alt=\"Scene from The Batman filmed in Liverpool\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ve previously mentioned the filming of &#8220;The Batman,&#8221; starring Robert Pattinson, <a href=\"https:\/\/liverpool-trend.com\/uk\/eternal-1471-zjomky-filmu-betmen-u-liverpuli\">here<\/a>. It&#8217;s a truly unique blockbuster, especially considering how perfectly Liverpool served as the backdrop for Gotham City. In 2020, filming took place across the city and could hardly go unnoticed, particularly when residents spotted the actor in the famous superhero costume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sherlock_Holmes_2009\"><\/span>Sherlock Holmes (2009)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Blockbuster, detective thriller, action film \u2013 these all aptly describe &#8220;Sherlock Holmes,&#8221; starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law, which was filmed at Stanley Dock. The docks were used to create a scene set in London&#8217;s warehouses, where the tangled plot kicks off. After saving Sherlock&#8217;s love interest from a grim fate, Watson and Holmes pursue Lord Henry Blackwood, who has set a devious explosive trap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Captain_America_The_First_Avenger_2011\"><\/span>Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This film is a must-see for Marvel Comics fans, and once again, Liverpool&#8217;s Stanley Dock takes centre stage. In &#8220;Captain America: The First Avenger,&#8221; Steve Rogers is transformed into the super-soldier we all recognise after being exposed to &#8220;Vita-Rays.&#8221; In his first action sequence, Steve Rogers chases a Hydra agent through Stanley Dock. Over 500 actors descended on the city, transforming Liverpool&#8217;s docks into 1940s New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kelly_Victor_2012\"><\/span>Kelly + Victor (2012)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.liverpool-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2024\/06\/1_ad_4nxdrp88_z9bjebj8ywhelnccnhmp0_9dsy9ffvnqhiotex6zrl0kmqn59f-ugzituawroksmcv5vxqhqti1kjk8iqplaf9uz_koqgofffcobscpokypl2wuml-fioe7mzh1mlletalckz8hzwwy3_lorcobykeyjcr6qpghkgeiwo1ou564sa.png\" alt=\"A scene from the film Kelly + Victor\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This story centres on two artworks in the Walker Art Gallery: Giovanni Segantini&#8217;s 1891 painting &#8220;The Punishment of Lust&#8221; and Alfred Gilbert&#8217;s 1908 statue &#8220;Mors Janua Vitae.&#8221; Kelly and Victor go on their first proper date after meeting in a nightclub and spending a passionate night together. But problems soon arise when Victor fails to understand Kelly&#8217;s cues regarding their intimacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The film has a strict age rating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nowhere_Boy_2009\"><\/span>Nowhere Boy (2009)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As a port, Liverpool was exposed to overseas influences faster than other British cities, and rock and roll quickly made its way across the Atlantic. This film tells the story of a young John Lennon (find other films about The Beatles and its members here) and his relationships with his family. While the screenplay deviates significantly from the truth, it accurately captures the atmosphere of 1950s Liverpool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Harry_Potter_and_the_Deathly_Hallows_Part_1_2010\"><\/span>Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (2010)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Liverpool is featured in a stunning scene filmed in the Queensway Tunnel. In the sequence, Harry and Hagrid race through the tunnel, narrowly avoiding oncoming buses and cars. The shoot was kept secret and conducted at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fantastic_Beasts_and_Where_to_Find_Them_2016\"><\/span>Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another instance where Liverpool stood in for New York, this time from the 1920s. Key locations featured include St George&#8217;s Hall and the iconic Cunard Building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Distant_Voices_Still_Lives_1988\"><\/span>Distant Voices, Still Lives (1988)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Director Terence Davies, known for his short films, crafts a deeply personal version of Liverpool in this work, a theme he would revisit throughout his career. The plot of &#8220;Distant Voices, Still Lives&#8221; pieces together fragments of a working-class family&#8217;s life. Davies adheres to a realist approach, allowing for a truthful portrayal of brutal and sorrowful moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Letter_to_Brezhnev_1985\"><\/span>Letter to Brezhnev (1985)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.liverpool-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2024\/06\/1_ad_4nxda63wil1dq_y3ghmektnjp9yqrqf9ezn0dwbqsjglnkdpb3mvq13ugxcy0rwdcf7r2uxhckaarnranzof34twltgkzwdbiwfo1v2hrhifgm6pvjczwtea4s9ng9bh2lvbbw1xixsvkvdkuau75olvzrtukeyjcr6qpghkgeiwo1ou564sa.png\" alt=\"Promotional image for Letter to Brezhnev\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The plot of &#8220;Letter to Brezhnev&#8221; follows two girls from Kirkby who meet Soviet sailors and try to reconnect with them. Filmed in Liverpool in just three weeks, this story, filled with humour and romance, showcases the city&#8217;s defiant spirit and perfectly captures the prevailing mood of the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Educating_Rita_1983\"><\/span>Educating Rita (1983)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The story follows Rita, a hairdresser who decides to better her life by enrolling in an Open University literature course, where her tutor is the alcoholic professor, Frank. Although filmed in Dublin, the story retains its strong Liverpool influence, as the main character hails from the city. The film was nominated for an Oscar and won a Golden Globe and a BAFTA, highlighting Liverpool&#8217;s cultural contribution to the world of cinema.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gumshoe_1971\"><\/span>Gumshoe (1971)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The plot follows Albert Finney as a bingo caller and part-time stand-up comedian who dreams of becoming a detective like his hero, Sam Spade. He unexpectedly finds himself embroiled in an adventure after placing an ad in the newspaper on his birthday. Filmed in Liverpool, the movie showcases many locations that have since disappeared or changed, evoking a nostalgia for a city whose 1960s boom proved to be illusory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creed_2015\"><\/span>Creed (2015)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This boxing film features Liverpool boxer Tony Bellew, who plays Ricky Conlan in the first instalment. The climactic fight scene, along with much of the film, was shot at Everton FC&#8217;s stadium, Goodison Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Alfie_2004\"><\/span>Alfie (2004)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.liverpool-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2024\/06\/ad_4nxdeypvuf2aabx4flqmcqdsns8kob4wuhksyzfrpqqfxmtup-ilcnbkwxqcdf1wwkzjy4yfhpmkvin_ijoli-s3ha8s683yzvbeazahavpl55nolhwuknztkh6nk9czplembk7nvtmk8bwwqgw-cvrfeg1hzkeyjcr6qpghkgeiwo1ou564sa.png\" alt=\"Jude Law in the 2004 film Alfie\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2004, a modern remake of Michael Caine&#8217;s 1966 classic hit the cinemas. In this version, two scenes where the protagonist contemplates changing his lifestyle were filmed in Liverpool. The locations used were Formby beach and a flower shop on Brunswick Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Florence_Foster_Jenkins_2016\"><\/span>Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This touching film about the power of self-belief portrays the true story of a woman who loved to sing, despite her lack of talent. Liverpool was used as a primary filming location, with nearly all the scenes set in New York being shot in the city centre, particularly on Water Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fast_Furious_6_2013\"><\/span>Fast &amp; Furious 6 (2013)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The films in this high-octane franchise have been shot all over the world, including America, Japan, and Abu Dhabi, and the sixth instalment made a stop in Liverpool. A chase scene involving veteran Vin Diesel, supposedly taking place in London, was actually filmed in Liverpool&#8217;s Queensway Tunnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Yentl_1983\"><\/span>Yentl (1983)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.liverpool-trend.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/60\/2024\/06\/1_ad_4nxco6fe1sfnbqfak3h1koq6bj-ycfldhelm2lreiacwzg90gfcuyzwvlewrtr2vxrjh22sau8u5vpteqsm-fcb_ok8ansnz_jfymgoanoxvw28jv4dvk2whliwdwtxzbuo2o1moqjxfy2uj2w1hgxooyylkmkeyjcr6qpghkgeiwo1ou564sa.png\" alt=\"Barbra Streisand in Yentl\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Yentl&#8221; is the remarkable story of a Jewish woman with a passion for education. The protagonist disguises herself as a man to gain access to religious studies. In the film&#8217;s finale, she leaves Europe, sailing on a vessel to the USA. In reality, the &#8216;Atlantic Steamer&#8217; was an Isle of Man ferry on the River Mersey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Reckoning_1969\"><\/span>The Reckoning (1969)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The film follows Michael, played by Nicol Williamson, who returns to the north to avenge his father&#8217;s death while also plotting a coup at his London-based tech company. He seeks out the culprits whom the police are unwilling to pursue, all while attempting to seduce his married secretary, Rachel Roberts. The film uses locations on both sides of the River Mersey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Golden_Vision_1968\"><\/span>The Golden Vision (1968)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This classic football film blends the life story of Scottish forward Alex Young with the devotion of Everton fans. During a period when the club was embroiled in a betting scandal, these supporters remained loyal, even following the team to away matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Violent_Playground_1958\"><\/span>Violent Playground (1958)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The portrayal of juvenile delinquency in this social problem film by director Basil Dearden is unflinching. Using Liverpool as its setting, the film explores the controversial thesis that crime is born from poverty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Penny_Paradise_1938\"><\/span>Penny Paradise (1938)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The plot centres on a party thrown by tugboat captain Edmund Gwenn in his local pub after a big win on the football pools. However, his celebrations are cut short by some bad news. This classic drama skilfully captures the sense of community in the docklands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liverpool is often dubbed the &#8216;Hollywood of the North,&#8217; and for good reason.
