Behind The Screens: 100 Iconic Locations That Made Movie History

by Jane Crowther

Nerdy, addictive, and gloriously cinematic - this is the ultimate bucket list for movie lovers who take their fandom global.



Travel through the real-life locations behind cinema's most iconic moments, from the earliest days of film to today's biggest blockbusters. Packed with juicy behind-the-scenes stories and breathtaking photography, this is movie history you can actually experience for yourself. From Paris to Seoul, Hollywood to Hong Kong, discover:

ICONIC: The Lumière Brothers' La Ciotat Station - where cinema history began, and where you can still film your own arriving train.

DEATH-DEFYING: Jackie Chan's legendary Hong Kong stunt locations - the backdrop to some of cinema's most jaw-dropping action.

DINOSAUR-FILLED: The spectacular Hawaiian cliffs of Jurassic Park.

HAUNTING: Kyoto's Rashomon gates - one of Kurosawa's most evocative locations.

MAGICAL: Hobbiton's storybook hills - straight into Middle-earth.

SUN-SOAKED: Bond's Jamaican shores - where 007's tropical adventures come to life.

UNFORGETTABLE: The tunnel from Parasite in Seoul - one of the film's visually striking locations.

Each entry reveals why the film mattered, how it shaped moviemaking and, crucially, exactly where to go to stand where the magic happened.
