The Crooked Web

The real Stan's Diner, at the intersection of Sunset and Hollywood Blvds. in East Los Angeles, features prominently in the film. This particular Stan's, one of several operating in the Los Angeles area, no longer exists, but many other landmarks that still survive at this intersection are visible. Most notably, the Vista Theatre can been seen in several shots; this single-screen theater from 1926 is still in operation as of 2023.

In the back-projection driving scenes, the steering wheel movements bear no relation to what is seen out of the back window.
