The Locations Revealed! 1,500+ Movie Location, TV Location and Music Video Filming Location Photos

In this classic comedy movie short, the Stooges are (somehow) veterinarians running their own pet hospital. A rich lady brings in her dog - Garcon - for a surgery. The surgery is a success (!) but while the dog is recuperating, two dognappers steal Garcon and hold him for ransom.

Most of this film was made at Columbia Pictures in the studio, but there is a scene where the Stooges go out looking for Garcon. This movie location is shown in this video and miraculously dodged demolition when the 101 Freeway was built right in back of the filming site. The building seen in the film is still with us, unchanged over all the decades.

An early "talkie" from Laurel and Hardy, this film has the boys as sailors on shore leave spending a day in the park. They encounter two lovely young ladies and attempt to treat them to a fun afternoon in the park, with a predictably disastrous outcome! 

Like The Three Stooges movie CALLING ALL CURS, the location used in this movie was almost lost when the city was planning the route of the I-5 Freeway. As things turned out, the freeway just slices through a tiny corner of the park used as the filming location and the configuration of the park today very closely matches what Laurel and Hardy captured on film in 1929.

One of the last silent The Little Rascals (Our Gang) movies has the Gang racing their pet-powered dragsters down the neighborhood streets. A lady (Hedda Hopper!) from the local "Be Kind To Animals Society" spots the Gang and convinces them that they shouldn't be using their pets to power their racing vehicles and to spread the word that all animals need to be treated kindly.  

Once again for a Little Rascals movie, the locations used for filming are in the same few blocks of the Palms neighborhood of Los Angeles. If you've been watching The Little Rascals films featured on this site, you'll immediately recognize the filming locations.

Charley Chase is on his way to the train station when he comes upon a fellow motorist stuck in the mud. Charley graciously helps tow him out but then CHARLEY ends up stuck in the mud.

This movie produced by the Hal Roach Studios was filmed in the neighborhood just south of the studio. Like The Little Rascals (Our Gang) movie DOGS OF WAR (also covered on this site and filmed on the same street), we get a great view of a Culver City neighborhood in its earliest days, with houses under construction and no trees lining the street. 

This video gives a great contrast between the earliest days of the neighborhood and how it has evolved 100 years later.

 The Three Stooges usually filmed their comedy short movies within the confines of the Columbia Pictures Studios lot located on the corner of Sunset and Gower in Hollywood. When an outdoor location was called for, most times they would head over to the Columbia Pictures "ranch" in the San Fernando Valley. 

But sometimes, they would actually go out on the streets of Los Angeles and film scenes on location. This film - CALLING ALL CURS - includes a scene that was filmed about a half mile from the studio, just east of today's 101 freeway.

The building seen in the movie is still there, the sidewalk may very well be the same and the trees captured on film in 1939 are most definitely the same as you can see in the movie location then and now photo comparison above.

 In 1929 at the dawn of the "talking pictures" era, most films were being made indoors on sound stages. The staff at the Hal Roach Studios though bucked the practice and bravely ventured out on location with their newfangled sound recording equipment and made quite a few films in 1929 on location. The Little Rascals movie RAILROADIN' is an excellent example.

This 1929 Laurel and Hardy movie, MEN O' WAR, is another great example - filmed almost entirely outdoors and on location at a (then) very beautiful park in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles.

The Little Rascals (Our Gang) movies were frequently shot outdoors on location, and frequently used the SAME movie locations. The Palms neighborhood of Los Angeles was an often used film location for The Little Rascals series starting with the very first film (OUR GANG in 1922).

By using the same filming locations through the years 1922 - 1932, the film makers have left us with an amazing time capsule to explore this neighborhood when it had a very "small town" look and feel.

Today, while the streets and alleys are all in the same places - and even a few trees that were captured on film 90+ years ago are still standing - only a few of the buildings seen in the films are still around.

To see all of these changes and learn the exact locations of each of the movie locations used in this film, go to Page 4 in The Little Rascals Filming Locations Photo Gallery section of the site.  If you have made a small donation to the site and are currently a member, just click here and scroll down the page a bit to view these fascinating then and now photos.

 The bulk of this Charley Chase comedy short was filmed in one of the oldest residential neighborhoods in Culver City, California. At the time (1924), the streets had been recently paved and the water, sewer and electric utilities were in place waiting for the lots to be sold and the homes to be built.

During the filming, a few homes had already been built and we can see several others under construction. Many of these homes still stand today.

The movie location then and now photo comparison above dramatically illustrates how the neighborhood has evolved over the last 100 years.
