Synopsis

London is a magical place which has intrigued people for more than 2,000 years, and never is this more apparent than in the past 130 years following the invention of the moving image. Do you want to follow in the footsteps of Paddington, James Bond and Dorian Gray? Do you want to kiss in front of the blue door? Or look for the tomb of the resurrected Lord Blackwood? Or do you want to know where Richard Burton lived? Or where you can actually buy jewellery which was in the movies? If you do, then you're in the right place. London has been a draw for filmmakers for decades, and this book guides you through the locations, in the shadow of some of your favourite movies. Take a tour by movie, go on a movie pub crawl, a leisurely stroll through cemeteries with connections to the movies or create your own tour by postcode. This book will allow you to visit new parts of London but with the familiarity of a well-loved film. With more than 500 movie locations from 91 films covering more than six decades of movie making and more than 100 images, this book will have something for everyone and will show you London in a new, sparkling, glamourous light.

À propos de l'auteur

This is the first collaboration between Charlotte Booth and Brian Billington but it had been a long time in the making. Charlotte is a professional writer of history books (including The History of the Undead, and How to Survive in Ancient Egypt), and was also an extra in a Bollywood movie. Brian is an IT professional, amateur photographer, a lover of movies and working out locations. Over the years they've created personal movie location tours including Wells, Turin and London, and decided it was time to share this with others.
