A Tourism Review article wrote about the most favourable European filming locations, featuring London, Paris, Prague, Rome and... Budapest. In their recommendation, they not only mention the preferences of filmmakers but there's special mention of film-crazy tourists as well.
In the article Tourism Review lists cities that appear more and more in super-productions, and whose streets can turn into a completely different part of the world for a few weeks during filming. This rather usual sight occurs somewhat frequently in
Budapest: Andrássy Avenue is frequently included in various films, sometimes as Moscow, and sometimes as Argentina. We are not surprised when we bump into horse-drawn carriages on our way to the grocery store, or if we see exploding cars as we look out of our office window. Over the past few years Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt and Robert Pattinson all participated in films in Budapest, not to mention all the music video clips that feature our capital as the background. Check out our roundup of 10 famous movies filmed in Budapest.The website would like to draw attention to the city from a cinematic point of view as well, since many tourists - even if they only caught a glimpse of the Parliament or the Chain Bridge on the silver screen - would gladly like to visit our city. The article specifically mentions the film
An American Rhapsody, and writes that Budapest's streets are among the greatest filming locations in the world.
