I didn't recognise the location while I was watching the scene, but I am deeply amused by the coincidence.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

It's not even 7 am and I've already been smiling for 10 mins, for it is #secretsantaaonz opening day! I am wandering home from the gym while stalking the feed. As usual, I am super impressed by everyone's gifts. I promise I'll open mine once I've showered and gotten dressed (in ~1hr) - EXCITED!

Veronica's soaps are lovely and would make a great gift.
Frustrating. I am getting zero reach on my soap FB page because apparently Meta wants everyone to pay for reach. ($87 a month for Business Plus!)
