Six Great Movies That Were Filmed In Historic Venice, Italy

CASINO ROYALE (2006)

The reboot of the most celebrated saga dedicated to the most famous secret agent in the world, this time played by Daniel Craig. Most of the scenes were shot in Venice, from Piazza San Marco to the Benedetto Marcello Music Conservatory.

CASANOVA (2005)

The adventures of one of the most famous seducers had to have been shot in Venice. Movie sets filmed in real Venetian Palaces, a market built in Fondamenta Della Misericordia, and even a Gondola ride around the Grand Canal.

THE TOURIST (2010)

A grandiose party shot in the Misericordia (external shots were instead the Fondaco dei Turchi), a house in the Giudecca, a plunge in the Grand Canal by Depp in the Rialto Market, a boat chase in the lagoon, and much more of Venice.

INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE (1989)

Just a few scenes, but nevertheless memorable ones. Jones exits the catacombs and stumbles through the tables of a splendid bar in Campo San Barnaba.

OTHELLO (1952)

The definitive Shakespearian masterpiece signed Orson Welles. A dazzling black and white picture that illuminates Venice, even if many scenes were shot in Viterbo, Tuscania, and even Morocco.

EVERYONE SAYS I LOVE YOU (1996)

Woody Allen loves Venice more than any other director. He often comes on vacation but in Everyone Says I Love You he did nothing short of filming a musical. If this isn’t inspirational! Julia Roberts teaches us to run in the Sant’Agnese piscina crossing the San Cristoforo bridge

A LITTLE ROMANCE (1979)

A French boy (Daniel) and an American girl (Lauren), who go to school in Paris, meet and begin a little romance. They befriend Julius, who enchants them with his storytelling. In an attempt to ensure the teens’ love forever, the three journey to Venice.
