Such a wonderful essay about an iconic house. My father grew up on the island, and my parents moved there when they retired. My Mom was an extra in the movie. They filmed her in two scenes. One landed on the cutting floor, the other is about 2 seconds in the "Christmas" scene. I know several other extras in the movie.

So wonderful to read this - I have a deep heart connection to the film Garp- I have seen it dozens of times as well! This morning I wondered about the house and here I am. Garp was my all time favorite movie for several decades but then Waking Life came along- the first movie to unfold as life unfolds for me… so it is still my second fave and I think I will watch it tonight😃❤️🙏🌊🌏
