But every character taking the elevator up presses for a mid level floor, the apartment door reads #48, and the window faces a much taller hi rise. So there is NO way that skylight would really be there. <br />Like “Barefoot in the Park,” another dated Broadway comedy of the same vintage, a tiny NY apartment reeks of charm.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03844901857511231794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6952132016236201534.post-81483548905364791672020-11-28T17:53:17.364-05:002020-11-28T17:53:17.364-05:00This same apartment was used in another movie as ...This same apartment was used in another movie as well.

And I noticed that I think the same set was used for Robert Morse's bachelor pad in Honeymoon Hotel.

It's like Doctor Who's Tardis -- basically, it's a a character in its own right. I saw the movie on TCM, and soon after saw another movie on TCM, Honeymoon Hotel with Robert Goulet and Robert Morse, I believe. One of them has an apartment that is almost identical to this one. I wonder if they "redressed" this set or if it was a common style of bachelor pad in the '60s.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12875066128375891493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6952132016236201534.post-3531014652172734852011-11-29T06:13:45.830-05:002011-11-29T06:13:45.830-05:00I just saw the movie yesterday and I immediately f...I just saw the movie yesterday and I immediately fell in love with the flat.
