recording this segment. I wasn’t sure whether or not to include since it was so off subject.

      I guess technically it was a hit but was definitely not on par with other like comedies of its time period. Parr...no pun intended!

    Awesome work sir. This film has a very nostalgic place with me too. Side note, the canal is expected to be drained into 2025 due to restorations.

      Oh, cool, thanks for the canal update! I take it a lot of folks have found this video because of the new Andrew McCarthy documentary.

      That was filmed in Tahoe. I think I give the address in the video but it's down a private drive and is not accessible on Google Street View. My best guess is it was loaned out by a studio executive (or was owned by someone on the production team).
