"Catalonia, movie walks",a guide for creentourism

07/16/2014

This guide shows Catalonia from Pyrenees to the Ebre Lands, passing by Costa Brava and Barcelona, ​​through the movie walks of 175 films.

Catalonia has welcomed international films productions for more than 50 years and we can say that in the last 15 years the territory has been in the radar and mind of large productions. The proof is the long list of international renown movies shot in the capital city, Barcelona, and in other Catalan towns, such as L’auberge espagnole, Sáhara, Biutiful, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Haywire, Red Lights, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Perfume or films by Pedro Almodóvar and other classics such as Pandora and the Flying Dutchman, Suddenly, Last Summer or Falstaff.

To enlighten and summarize all that, now we have “Catalonia, Movie Walks”, a book-guide of the same collection as “Barcelona, Movie Walks”, this time dedicated to the whole region, Catalonia, that allows us to rediscover the country through 300 movie location tours and film anecdotes chosen from both Hollywood productions and independent film master pieces that have been shot with great actors, actresses and directors such as Ava Gardner, Elizabeth Taylor, Orson Welles, Robert de Niro, Woody Allen, Scarlett Johansson, Robert Pattinson and many more. Now, tourists and citizens can enjoy and remember the best scenes and popular locations where they were all shot in.

This book-guide, written by Eugeni Osàcar, has been published by Editorial Diëresis together with the Catalan Tourism Board.
