I just finished watching the film and it is my number one on my list of FILMS TO ACQUIRE IMMEDIATELY. I absolutely loved it in case you all couldn't tell. One of the reasons that I really just adored it is because I went to college around the San Pedro/Rancho Palos Verdes area and seeing the image of that bridge through Zach's eyes brings a completely different perspective to my college experience. I only wish the people were that cool around there.

Anyway, so thinking about San Pedro got me thinking about locations and I looked back at every entry and location hasn't been really addressed. Since I'm from Los Angeles, I usually just tell people who aren't from here that we're from 'LA'. But, Los Angeles is comprised of area after specific area just like any other city. I had one question running through my head throughout the entire movie regarding Zach's CalArts acceptance and Shaun's living situation.

Are we (in this shiny, brand new fandom) going to accept that Zach goes to school at CalArts in Valencia which is about 30-45 minutes away from Los Angeles proper (downtown, Hollywood, the beach, etc.) and lives with Shaun off campus in an unknown location? I'm just trying to figure it out in my head because I envision Shaun living in the city which wouldn't be anywhere near Zach's campus even though he says that he lives close. Like, maybe he lives in Santa Clarita or Sylmar or SF Valley -- those areas. Or, am I just getting too specific and it doesn't even matter?

I'm going for the latter. Any opinions are welcomed though! Sorry if this has been discussed.
