Film Locations in Paris, France

Amelie (Dir: Jean-Pierre Jeunet, 2001).

Café des Deux Moulins, 15 Rue Lepic, Rue Cauchois, Montmartre, Paris, France

This is a great film and Paris is a unique place to visit, especially the film’s director’s manor, Montmartre, so I was very disappointed to hear that most of the internal locations were shot in a German studio. The externals are all real though, and you can go to the Café des Deux Moulins where Amelie works and have a cognac and a crème brulee , it just doesn’t look how you want it to look. The metro station Amelie escorts the blind man from is Lamarch-Caulaincourt, you’ll know it for the double flights of staris, and the carousel from where Ameile leaves a trail for Nino is located at Place St. Pierre near the Basilica of Sacre-Cour. To help you get into the feel of things bring your orange tinted lenses and positive attitude.

About us

Stuck at your desk? Gazing out at those grey skies and imagining you are somewhere else?

I want to go here is all about inspiring you to do something different - about encouraging you to check out a new experience or destination. It's simple - we post something new every day. If you like the look of it, send it to a couple of friends. If not, wait and see what tomorrow brings. And if it gets past the fantasy stage, we'll soon have links to research the experience further, but you can also send us an email, and we'll tell you where to look or book next.
