Ep. 23: Kelly Stuart at Majers Coin Laundry from "Everything Everywhere All at Once"

Author: Jared Cowan June 4, 2023 Duration: 1:11:20
Location Manager Kelly Stuart joins us at Majers Coin Laundry, the San Fernando, CA laundromat featured as the home and business of the Wang family in the Best Picture-winning film "Everything Everyhwere All at Once." In what is arguably our most candid conversation to-date, Kelly talks about meeting with the film's creators, the challenges of finding the perfect laundromat, the spiritual "cleansing" of one of the film's locations, why location professionals deserve credit for their roles as creative collaborators, and much more. We're also joined by the owner of the location, Kenny Majers.

Ever wonder what it was really like to stand on that iconic street corner or inside that legendary movie set? On Location with Jared Cowan takes you there, microphone in hand. Hosted by photographer and film journalist Jared Cowan, this isn't just a discussion about scenes; it's an audio tour guided by the people who created them. Jared’s deep expertise, rooted in years of writing about Los Angeles filming locations-starting with an early deep-dive into the San Fernando Valley spots used in "The Karate Kid"-informs every conversation. Each episode is recorded on-site at the actual places where cinematic magic happened, featuring candid talks with the directors, crew, and actors who have stories you’ve never heard. The podcast pulls back the curtain on the practical realities, unexpected challenges, and fleeting moments of genius that occur when a location becomes a character. You’ll get the sense of standing beside Jared as he asks the questions that reveal how a simple place is transformed into an unforgettable piece of film history. It’s for anyone who has ever watched a movie and wanted to linger in that world just a little longer, understanding the concrete details behind the illusion.
