My old high school was the filming location for all the school scenes in American Beauty. It was pretty cool; they beautified the campus and added a bunch of flowers, and (of course) changed the name of the school in the gym (although they kept our mascot). In a way though, it was kind of weird because when I saw the movie, I'd see the place where my friends and I hang out, and the ACTORS would be there instead.
Oh, and if I remember correctly, I think they took all the flowers when they were done. Or they died. I can't remember which.
