Where is Hugh Grant's famous door from
Notting Hill? How do you find the secret entrance to the Ministry of Magic from Harry Potter, or James Bond's office? Comprehensive, entertaining and exhaustively researched, Movie London contains detailed coverage of over 500 films, illustrated with hundreds of location photographs.

Packed with all the information the movie-buff traveller needs to know, this unique guide also includes maps for movie-themed walks and full color features on: * Hitchcock's London * Bond Streets * The Scary City * Swinging Sixties London * Romantic Comedies * London Gangsters * Literary London

From the trendy Notting Hill to the gritty Bourne Ultimatum, from the stately Sense & Sensibility to the starkly futuristic Children of Men, the films made in London are as diverse as the capital's vibrant cultures - and Movie London covers them all.
