Larry led the tour pointing out locales mentioned in Armistead's novels, as well as other historical information. We enhanced the experience by playing clips on an iPad from the miniseries at the locations they were filmed. We also talked about the influence of Hitchcock in the "Tales" mini-series, and other movies that were filmed in San Francisco.
I want to personally thank Larry for organizing an amazing day roaming the world of Anna Madrigal and tenants, to Armistead and Chris for making the evening a memorable one, and the folks that came to share their stories of what the "Tales" universe means to them. I met some amazing people that I look forward to seeing again in the near future. Armistead's influence extends beyond being a great storyteller, through his work, I have befriended a handful of fans that surround the globe.
Included in the tour were Scott and Brandon from San Francisco, Peter and Maggie from England, Tim and Alicia from New York, Trish and Cindy from California, Nancy Snell and myself from Indiana, and tour guide Larry Rhodes from New Mexico.
