Thought I'd do a little resurrecting on this thread and give my list to kick it all off again.<BR>1) Roman Holiday:- Rome (obviously) but really who could resist the beautiful, gamine Audrey Hepburn<BR>2) To Catch a Thief:- Riviera and Grace Kelly at her absolute most knock-out, sexy, iconic self.<BR>3) Shallow Grave:- Edinburgh... the blackest of black humour.<BR>4) The Ladykillers:- London... specifically post-war London still with huge Luftwaffe made building sites.<BR>5) The Third Man:- Vienna has never been filmed so darkly and scarily, Orson Welles was no never malevolent.<BR><BR>Great films in Europe all, and I can think of a dozen more...

Ladybug,<BR><BR>In your original post, didn't you mean Beef Wellington? I seem to remember a Duke Ellington. Oh, well.<BR><BR>Nobody mentioned IF IT'S TUESDAY, IT MUST BE BELGIUM. Pretty good movie, and certainly gives one pause about "tours".<BR><BR>Also heartily agree with DAY OF THE JACKEL, TO CATCH A THIEF and THE THIRD MAN. Fortunately, we have all of these on tape and can view at our leisure.<BR><BR>I saw TEA WITH MUSSOLINI on an airplane. I thought Cher looked she had been embalmed. A real snoozer.<BR><BR>One final addition, IS PARIS BURNING with Orson Welles. The book is even better.<BR><BR>Count Basie

This is such a great thread. Wish I had them all on a shelf of my very own. I've just about worn out my copy of "Enchanted April". Did any children recommend "The Moonspinners"?

Topkapi, for scenes of Turkey.

I really like the Accidental Tourist. I also second Mediterraneo. You will want to be on a Greek island after watching it. Also, Gosford Park is interesting. Takes place in England just before WWII. I also second Before Sunrise. And The Third Man takes place in Vienna. It's in black and white and stars orson welles.
