Greystone Mansion has been featured in dozens of motion picture and television productions, including The Big Lebowski, Christopher Nolan’s Batman franchise, Eraserhead and There Will Be Blood. The latter’s grisly penultimate scene was filmed in the rarely open-to-public Greystone bowling alley. “This is a remarkable opportunity for history buffs, cinema fans and people interested in Los Angeles pop culture,” says Cindy Brynan, director of the Greystone Concours. “Of course, our Concours provides an unparalleled experience for automobile and motorcycle aficionados, but folks might not realize what a unique opportunity it is to be able to explore all of Greystone.”
