Tools To Identify Your Favorite Movie Location

by

I am a chronic background watcher when it comes to movies. I love trying to figure out the location where it was filmed, to see if they used the real place, or went with a cheaper alternative. Such as the way Hollywood commonly films in Montreal instead of New York or LA to save on production costs. Or the way the Lord of the Rings filmed in beautiful New Zealand.

Sometimes I manage to catch sight of something that gives it away. I have even seen some places in my hometown that showed it was filmed there. But I don't always get it right, and with CGI and advanced set building and camera work, it can be really difficult to tell the difference these days.

If you are like me and find it hard to resist pinning the place behind the movie down, check out these helpful tools.

UK: Has Your Candidate Said Yes To Ending Extreme Poverty?

"The UK general election is an important milestone on the road to ending extreme poverty. But which of your local candidates are really committed to helping make this happen? Let's find out!"
"ONE.org is asking all candidates to sign the Just Say Yes pledge to ensure that most UK aid goes to those who have the least, that women and girls are put at the heart of international development and that all parts of government work together to build a better and safer world."
The ONE.org team has now launched a nifty online tool that will allow you to check if your candidates have signed the pledge or not. 

Want to know more? Pas de problĆØme, it's all explained in the email I've received earlier which I've copied and pasted (with links and all...) below for your perusal.

Enjoy!
