> [@Elendil\_s\_Heir](#): > > Did you know Gilda Radner’s screen debut was in _The Last Detail_? She’s in the party scene. I’m learning that as I’ve been reading the Wikipedia and IMDB pages as I watch. To my great surprise, parts of it were filmed in Toronto, my hometown. A few things looked really familiar, so I checked. Sure enough, what stood out were the scenes in Toronto’s Union Station, which I know very well, having taken many trains to and from there. But I’m thoroughly enjoying the film. I’ve never seen it before, but heard many good things about it. ---
