  • 'Now' required

Probably Copenhagen in the window reflection. Dyrholm relaxing at home with her soon-to-be ex.

The Sorrentine peninsula, Campania, Italy

This is taken above Sorrento just to the west of the Grand Hotel President where I suspect the crew, or at least the second unit, were staying and grabbed the shot from a balcony. SJ

  • 'Now' required

Round the corner on the Amalfi Drive, or possibly still Sorrento.

A series of establishing shots lauding the beauty of the region. Are these local residents?

This is taken at dusk from the northwest promontory off Corso Marion Crawford, looking towards the main harbour of Sorrento. SJ

Another establishing shot.

Taken from the Via Capo overlooking Sorrento's Marina Grande which is actually smaller than the Marina Piccola which hosts the ferry boats to Capri and Naples. SJ

The bride and groom to be arrive to prepare for their wedding.

The eastern end of Via del Mare on the Marina Grande. SJ

Overlooking the Marina di Cassano, further east at Piano di Sorrento.

Replacing my poor effort on 15/12/13 with a better angle. This is taken from the Villa "Il Pizzo" area, Sant' Agnello. SJ

  • 'Now' required

Brosnan in his Copenhagen office.

  • 'Now' required

The exterior from the road of 001, Copenhagen. Possibly the Herlev area, suggested by imdb. And indeed that may be Herlev Hospital in the background, Denmark's tallest skyscraper ... Køllegårdsvej 28, 2730 Herlev, Denmark. Thank you to Jaime Mecado for confirming.

Back to the Sorrentine peninsula in a similar shot to 005 but tilting right.

View from Via Capo. SJ

Where all stay in preparation for the wedding. Could be Sant'Agnello, Salerno as imdb suggests. Do they mean Sant'Agnello at Fasanella? The narrative suggests that the gardens overlook the harbour at Piano/Sant'Agnello, Sorrento.

Burgeoning vegetation does little to satisfy but the answer, dear reader, lies below. SJ

On the Amalfi Drive, near the westernmost point. Via Nastro Azzurro.

There are several similar bends on the drive but this one outlines the two promontories best. SJ

Now back, on the sea off Sorrento. Brosnan and Dyrholm take the Amalfi Drive (above) heading the wrong way from their destination but are now back on track.

Same coastline taken from the Marina Piccola in Sorrento. SJ

A close-up shot of 011. Brosnan and Dyrholm on their respective bedroom balconies.

And as promised in 011, we have a match, even though the shutters are closed - the villa "Il Pizzo" Sant'Agnello, Sorrento. A shot further back is impossible without a crane. SJ

Brosnan and Dyrholm in the garden close to the villa seen above. Actually above Piano.

Replacing my misguided shot from 15/12/13, here's one with a nice yellow bench or two. SJ

Marina di Cassano as seen above.

At a different time of day. SJ

Now in central Sorrento.

This campanile is on the Via Corso looking from via San Cesarea.

Dyrholm and daughter walk down as camera tilts down.

As do I. SJ

Panning left...

... to reveal the Societa Operaia, a working men's club. SJ

Nice detail in the wall.

via San Cesarea looking west. SJ

Dyrholm pauses by the entrance to Societa Operaia

Now. SJ

There's Brosnan inside in solitary imbibation.

Busier now. SJ

Dyrholm joins Brosnan

Busy if not full. SJ

Another shot continuing pan and tilt in previous shots.

Again from the via Capo. SJ

A close up from the Marina Grande looking west.

So the via Capo is directly above and behind. SJ

Brosnan and Dyrholm on the Marina Grande beach.

Taken just by il Delfino ristorante. SJ

A shot without actors.

Now. SJ

One of the many grottoes in the area.

Impossible to confirm without a boat, but this is my best guess. The north end of Marina di Cassano, not too far from the Villa Il Pizzo. SJ

The wedding ceremony.

Chiostro di San Francesco, Sorrento, just off the Via San Francesco. SJ

As above.

These are 13th century cloisters. SJ

  • 'Now' required

Some industrial landmarks in Denmark.

  • 'Now' required

A panorama of Copenhagen.

Things seem to be going well for Dyrholm and Brosnan.

Mount Vesuvius in the background dominates the bay of Naples. SJ
