Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names George Town as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is, each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Movies filmed elsewhere in George Town

1 production shot at 4 places inside George Town, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against George Town itself.

Named here by George Town’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at George Town, 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.
