Places whose own article says it was shot there
1 place whose own Wikipedia article names this film as something shot there, where Wikidata records nothing and this film’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.

Knutsford England
“Scenes from the George C. Scott film Patton were filmed in the centre of Knutsford, in front of Knutsford Town Hall.” Wikipedia
Recorded only at country level
Wikidata also records this film as shot in Almería Province, Greece, Spain, without saying where. Those statements are true but unmappable (a pin in the middle of a country would claim something nobody wrote), so they are listed here instead of guessed at.
Filming locations that are mapped there: Spain · Greece
Its Wikipedia article also names Belgium as where this film was shot, without naming a place inside that could be pinned. That is prose rather than a Wikidata statement, and it is labelled here as such rather than guessed at.
