Where is Williamsburg in Unorthodox Located: Real Place or Fiction?

Where is Williamsburg in Unorthodox Located? While watching the gripping TV series Unorthodox on Netflix, the question which kept popping up in our mind goes: Where the hell is this place? Is Williamsburg real in the geographical sense or is it fiction? Whaaat, wait, is it actually in goddamn New York City?

Now, we gotta say that most of our confusion — actually it’s more incredulity than confusion — really stems from the fact that we are used to seeing religious groups with non-mainstream practices thrive in more isolated areas. You know, think Amish in Pennsylvania, Mormons in Utah, and the Hutterite colony in Saskatchewan, Canada which we happened to visit ten years ago.

The answer: She ain’t. She is straight and actually has a boyfriend. His name is Payson Lewis and, like Leah, is also in the entertainment biz. He identifies as a singer on his Instagram account (@paysonlewis) but he is also an actor with, to date, 15 acting credits to his name on IMDB.

Where Exactly is Squahamish: The Half of It Movie Location

Where Exactly is Squahamish? Let’s take a break blogging about the boys of Alice Wu’s The Half of It (which rightfully deserves the applause it is receiving from critics and fans alike) and check out the town of Squahamish where the story takes place, shall we?

squahamish town location - the half of it movie

While Deena and I were watching the movie, we were kinda debating where the town is exactly located. I suggested it’s somewhere in Oregon while she thinks it’s in the Midwest. Because we continued to disagree, we decided to make a bet on who can tag the town closest. I thought she’s gonna win when Iowa was mentioned towards the end of the film but when we googled to find out who’s going to wash the dishes, we discovered that the “Happening Town of Squahamish” actually does not exist.

Wolfgang Novogratz Shirtless, Girlfriend, Family

Wolfgang Novogratz Shirtless, Girlfriend, Family. Did you watch Alice Wu’s The Half of It already? Not yet? Well, what are you doing? Go check it out now on Netflix. It’s a really cool coming-of-age story about a nerdy Asian girl and a jock but shy white boy who fall for the same Latina girl who is in a relationship with a handsome and rich WASP guy who knows that he is handsome and rich.

We already blogged about the actor who plays the shy jock — see our post on Daniel Diemer — so, this time, we’ll be focusing on the guy who plays the rich dude: Wolfgang Novogratz. He may a douchebag in the movie but Wolfie (yeah, we’re going to give him a nickname) looks like a chill papi in real life.
