College Movie Game

<p>mona lisa smile featured the Harvard Din and Tonics. And although I don't like Harvard, I have to say, they are really good and so cute in their coat tails.</p>

<p>Chasing Liberty: I think Many Moore got into Harvard (?) and decided to go to Oxford.
What a Girl Wants: Amanda Bynes got into Columbia I think and also decided to go to Oxford.</p>

<p>Neither were filmed on any campuses... but that's all I could think of.</p>

<p>No, Mandy Moore went to Harvard but spent a year abroad at Oxford in that movie, I believe.</p>

<p>I read somewhere that USC doubles up for the Harvard campus in some movies (such as Legally Blonde)</p>

<p>Oh you're right, zantedeschia. Lol and I accidentally called her Many Moore. whoops</p>

<p>hahha that's a funny slip.</p>

<p>freudian perhaps?</p>

<p>yeah, none of legally blonde and the other movies mentioned were filmed at harvard. legally blonde used USC for the outside and a high school for the inside. ( <a href="http://imdb.com/title/tt0250494/locations%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://imdb.com/title/tt0250494/locations&lt;/a> )</p>

<p>stealing harvard was filmed entirely in california</p>

<p>i don't know if it's that they refuse filming or that travelling there with the whole cast is expensive and time consuming so most movies don't bother</p>

<p>korean drama 'love story in harvard' was shot at usc. you can tell because of the referendums.</p>

<p>wait a min.....so "beautiful mind" wasnt filmed at harvard either?</p>

<p>"beautiful mind" was filmed at princeton, which is also the setting of the story. in fact, i think the real john nash still works at pton, although he doesnt teach anymore.</p>

<p>That he does; he does research and advises senior theses in the math department, and possibly does some work in the economics department as well? I definitely saw his office when I visited, and definitely squeed really loudly.</p>

<p>beautiful mind also briefly takes place at MIT i believe..</p>

<p>well, if TV shows count, the "Yale" in Gilmore Girls is Pomona.</p>

<p>No way! It's not at Yale?</p>

<p>lol noo it's not, their set is in california</p>

<p>but I believe they did visit Yale and took some shots and copied the dorm exactly</p>

<p>A number of movies including "Pat and Mike" and one of the Star Trek movies have been filmed at Occidental College. Some have referred to Occidental as the Princeton of the West. Does that make this comment appropriate for the Princeton forum?</p>

<p>The Exorcist was shot at Georgetown</p>

<p>Isn't it kinda funny that harvard can only attact movies that involve Redman and Reese Witherspoon. Academic powerhouses that they are........</p>

<p>lol, they don't need to attract intellectual movies to cement their academic prowess :D</p>

<p>hahaha, EA'ers unite! :)</p>
