I don’t know about you but our Thanksgiving holiday weekend was spent watching Happiest Season… twice. Of course, you already know what Happiest Season is — the first queer holiday rom-com backed by a major studio. Starring Kristen Stewart, Mackenzie Davis, and the always infectious Dan Levy, the Hulu exclusive was released on Wednesday and it has been the talk of the Twitter-verse (we won’t delve into the debate on Harper’s choices right now). Folx in Pittsburgh have certainly been enjoying the film for all the notable scenes FILMED RIGHT HERE IN THE ‘BURGH.
Here are some of our favorite Pittsburgh highlights we enjoyed seeing in Happiest Season:
(Cation: mild spoilers ahead)
Lawrenceville
Dan Levy and Kristen Stewart walk down Butler Street in Lawrenceville debating the merits of marriage and many notable storefronts are visible.
The Vandal
Kristen Stewart and Dan Levy enjoy a cup of coffee at the Vandal while discussing the responsibilities of pet sitting that Dan’s character has offered to handle while Kristen’s character goes to meet the parents for Christmas.
Skelton Jewelry
The jewelry store scene takes place inside Skelton Jewelry on Penn Avenue.
The 16th Street Bridge
On their way home for Christmas, Kristen Stewart and Mackenzie Davis drive across the 16th Street Bridge.
Ross Park Mall
Kristen Stewart goes shopping for her “white elephant” present at Ross Park Mall.
Classic Pittsburgh Postcard
And of course, the movie opens with a classic postcard-style illustration of the view of Downtown from Mt. Washington.
