The Worldwide Guide to Movie Locations
Today's site, by author Tony Reeves, offers a fascinating site for movie
buffs and anyone curious about the seemingly exotic locations presented on
the silver screen. Gentle Subscribers will discover a wide-ranging
collection of locations from an ever-growing list of movies.
"Have you ever wondered 'Where did they film that?' Are you a 'set-jetter'?
The Worldwide Guide to Movie Locations is the essential travel guide to
filming locations of Hollywood blockbusters, indie cult films and arthouse
cinema throughout the world." - from the website
The site features dozens of attention-grabbing movie locations, such as the
entry for "Back to the Future" which displays great photos of real houses
in real neighborhoods in various parts of California, along with
informative notes on the specific locations. A highlight of the
presentation is the author's facility for demonstrating the
inter-connectedness and practicality of some movie-making ventures. For
example, the location of the Roman scenes, with additional computer
generated graphics, filmed on Malta for "Gladiator" was also used for
another blockbuster epic -- "Troy". For some of the films, supplementary
material from off site links is also provided. The collection may be
explored by film title, actor, director or location.
