Can I move in? Buildings, sets and filming locations that take your breath away

[JustHereForFood]

I haven't found a topic for this, but if it already exists, I'll be happy to have this merged.

Basically, I wanted a topic to discuss and share pictures of movie locations that we find beautiful or fascinating. It can include existing locations in nature, cities, castles, etc. that have been used as substitute for fictional locations, or sets that have been built specifically for the movie, or even cgi-created scenery.

To start, just some of my favorites:

Harry Potter:

Hogwarts, of course, is one of the places every child of certain generation wanted to visit.

The now famous Glenfinnan Viaduct in Scotland:

we stopped there on my trip to Scotland and it looks just as amazing in real life.

 

The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit:

just an amazing, cozy place to live.

 

 

And of course, no topic about filming locations could be complete without The Sound of Music:

Some beautiful Jane Austen locations:

Barton Cottage from Sense and Sensibility:

 

Pride and Prejudice (2005), maybe a bit overdramatic for some, but I really love this scene:

 

[Browncoat]

The house from Knives Out.

[Epeolatrix]

The Owens House from Practical Magic.

[Mabinogia]

I LOVE that house. It's one of the main reasons I always wanted to be a witch. They have the best houses. 

[Epeolatrix]

Hannibal Lecter's office. I really like it as a set design, although it's not quite what I think of as a 'livable' space.

The Frank Lloyd Wright inspired house in North by Northwest.

The house form Parasite.

It even has a bomb shelter.

I love the ranch house in the original Parent Trap.

I hear that since that film was released, Disney has been inundated with requests for the blueprints for the house!  It was revealed only the exterior was built for the film and the interiors were all interior studio sets.  I wonder how many people tried to recreate them anyway?  I always liked the look of the house too!

It only took a couple of movies set in Montana for that to hit bucket list.  I'd really love to go horseback riding there.

I loved the darling Craftsman house in Sleeping with the Enemy.

The house in Ex Machina,

minus the human killing AI elements. 

In real life, it's a hotel in Norway.

I'm not generally big an open indoor spaces, but that view is stunning.

I’ve always wanted to go to Montana and see the sky. 
 

Shots from Legends of the Fall.

I have just watched Tre nøtter til Askepott, a Norwegian remake of 1973's Three Nuts for Cinderella. I will probably provide a more detailed summary of my thoughts in another thread, once I am certain what those are, but my first thought is that the scenery was absolutely breathtaking. I believe it was shot in Norway and it was just so beautiful, the mountains, the snow, Aurora borealis. 

Now I want Disney to make a live-action version of Frozen and shoot it in Norway.

I want to live in one of the bungalows in Swing Shift.  If I like all the neighbors.
