    Trivia Question #6 Answer = B, Cameron's House from 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off'

    The house that Cameron lived in is actually located in Chicago and was on the market back in January. Check out this link for more information and several great shots of the house.

    The glass house shown in 'The Lake House' was designed and constructed for the movie. It was deconstructed after filming. Find specifics on the architect and the construction/deconstruction at this website:

    The hideout house (The Vandamm House) from 'North By Northwest' was a painting for the exterior while some of the interior shots were filmed on a sound stage. This website will walk you through several of the locations shown in the movie, the information on The Vandamm House is toward the bottom of the article.
