Northway" or Petit Trianon Deux is a scaled down nearly identical copy of the original from Versailles. After receiving permission from the French government to replicate one of France’s national treasures, Laura Robinson, heiress to the Diamond Match and Goodyear Tire fortunes, hired New York architects, J. Edwin R. Carpenter and Walter D. Blair. Constructed between 1910 and 1913. Le Petit Trianon = "the small" chateau". The original was constructed in the 1760s for the mistress of King Louis XV, Madame de Pompadour. Later used as an escape by Marie Antoinette. The mansion has been preserved on film. Several years ago Reverge Anselmo shot scenes for his film "Stateside," a romantic drama starring Val Kilmer and Carrie Fisher, at the mansion. Anselmo is of Italian descent, was born in Mexico and grew up in New York City and Connecticut. He is a former US Marine Corp combat veteran who fought in Beirut, Lebanon in the 1980s. His latest film, Stateside (2004) is an autobiographical love story that took place in his late teens. He is President of Seven Hills Pictures which he founded in 1998 after the success of his film The Outfitters (1999), which was a Sundance Film Festival official selection. He is also a partner in First Look Studios, which produces and distributes independent films. Anselmo's father, Rene Anselmo, was the co-founder for the predecessor of Univision and the Spanish International Network, and in 1984 founded PanAmSat, where he placed his personal funds on the line to launch the world's first privately owned international satellite. Pan Am Sat sold to General Motors in the early 1990s. In 2004, Rene Anselmo was named in the top 10 of "100 People Who Made a Difference in Space" by Space News International. In addition to Reverge's film career, he is one of the founders and partners for a Catholic publication called Magnificat and has also helped build Catholic monasteries in Chile, The Catskill Mountains and France. He has a helicopter pilot's license, is fluent in four languages, wrote a book of short stories entitled "Knocked Up On Jupiter", is an avid horseback rider and doesn't like computers. As a result he handwrites all of his scripts, letters and short stories. Anselmo penned a novel in 1997 published by Harper Collins, entitled "The Cadillac Of Six-By's". He spends his days working on his cattle ranch/vineyard in Northern California. He had a number of books on spirituality and is interested in it.
