Just a note re: the church Laura goes into to pray--the exterior is San Stae, but the interior scenes appear to have been filmed in the Church of Zanipolo (Giovanni e Paolo) in Castello.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the correction.
DeleteThe San Lazzaro dei Mendicanti church exterior is shown when Laura decides to light a candle. It is not San Stae. Look at the statues or the building to the right in the movie to verify this. Credit goes to Jeff Cotton of the Fictional Cities site for identifying this church.
DeleteThank you for the correction.
DeleteThis is one of my favorite movies! Looking forward to my visit to Venice this coming September.
ReplyDeleteI can tell you several more locations. The night they get lost, Laura is on Ponte Storto when John shouts to her from Fondamenta Drio Ruga Giuffa. They meet up and walk along Calle Castagna (optician's sign behind them) and emerge into Ruga Giuffa. There is another scene where they are on Ponte del Remedio.
ReplyDeleteThe place where John follows Laura when she meets the two sisters is in Corte Barbo, off Campiello Mosca, off Crosera San Pantalon. There are scenes in the Giardini Pubblici where Laura meets the two sisters (statue of Minerva on lion in background). John and Laura go through a gate into Secco Marina.
ReplyDeleteSorry. Not Secco Marina. They go through a gate from Viale Trento into Rio TerĂ San Giuseppe.
ReplyDeleteI took a look at the house today. It's just down the road from where I live. Couldn't believe that one of my favourite films had a connection to Broxbourne. I'd driven past hundreds of times and never realised.
