Chocolat-rural Burgundy
Casanova-Venice
A Month at the Lake -Lake Como
Zorba the Greek- Crete

I can't think of them all right now.

The Italian Job comes to mind. The Indiana Jones movies.

But I just saw again today "The Man Who Knew Too Much"... and enjoyed seeing Marrakech. Excited all over again about heading to Morocco. Hoping to meet a less mysterious group of people than Jimmy Stewart did.

A Room with a View

Just tonight we watched Lion in the Winter w/ Katheryn Hepburn and Peter O'Toole about Eleanor of Aquitane and Henry II. We'll be in the Loire and Aquitane this Fall. The movie was fabulous.

We're also big fans of My Father's Glory and My Mother's Castle, and Jean de Florette and Manon des Source, both wonderful movies set in the south of France.

And, finally my favorite movie of all time, Cinema Paradiso.

Not sure these are "travel" movies, but they sure make me think of traveling! annieladd

"Until September" (Karen Allen and a french actor named Thierry? something)

"Sound of Music"...uh, the BEST!

"The King and I"....the latest one, beautiful shots.

"Heidi"....the one filmed over there.

"The Great Escape"....cool shots.

"Romancing the Stone"...okay shoot me.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon?"

"The Last Emperor"

"The Man From Snowy River"

Anything related to Jane Austen or the Bronte sisters....BBC puts on some GREAT productions..

Loved Horatio Hornblower!
Okay time to cut the list off! :)

Look forward to reading others!

(Tara, I think your family would love this wonderful movie about a boy who escapes from a prison camp post WWII and travels to Denmark from Eastern Europe.)

"The Bourne Identity" and "The Bourne Supremacy".

"Ronin" was scenic and action-packed.

On a lighter note and sort of embarrasing in light of some of the selections above, loaded with sophmoric humor, "Eurotrip" was a hoot. All the classic "American tourist in Europe" sterotypes.

Eurotrip

OK, as long as someone else admitted Eurotrip first, then I'll admit it too. :D

and I really intended and tried to hate that movie...

National Lampoon's European Vacation, with Chevy Chase and the Team.

My sincere thanks to Clifton and brando.

I didn't want to stand alone in this cultural Mecca as one that enjoyed that movie.

Never leave a man behind!

Les Vacances de M. Hulot (I think translated as Mr. Hulot's holidays) by Jacques Tati

Avanti
Obscured by Clouds
The Beach
Marrakech Express

Another vote for Enchanted April and from many years ago, The Third Man? Hope that is the name. Old Joseph Cotten and Orsen Wells film with a huge ferris wheel in it and I think the first thriller I ever saw.

So many... but my favourites:

Before sunrise
Before sunset

and...

L'auberge espagnole, it became even funnier when I saw it again while I was actually an exchange student in Barcelona myself. Lots of it was so true!

1. "To catch a thief". Excellent combination of the Cote d'Azur, Alfred Hitchcock, Grace Kelly and Cary Grant.

2. "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels". Villefranche sur Mer, Antibes, Steve Martin and Michael Caine.

1. Sound of Music - will always remain at the top!
2. Das Versprechen - German with subtitles about a couple separated by the Berlin wall.

Okay, I wasn't going to add this, but since others were brave enough to add Eurotrip, here goes...

The other day I was flipping through the guide on the tv and saw "Sabrina goes to Rome". I was bored so I turned it on. If you can get past the talking cat, there are some wonderful shots of the Spanish Steps, Via Condotta, Piazza Navona, the Trevi Fountain, the Forum and the Coliseum!

I have never heard of any of these movies. But, I don't really enjoy foreign films because I always miss what is going on in the film for reading the subtitles.

My favorite travel film is "Paper Moon" with Ryan and Tatum O'Neil. I think the black and white scenery of the American Mid-West is hypnotic. Too many rave about Switzerland and France, ignoring the fact that America is probably the most beautiful nation in the world.

I love
"Much Ado About Nothing" (Emma Thompson and Kenneth Branagh).
It's set in Tuscany and filmed at Villa Vignamaggio. Beautiful setting and amazing music!
