Filming locations

Also per Wikipedia's article

The article names 17 more places. A sentence in an article is weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, so these are listed apart, never mixed into the statement list, and the claim links straight to where it came from.

Places whose own article says it was shot there

4 places 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.

Recorded only at country level

Wikidata also records this film as shot in Canton of Berne, Switzerland, 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.
