If you have any information regarding this production, the locations or, even better, some comparison shots please contact us. Images submitted must be in Landscape orientation, as would be seen on the cinema screen, not Portrait.
We are aware that there are films on the site that were added when the criteria for the inclusion of locations was very different from today and, as a result, there may be scenes missing from some productions. Please do not forward additional screen captures to us but bring the detail to our attention, for we do, and are, 're-addressing' these older entries as time allows.
- Capture 1
- 20 Jul 2015
Approching Amoudi Harbour, Santorini.
Not quite the correct angle but at least it's from the sea. SJ
- Capture 2
- 'Now' required
Another shot at the beginning showing Paraga Beach, Mykonos. (SR)
- Capture 3
- 'Now' required
Stelios Diamantis locates this as in front of the present day's "Semeli Bar" at Myconos' "Little Venice" while in the distance, Triantafillos points out three of the sixteen windmills at Mykonos.
- Capture 4
- 20 Jul 2015
Hotel Atlantis in Fira, Santorini. As seen from the roof of the Mati Art Gallery, adds Stelios.
Off-angle, but it shows the domination of the hotel. SJ
- Capture 5
- 20 Jul 2015
Gallagher and Hannah make their way to their summer vacation base.
Difficult to replicate without intrusion but these are the steps in Oia above Amoudi Harbour. SJ
- Capture 6
- 20 Jul 2015
Gallagher surveys the view.
Taken from above. The railings have gone. SJ
- Capture 7
- 20 Jul 2015
Gallagher has acquired a pair of binoculars from somewhere.
The "Summer Lovers" house now. Apparently it was a gift shop with the same name for a while but now it seems to be a private house. SJ
- Capture 8
- 25 Oct 2021
Gallagher and Hannah enjoy the ruins at Delos so it's a completely different island.
Close, perhaps should be taken more to the left but a good effort from Andrew Downey (SJ)
- Capture 9
- 'Now' required
They climb to the Temple of Isis, Delos near the island of Mykonos.
- Capture 10
- 25 Oct 2021
The Avenue of the Lions: plaster-cast replicas with the originals undercover in the site museum, and one guards the Arsenale in Venice.
Wrong angle but lovely matching sky and, since this is the only submission we've had for six years, our thanks to Andrew again. (SJ)
- Capture 11
- 15 Jun 2019
Lots of scanty sunbathing in possibly Crete. Not Crete, see the now.
It's Elia Beach, Mykonos identified by Marco Caneira who visited there and sends in a proving Google shot. (SJ)
- Capture 12
- 21 Jun 2019
Definitely Matala Beach, Crete
This is Marco's own handiwork from Matala Beach. He has caught other angles and scenes which are added (out of chronological sequence) to the captures 40 onwards (Sj)
- Capture 13
- 'Now' required
Quite an impressive height.
- Capture 14
- 20 Jul 2015
Gallagher spots his fanciable neighbour Quennessen across the way, while Hannah wonders what he's up to
Best I could do without trespass. This is looking south to Castle Oia, with the steps to Amoudi Harbour to the right. SJ
- Capture 15
- 'Now' required
Quennessen and Gallagher still at those binoculars.
- Capture 16
- 20 Jul 2015
Fira/Thira the capital of Santorini.
Again, annoyingly the wrong angle but it shows the Atlantis Hotel seen in the "then."
- Capture 17
- 'Now' required
Gallagher by a sign saying Nicola restaurant volcano. Unsure.
- Capture 18
- 20 Jul 2015
Gallagher, resplendent in early 80s dress code, and Hannah relax back at their pad in Oia
A zoomed in shot. SJ
- Capture 19
- 'Now' required
Hannah photographs the locals, polite enough to ask permission first.
- Capture 20
- 'Now' required
Gallagher and Quennessen back at the beach alongside the beautiful young things.
- Capture 21
- 'Now' required
Hannah by a windmill. Could be Myknonos or Santorini.
- Capture 22
- 'Now' required
If this is next to the windmill and the continuity suggest so, then it could be Santorini.
- Capture 23
- 'Now' required
Next to a church.
- Capture 24
- 'Now' required
Hannah goes exploring just off the south side of Oia.
- Capture 25
- 'Now' required
Probably the same alleyway. May require specialist local knowledge.
- Capture 26
- 'Now' required
At Oia, overlooking Therasia above Amoudi Harbour. Now part of Oia Castle hotel.
- Capture 27
- 20 Jul 2015
The threesome tour the sites of Santorini.
No, I'm in the wrong place, need to be further round to the south but this is a start. Taken from south of Fira, so head south. SJ
- Capture 28
- 'Now' required
Gallagher and Hannah in Oia.
- Capture 29
- 'Now' required
More touring, could be Santorini but then again maybe not. I doubt they'd ship the jeep (seen in 027) to another island.
- Capture 30
- 'Now' required
Hmm, some high jumps and sky-clad sunbathing.
- Capture 31
- 20 Jul 2015
Oia Village, says the sign helpfully.
Yes, quite a few changes here at the southernmost point of Oia and the north of Finikia where buses still stop. But the church, seen in Sniper: Legacy, is seen on the hill. SJ
- Capture 32
- 'Now' required
Hannah and Quennessen in Oia.
- Capture 33
- 20 Jul 2015
Back at the ex-Summer Lovers gift shop.
Now. SJ
- Capture 34
- 'Now' required
Hannah's parents arrive at Fira Harbour. Cable car, mule or shank's pony are the only ways up,
- Capture 35
- 'Now' required
Beach at eventide.
- Capture 36
- 20 Jul 2015
Gallagher surveys his holiday pad.
A xanthic addition by the steps but otherwise pretty much unchanged. SJ
- Capture 37
- 20 Jul 2015
Quennessen dashes down the steps to Summer Lovers
Hard to replicate but here are the bells. SJ
- Capture 38
- 'Now' required
At the airport.
- Capture 39
- 'Now' required
All three enjoy the tombstoning. Same as 013.
- Capture 40
- 21 Jun 2019
Additional captures and nows up to 47 all supplied by Marco Caneira (MC)
Matala Beach as seen also in capture 12.
- Capture 41
- 21 Jun 2019
A closer shot of Gallagher and Hannah.
Matala Beach again. MC
- Capture 42
- 21 Jun 2019
An interior.
Marco was there. I think this is Atlantis Hotel in Firá, Santorini.
- Capture 43
- 21 Jun 2019
A night scene in Firá. The hotel is also seen in capture 16.
MC captures the same time of night.
- Capture 44
- 21 Jun 2019
An interior.
Atlantis. MC
- Capture 45
- 21 Jun 2019
A repeat of capture 16
Marco's angle is spot on but the timing is off so we've shown both this and 16. (SJ)
- Capture 46
- 21 Jun 2019
An exterior leading into an interior (a night club)
MC found it to be the Enigma Club, 25is Martiou 103, Thira/Firá, Santorini.
- Capture 47
- 21 Jun 2019
That's a nice bit of sun on the sea.
Super snap from MC.
