  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

the single greatest 1 LOCATION movie ever

As I can see from your's Kaliua. I do have one good friend in Honolulu,
he is a diver and photographer (vr panoramas), and I have a plan to get it there soon as possible...
but have a look now at the two examples of Vittorio Storaro's masterpieces...

There's also, along the "nearly one location" lines the likes of Reservoir Dogs, of course.

I can't believe it took to page 4 to appear! You can certainly count locations, (breakfast, warehouse, car, sidewalk (intro) and streets around the store, and exterior of warehouse (for a brief showing of the hostage cop),and it's simply excellent!
 
great article on antonioni, third man! i really related to him, and it, and everything. its funny how no matter how much things change, they stay the same...

i've seen every other movie listed here, so thats now on my list. i want to make something magical, worthy of the Red, but have the confines of one location. its going to be tough...
 
I'm going to have to give a nod to 12 Angry Men and Glengarry Glen Ross. Both were great, but 12 Angry Men definitely takes the cake.
 
Not a movie but... Gilligan's Island.

Because I can't think of one single location movie that hasn't been mentioned. I'll try though. :)
 
I have to vote for Hitch.

One just came to mind. A Scifi movie from 1985 "Enemy Mine". Not strictly one location but very close.

How about The Terminal?
Spielberg and Tom Hanks

Good call. I think this is one of those highly underrated movies out there. Brilliant performance from Tom Hanks, and beautiful photography courtesy of Janus Kaminski. If you can get past the implausibility of the premise, it's a great story. And Catherine Zeta Jones is smokin' hot! :clown2:
 
I completely spaced out The Terminal. Agree - great movie.

I still think Hitchcock holds the crown here though. So much of his work defined much of the suspense/thriller/horror genres as we see them today. 12 Angry Men definitely gets a nod.

I also thought of Enemy Mine, but discarded it because after thinking on it a bit more, it really wasn't just one location. But most of it takes place on the alien planet. Too bad it was somewhat low budget (and the FX show it, even for '85) and I think it deserved some better dialogue and tweaks to some of the script. But overall, it's an underrated sci fi movie. Dennis Quaid was OK in it, but Louis Gossett Jr. was great as the Drak alien.
 
Speaking of Tom Hanks, Cast Away was a very good film. I realize there were several locations, but it was mostly on the island. I never seem to get tired of watching the plane crash sequence and the whole "Survivor" aftermath up until he gets rescued. The scene where he splits his own tooth still makes me cringe.
 
hard to beat Hitch, we keep coming back to him for good reason.
