The Graduate
Read MoreRecognize this church???
It is the United Methodist Church where it was filmed in the final scenes in the movie- The Graduate.
"Stopped in to a church I passed along the way
Well I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray" a verse from California Dreamin by the Mamas and the Pappas. That was what I did almost.
I slowly walked towards the church as a lady popped out of a building to my left and yelled, "Excuse me!" I took a quick knee to get one shot before I get kicked out. After one shot, the lady shouted louder, "EXCUSE ME!!" I stood up and waited for her. I introduced myself and explained that the Graduate is my favorite film and wanted to see this church in person. The lady smiled and said , "People keep on coming here despite all the years( 53 years )." "Let me unlock the door so you can go in." No indoor services due to Covid-19.
"Really?" "I can take pictures?" "Of course!" Unbelievable!!!
And I thought I was in trouble.
