Happy 35th anniversary to PRETTY IN PINK, released on February 28, 1986. I’ve been to a couple of the locations over the years and finally sharing on this website.
The film opens on the streetcleaner on the 700 block of Hope Court in South Pasadena.
Surprisingly, the reverse shot is accurate as it turns onto Hope Street, right next to the train tracks, panning over to the house…
Andie’s house is at 1010 Hope Street in South Pasadena, California. This is right next to the alley from the beginning of Halloween II and just a block away from the iconic original Halloween locations.
Couple more shots as they appear in the movie…
The school is the often shot John Marshall High School best known for it’s appearances in A Nightmare On Elm Street and Grease.
Steff’s house is at 366 South June Street in Los Angeles.
Trax Records was located at 1460 34d Street Promenade in Santa Monica California.
Below are some more recent pics taken in 2026 of the same location….
Ducky (and his bike double) in Chinatown near downtown Los Angeles.
This prom scene was shot at the Biltmore Hotel at 506 South Grand Avenue in Los Angeles.
“Where’d you get your clothes, the five-and-dime store?” and “Your name is Jim?” are some of my favorite lines from Kate Vernon.
