How many times have you seen a movie or TV show and said "I'd love to go there!" or "Hey, cool, I was there!"? Movies can both inspire travel dreams and bring back memories. What are your favorites - old and new?

Visit King´s Landing from "Game of Thrones" in Cáceres, Spain

David Paul AppellOut west in the Extremadura region, the historic centre of the city of the capital of the eponymous province (pop. 96,000), is a UNESCO World Heritage Site thanks especially to one of the world's most extensive surviving collections of medieval architecture, including spectacular buildings such as the Palacio de las Veletas and the Co-Cathedral of Santa María. Roaming the atmospheric warren of streets and lanes of the old quarter of Cáceres gives as real a time-machine feel as…

Fort Worth's Coyote Drive-In in 'Nostalgia Front & Center in Some U.S. Museums & Eateries'

Louis Kaplan is channeling his childhood.  While a youngster, he collected baseball cards which he stored in boxes and treasured as souvenirs of the USA's favorite pastime.  Decades later, he’s reliving that time while visiting the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, upstate New York.  Opportunities to recapture memories from the past are of course not limited to baseball, nor to New York. From Coca-Cola to cars, movies to museums, chapters of times gone by await…

4 Movies to Watch Before Visiting South Korea

Hi All! I am a great fan of South Korean culture, people, movies and TV series. That's why I am planning a trip to visit this beautiful country in September with my family and few friends. Because I have only a few weeks to spend there, that's why I want to explore its finest places. I found few movies worth watching before the journey to South Korea, but it would be beneficial if you also share your suggestions and experiences. Seoul Searching: It is the best movie to watch if you want to…

    You won't see much of Peru in the multiple-award-winning Undertow... but on a human level, it's one of the best fílms I've seen in a long time. And, of course, I had to post about it.

     

    Thanks re: The Tourist, Mr. Scribe!

    Jose, I had trouble finding this at first, because I thought the link below was for the movie's website. But I soon found it on this website's home page. Yours is the first review I've read that makes a credible case for The Tourist without minimizing the vapidity of Jolie, not to mention the script. Well done.

    Seen "The Tourist" yet? Check out my take on Venice, Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp in the film Roger Ebert called "absurd."

    "Cairo Time" is a good indie with three main characters: a woman, a man, and the city of Cairo. Saw it in L.A. at the Laguna Niguel Theatre, and now, at 7:20 A.M. Pacific Time, I'm drinking black coffee and looking at the photos on Tripatini's Cairo blog ( http://www.tripatini.com/profiles/blogs/cairo-egypt ), which makes think about the movie.

    "The American" is the latest Hollywood movie set in Italy. Just saw it last night with a couple of friends, and I loved the picturesque scenery and cinematography in the Abruzzo (misty panoramas, as well as the twisty lanes and passageways of the mountain town of Castel del Monte which came across incredibly atmospheric, especially at night). Too bad the story itself is formulaic and turgid -- the pacing so glacial as to put me half to sleep. A paid assassin who develops a conscience, a hooker with a heart of gold (and suspiciously excellent English for a small-town prostie) -- I mean, please. It reminded me how much better I likes another flick I saw a couple of years ago -- also about killers for hire and with an atmospheric Euro local, "In Bruges." And what's with that craggy, nosy old priest? I remember thinking when he first showed up and started badgering the George Clooney character -- "Jeez, isn't this dude a little long in the tooth for him?" (Oh, c'mon, don't roll yer eyes -- I've known Italian priests personally!)
