It has been confirmed that the old private cinema is now unavailable. Among my cast were those who checked up for us and it has been confirmed that San Juan Bautista, being next door to the San Andreas Fault, has apparently developed various geological instabilities throughout the town. Apparently the Plaza Hotel is not the only old building in the town in a precarious position!
Hope everyone in San Juan Bautista are alright though and making sure they are prepared if any earthquakes hit that do more than rattle and roll things! (At least something that makes the town shake and car alarms go off more than the weekend bikers on Sunday afternoons!) 0:)
We also have some more answers about our Pacific Grove CA location. Hmmmm...looks like it's definitely Lighthouse Avenue we are looking for but given a suggestion from one of our Executive Producers today, we may also be continuing our search further afield.

Also may be re-thinking what percentage CGI sets and locations to use or a combination. Lots of possibilities!
If anybody among cast or crew know of any old houses with private cinemas (preferably Victorian or at least Edwardian), can you let us know? It would need to be an original private cinema, not a modern one: They were usually in basements.
Anything along these lines (Queen Anne style) or vintage:
Rotha 1887
In the meantime, thankfully our Executive Producer has clear memories of the cinema in San Juan Bautista and hopefully they may be able to work with our Art Department to re-create a useful replica. As the Executive Producer said to me this afternoon, the cinema in San Juan Bautista was quite possibly too small for filming in anyway so if we do decide to re-create something (either virtually or literally), we can order it to size.
Thank-you again to the other Executive Producer and also the cast and crew who are helping us out here! 0:)
