filmed in London
 

many of my friends seem to be coming from London or going there, so I FIGure Why not<BR>a film thread.<BR>I'll start with two films that feature one of my all time favorites(remember women love?)stars, Glenda Jackson<BR>1.SUNDAY, BLOODY, SUNDAY<BR>2.TOUCH OF CLASS.

"Notting Hill" with Julia Roberts.

The World of Henry Orient, starring the late Peter Sellars.

Bridget Jones Diary, Sliding Doors with Gwyneth Paltrow, The Adventurers.<BR>Judy :-)

DIVA!

Notting Hill<BR>Bits of Harry Potter<BR>Any James Bond film<BR>Bits of Mission Impossible 1<BR><BR>I'm still thinking...

I think DIVA was filmed in Paris by Luc Besson

film buff. You are right. Sorry for my error. Wasn't "Truly, Deeply" filmed in London?

Two more I can think of right now:<BR><BR>"Mary Poppins" (Julie Andrews) <BR>"My Fair Lady" (fabulous Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison)

Many years ago, a film with Oliver Reed, I think it was called The Crown Jewels Affair, about two rich brothers who steal the jewels out of boredom.<BR>Alan Bates in Nothing but the Best, and Georgie Girl.

most Julie Christie films, one old one called Far from the Madding Crowd.

Here goes:<BR><BR>Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels <BR>101 Dalmatians<BR>Spice Girls The Movie<BR>Sense & Sensibility<BR>American Werewolf In London<BR>Four Weddings & A Funeral<BR>Shakespeare In Love <BR>Mansfield Park <BR>Elizabeth<BR>Harry Potter<BR>Trainspotting<BR>Entrapment<BR>

Bob Hoskins in The Long Good Friday and in Mona Lisa

Bits of "If It's Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium" with a very young Patricia Routledge as a museum tourguide.

I am trying to find a film I saw many years ago. A teen age boy has a crush on an older girl whom he follows with her dates. I think that girl was played by Mariane Faithful. The tragic climatic scene takes place in a swimming pool and I believe the film was titled Deep End. Does anyone know this film and is it available?

Speaking of Patricia Routledge, I believe To Sir With Love was done in London. I just found out recently that a young Patricia Routledge had a part in that.<BR>

One that we got out of the $4 DVD pile that was a banner choice...<BR><BR>SMASHING TIME<BR><BR>From the late '60s. Stars one of the Redgraves, a young woman named Rita Tushingham, and Michael York in his film debut. 'Austin Powers' was visually modeled after this film -- it is stunnin(gly bad). It's a musical about two girls from the North who come to London to go to Carnaby Street and be groovy. It's amazing.<BR><BR>I am hoping against all hopes that a copy of this soudtrack exists somewhere in London, and that I'll be able to find it in March!! If anyone has a lead, lemme know.

"Blow Up". Michelangelo Antonioni's famous cult movie (1966) starring Vanessa Redgrave, David Hemmings, and, if I remember well, also Twiggy.

The Great Muppet Caper! Metroland.

INDISCREET (1958) Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman, directed by Stanley Donen. This picture made me want to go to London and it's what films aren't anymore...effortlessly charming.<BR><BR>And to be accurate, MY FAIR LADY and MARY POPPINS were set in London, but filmed in Los Angeles and Burbank, California respectively.

Oh Mimi, I loved Touch of Class! Especially when George Segal couldn't get the car out of second gear. Was Alfie filmed in London? Didn't Midnight Lace with Doris Day and Rex Harrison take place there too? Oh, I'm showing my age. Glad to hear that others remember those great movies from the 60's too. How about parts of Hard Day's Night and Help?

Madame Sousatka, with Shirley MacLaine and Twiggy. Very British. Love Pride and Prejudice, too.

Speaking of Rita Tushingham-how about<BR> A TASTE OF HONEY?<BR> <BR><BR>

For Ursula;<BR>that was jane Birkin was later fame is as a french actress and married to Serge Gainsboro. His daughter Charlotte is featured in this season's La Buche.

Taste of Honey was filmed in Liverpool.

Is Liverpool not in London?<BR>ROYAL WEDDING<BR> with Fred Astaire and some vintage shots of Queen Elizabeth..<BR>MORGAN with<BR>Vanessa Redgrave and David Warner~<BR>do we win a prize:) ?

C-no Liverpool is a seperate city. Morgan is a very funny film and holds up well. Georgie girl was with Lynn Redgrave and Charlotte Rampling. I think Alan Bates was the male lead.

Hi Mimi, I loved "Goodbye Mr. Chips", with Peter O'Toole and Petula Clark. Remember the song "London is London"? I always hear that when I think of London. <BR>judy :-)

Nobody mentioned the last James Bond movie (I forgot the name of it) where he falls off the hot air balloon and falls onto the millenium dome. The chase scene on the Thames was exciting.

This is great, you are all hot!Now how could I forget one of the funniest films of all time-a must see,<BR>"The lavender Hill Mob".

Was Frenzy photographed in London?

FRENZY was filmed in London, so was Hitchcock's STAGE FRIGHT (Dietrich is marvelous, but the rest of the film is dullsville). FRENZY is one of the few films that does not have the Hitchcock walk-on. Originally, an opening shot was to feature a body floating face up on the Thames. On closer view, it was a dummy that resembled Hitchcock. As I recall, the shot was scrapped, as Hitch felt it was a "comic" opening to what was his most grim and uncompromising film.

Speaking of Hitchcock: The Man Who Knew Too Much? <BR>Wings of the Dove?

How about the original "Bedazzled" with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore?

In Frenzy,when the crowd is gathered at the edge of the water while they fish the body out of the water, Alfred Hitchcock is one of the crowd..he looks and then turns away..<BR>*Was Lolita with James Mason in London? :) this is fun~c

film buffs, here are more great films.<BR>Alec Guinness, in Joyce Cary's "The Horse'S Mouth,<BR>Oliver Reed, in"I'll nver forget What's 'IsName",<BR>Alec Guiness in "LadyKillers,<BR>Sidney Poitier "To Sir, with Love",<BR>and one of my favorites, "THT SERVANT"<BR>with Dirke Bogart and Sarah Miles.

Kubrick's "Full Metal Jacket"<BR>believe it or not...

Topping for Joyce.
