Movies filmed in Marseille

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Marseille as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than the statements above, so it gets its own list — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

  • Jean de Florette 1986
    “The village is now within the city limits of Marseille and had undergone extensive development since the 1950s, so Berri had to find alternatives.” Wikipedia
  • Rififi 1955
    “Rififis heist scene was based on an actual burglary that took place in 1899 along Marseille's cours St-Louis.” Wikipedia

Set here

Anime that take place here. Nothing drawn was ever filmed here, so this is where the story is set rather than where a camera stood — a different claim from everything above, and kept under its own heading for that reason. The rows marked per its source work are placed by the book they adapt rather than by a statement of their own.
