Eyes of Laura Mars

“A sequence where the Laura Mars character photographs a group of models against a backdrop of two burning cars was filmed over four days at New York's Columbus Circle.” Wikipedia
- It Should Happen to You 1954
Named here by Columbus Circle’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Columbus Circle, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
