The Korean Bell of Friendship
Monday, July 12th, 2004 | The Usual Suspects |
Reader Tana* has another find. I had Googled without luck to try to find the actual place where the suspects met Redfoot. I refered to it as “the Asian temple” because of its architecture. Tana linked to The Usual Supects entry at Movie-Locations.com:
It was shot mainly around Los Angeles, with just a bit of New York thrown in. The huge bell, where the suspects meet up with Redfoot, is the Korean Bell of Friendship, Angels Gate Park, South Gaffey Street down in San Pedro. The bell, presented by Korea during the US bicentennial celebrations in 1976, is on a breathtaking wild bluff overlooking the harbour of San Pedro to the east and the Palos Verdes Peninsula to the west. Take time out to get away from the usual tourist spots of LA and drive down to this unexpectedly beautiful spot.
Another mystery solved. I found a bunch of suspects-related material recently. Tune in Wednesday for more. Here’s a close-in shot of the bell:

* I keep saying “reader Tana” because my sister’s name is Tana, and I want to avoid any confusion for people who know my family.
