Probably the most striking single location is the home in which Julianne Moore and Liam Neeson live. It overlooks a ravine, so when we saw it, we assumed it was in Rosedale, but the interiors, gorgeous and glassy, are in a Drew Mandel—designed home on Heathdale , overlooking the Cedarvale Ravine.
It allows for some cool shots. In this article , the architect mentions that the owners wanted to preserve at least a modicum of privacy, so the house used for shots of the front is actually this one , just down the street. The location that gets the second most amount of face time is the lovely Windsor Arms. Yeah, I can see that, but I wasn't heartbroken or anything. I live in a happy little world with people who want to make nice houses.
I do think Atom Egoyan did think it was an interesting house, and he's truly interested in modern architecture. Though once I thought about it for a while I can see how he wanted the glass, and all those shots through the glass, to suggest a kind of isolation, or emotional alienation. You're right though, that troubled people always get put in modern homes in the movies.
I've never done a house for a super-villain, though. Actually, I'd bet a super-villian would be a great client! See the Best Homes of !

But we hope our Toronto will get there to that Renaissance. One day :. Post a Comment Comments are moderated for spam.
