Best Things to Do in Burbank California – A Tour of Burbank Filming Locations

• In the City / Los Angeles / USA

Having lived in LA for a year, we only scratched the surface of everything to explore in town. Because we lived in NoHo, we regularly spent time in Burbank for Porto’s Bakery and movie theater, but we didn’t realize all the things we were passing by on the way.

Besides being home to giant studios like Warner Bros. Studios & The Walt Disney Company, there are plenty of film locations that you can visit on your own. You can walk the streets, dine at, or play at some of the same places your favorite movies and TV shows were filmed. There were even a few places we had been to and never realized that they were filming locations. We loved getting a look behind the filmmaking process and had some fun recreating some of the shots from the movies too!

To help you get started, we’ve put together a guide so that you can do a self-guided tour of the area.

ET was filmed up in the foothills of Burbank and Pulp Fiction and several other movies were filmed at Bobs Big Boy on Riverside Drive, also check out the Grifith Observatory. Rebel With Out a Cause (James Dean & Natily Wood), Charlie’s Angels ( Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz, Demi Moore) and countless others have been shot there

Thanks! Will definitely have to check it out next time we go.

I loved the Warner Brothers Tour. I think it was the best “touristy” money we spent in LA and every time I recognize it on TV in some capacity I get excited.

OOOOOOH I love this list!!! (I really love that Back to the Future shot you were able to recreate!)

Thanks, Starr!! :) Jacob had a lot of fun with that one haha

I love this idea – it’s always a blast seeing places you know from movies. When my sister lived in LA, they’d shoot segments outside her apartment all the time, and we’d have fun trying to guess what they were filming.

What did they shoot outside their apartment? We didn’t see anything shoot outside of ours, but we always found it funny when they referenced our streets in 24 where all the crimes where happening. haha it wasn’t thaaaat ghetto. :P

Onyx Storm Is Almost Guaranteed To Continue 1 Annoying Dynamic From Iron Flame

What happened to robert shinn from netflix's dancing for the devil, the acolyte’s opening repeats obi-wan’s oldest lie.

• The Morning Show is primarily filmed in Los Angeles, even though it is set in New York City.
• Filming locations in Los Angeles, such as 611 Place, double as New York City settings on the show.
• Some scenes and exterior shots are filmed on location in New York City to capture the essence of the setting.

As its title suggests, The Morning Show revolves around a popular network broadcast morning news program in New York City called The Morning Show ( TMS ), but the majority of the television show is not filmed in the Big Apple. The first season of the Apple TV+ drama kicks off with the firing of one of the co-anchors following allegations of sexual misconduct at the height of the #MeToo movement, and the other co-anchor has to grapple with the news (no pun intended) and adjust to working with a new onscreen partner. The following two seasons have continued weaving in a handful of real-world topics, like the COVID-19 pandemic, politics, #MeToo, and more.

The ensemble cast of The Morning Show contains Jennifer Aniston as Alex Levy, Reese Witherspoon as Bradley Jackson, Billy Crudup as Cory Ellison, Mark Duplass as Chip Black, Néstor Carbonell as Yanko Flores, Karen Pittman as Mia Jordan, Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Hannah Shoenfeld, Desean Terry as Daniel Henderson, Jack Davenport as Jason Craig, Steve Carell as Mitch Kessler, Greta Lee as Stella Bak, Julianna Margulies as Laura Peterson, Nicole Beharie as Christine Hunter, and Jon Hamm as Paul Marks. The talented cast, who have been nominated for and won many awards for their roles, and crew have mostly limited themselves to two cities while filming the Apple TV+ series.

Safari Inn, Burbank, California

The Morning Show technically takes place in New York City since that is where the studio for the fictional news program, TMS , is located. However, the characters in the Apple TV+ television series sometimes travel outside the city and around the world for work. For example, one scene in season 1 was filmed at the Safari Inn in Burbank, California, just east of Los Angeles, and that is truly where the episode takes place within the world of the show.

According to The Cinemaholic , the hotel that Jennifer Aniston's Alex stays at while reporting on the Los Angeles fires in The Morning Show season 1 was the Safari Inn, where they filmed the scene. The hotel in Burbank is a popular destination for television series and movie productions. Films like True Romance and Apollo 13 and shows other than the Apple TV+ drama like CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and Barnaby Jones have shot at the Safari Inn over the years. The hotel has distinguishable features, so it is easy to spot onscreen. Related: The Morning Show Season 3 Finally Fixes Major Criticism After 4 Years

The 611 Place, Los Angeles, California

Most scenes in all three seasons of The Morning Show were captured in Los Angeles, California — even the sequences that supposedly take place in New York City. One significant Los Angeles location, 611 Place in the downtown area, doubles as the home to the UBA network in the drama television series. The building, which is located at 611 West 6th Street, is 42 stories and 620 feet tall, making it the perfect substitute for a skyscraper in the City That Never Sleeps.

Other productions that have been filmed at 611 Place are Mr. Mom , Uncommon Valor , Con Air , The Day After Tomorrow , and Along Came Polly . Within the context of The Morning Show , 611 Place is a skyscraper in New York City. But in the real world, it is a tall building situated in Downtown Los Angeles. However, fans just know it as the UBA headquarters.

Sony Pictures Studios, Culver City, California

Every scene that the cast and crew of The Morning Show could not capture on location in or around Los Angeles and New York City was filmed at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California, west of Downtown Los Angeles. Multiple sets were built for the Apple TV+ drama series at the television and film production studio, and most interior scenes throughout all three seasons of the show were shot at the complex. For example, the offices in the UBA network building and a handful of the characters' apartments and homes were built by the crew and filmed at Sony Pictures Studios.

Sony Pictures Studios is a historic and iconic television and film production studio in Los Angeles County, California. It opened in 1912 as Inceville Studios and was eventually the home to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Lorimar-Telepictures before Sony acquired the complex in the 1990s. Aside from The Morning Show , thousands of series and movies have been filmed at the Culver City location, like Wheel of Fortune , Jeopardy! , The King of Queen s , One Day at a Time , Party of Five , Insecure , Shark Tank , The Wizard of Oz , Gone with the Wind , The Amazing Spider-Man , Interstellar , The Dark Knight Rises , Men in Black , Just Go with It , and many more.

Los Angeles, California

The central filming location in all three seasons of The Morning Show was Los Angeles, California, even though the Apple TV+ drama show occurs in New York City. Productions using different cities than the settings in their television series or movies is not out of the norm, though. So, it is not surprising to learn that most scenes in The Morning Show are captured on the West Coast instead of the East Coast. Unfortunately, not every location in every scene in all three seasons of the show is known, like 611 Place or Safari Inn. However, The Cinemaholic has leaked a couple of Los Angeles spots that doubled as New York City locations for the series.

According to the source, the season 1 scene that features Billy Crudup's Cory Ellison drinking at a bar was shot at the Gallery Bar and Cognac Room at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles. Additionally, the first time Cory met with Reese Witherspoon's Bradley was filmed at the Cicada Restaurant and Lounge in Downtown Los Angeles for season 1.

TheWrap also reported that the entirety of principal photography for The Morning Show season 2 occurred in Los Angeles due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the production team was limited location-wise, they had to get creative when choosing filming spots and building sets. Some scenes were supposed to take place in New Orleans' French Quarter, but since the cast and crew couldn't travel to Louisiana, they transformed a courtyard in Downtown Los Angeles to look like New Orleans. Plus, they utilized a Metrolink station in Anaheim to double as a train station in Wuhan, China and used a Pasadena estate for Steve Carell's Mitch's Italian villa.

Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York

Jon Hamm's Paul Marks is a new character in The Morning Show season 3, and thanks to set photos from an upcoming episode, we know that Paul and Jennifer Aniston's Alex go to Coney Island in Brooklyn, New York, in one episode. The two actors and the Apple TV+ television series' crew actually traveled to the neighborhood to film these scenes since it's a bit difficult to replicate Coney Island anywhere else in the world.

New York City, New York

As mentioned above, most of The Morning Show scenes were filmed in Los Angeles. But some shots needed to be captured in New York City since that is where the series takes place. Plenty of exterior sequences have been shot in the city, and iconic landmarks like Times Square, Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, and the World Trade Center can be spotted in the background of many The Morning Show episodes.

The safari inn from “true romance”.

One oft-filmed-at locale that I had known about for ages, but had never gotten around to stalking was the historic Safari Inn on West Olive Avenue in Burbank. I had driven by the motel countless times over the years – I get my hair done right across the street, in fact – and, even though I knew of the site’s prestigious filming pedigree, for some odd reason, I never thought to stalk it. Then, a couple of weeks ago, my hair stylist happened to be running late, so I decided to pop on over to the decades-old inn to finally do some proper stalking of the place.

The Safari Inn was originally constructed in 1955 and, amazingly enough, still looks almost exactly the same today as it did then.

The site is most famous for its iconic neon sign, which has stood as a beacon on Olive Avenue, beckoning passersby and road-trippers alike, since the day the motel was founded.

Today, the boutique hotel, which was just recently renovated, boasts 55 rooms and suites, most with their own kitchen or kitchenette, a fitness center, laundry facilities, free parking, and complimentary shuttle service to and from the Burbank Airport. Not bad for around $100 a night. And the traveler reviews on TripAdvisor all look to be pretty favorable, to boot.

The Safari Inn also features a large, second-story patio deck . . .

. . . which overlooks a pool.

I absolutely love the pool’s feather-shaped cut-out, which you can see in the bottom left of the photograph below and which matches the feather on the inn’s famous signage. So cute!

The Safari Inn’s most notable onscreen appearance was in 1993’s True Romance , where it masqueraded as the supposed Hollywood-area motel where Clarence Worley (Christian Slater) and Alabama Whitman (Patricia Arquette) stayed while visiting L.A. Some camera trickery and crafty editing was used to make the hotel appear as if it was located on Sunset Boulevard in the movie, though, and not in the heart of suburban Burbank.

The interior of Clarence and Alabama’s room was just a set and not an actual Safari Inn room. You can see what one of the hotel’s real life rooms looks like here . Despite this fact, a girl in one of my former acting classes booked the “ True Romance room” for her True Romance -loving boyfriend’s birthday one year.

Because Clarence and Alabama’s door is never actually shown in the movie, I was not able to figure out what room was used for the exterior shots.

All I was able to ascertain was that it was a second floor room, located in the northwest corner of the property, in the vicinity of the area denoted with a pink arrow in the photograph below.

True Romance is hardly the first production to utilize the Safari Inn, though. Thanks to the L.A. Bizarro website , I learned that way back in 1970 the property masqueraded as the Sunshine Motor Inn where Shirley Renfrew Partridge (Shirley Jones) and her family stopped to take a shower after being sprayed by a skunk in the Season 1 episode of The Partridge Family titled “But the Memory Lingers On.”

In 1995’s Apollo 13 , the Safari Inn stood in for the supposed Florida-area motel where Marilyn Lovell (Kathleen Quinlan) stayed the night before her husband, Jim Lovell (Tom Hanks), embarked on his mission to the moon.

In 2000, the motel was featured on the The Wallflowers’ sampler CD for (Breach).

In the Season 4 episode of Six Feet Under titled “Can I Come Up Now?”, which aired in 2004, the Safari Inn was where George Sibley (James Cromwell) and Ruth Fisher (Frances Conroy) visited George’s estranged son, Kyle, (James Waterston). In the episode, the exterior of the hotel is shown only very briefly.,

Thanks to fellow stalker Dal, I learned that the Safari Inn served as the finishing point for The Law Enforcement Desert Relay in the Season 4 episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation titled “Dead Ringer,” which also aired in 2004.

In the 2005 movie Coach Carter , the Safari Inn was where the Richmond High School basketball team stayed – and snuck out to go party – during the Bayhill Tournament Championship.

The real life interior of two of the Safari’s room were also used in the filming.

The Safari Inn also popped up in the Season 4 episode of Prison Break titled “The Price”, which aired in 2008, as the motel where Dr. Sara Tancredi (Sarah Wayne Callies) had a run in with Gretchen Morgan (Jodi Lyn O’Keefe – whom I did not even recognize in the role!).

One of the hotel’s real life rooms also appeared in the episode.

In 2009, the Safari Inn was where former child star Christine Rapp (Elizabeth Perkins) tried to hide out and wound up killing someone in the Season 8 episode of Monk titled “Mr. Monk’s Favorite Show.”

In the Season 7 episode of Desperate Housewives titled “Pleasant Little Kingdom”, which aired in 2010, the Safari Inn was where Gabrielle Solis (Eva Longoria) said goodbye to her switched-at-birth daughter, Grace Sanchez (Cecilia Balagot).

In 2012, the Safari Inn stood in for Sunset Boulevard’s Crystal Motel, where Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson (Kyra Sedgwick) discovered the body of Gwyneth Adler in the Season 7 episode of The Closer titled “Hostile Witness.” Only the interior of one of the Safari’s rooms appeared in the episode.

According to IMDB , both the Season 3 episode of T.J. Hooker titled “Undercover Affair” and the Season 7 episode of Falcon Crest titled “Legacies” were filmed at the Safari Inn, but I could not find copies of either with which to verify that information.

And while IMDB also states that the Season 1 episode of Southland titled “Mozambique” was filmed at the Safari Inn, that information is incorrect. “Mozambique” was actually filmed at the Saharan Motor Hotel located at 7212 Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood – a site I am going to have to stalk in the near future as it is where Patrick Swayze and his wife, Lisa Nieme, lived upon first moving to Los Angeles.

The Canfield-Moreno Estate from “Scream 3”

One location that I have wanted to stalk for what seems like ages now is the Canfield-Moreno Estate – an absolutely humongous Italianate-style villa that was featured extensively in the 2000 thriller Scream 3 .  I first found out about the locale thanks to Mike, from MovieShotsLA , who had stalked it a few years back and, as fate would have it, had been invited onto the property and INSIDE OF THE MANSION by a caretaker to snap some pictures.  For whatever reason, though, I had just never made it out there.  Then, a few weeks ago, Mike reminded me of the site and suggested that I blog about it during my Haunted Hollywood month.  Because it is not at all visible from the street, he also kindly agreed to provide the photographs for the post.  “All you need is a pic of yourself in front of the gate,” he said, “and I’ll take care of the rest!”  So I dragged the Grim Cheaper right on out there just a few days later.

A production of some sort was actually being filmed when the GC and I showed up to stalk the estate and the main gates were standing wide open.  Unfortunately though, as you can see below, even with the gates open, not much was visible.  So I honestly cannot thank Mike enough!  Without his pictures, this would have made for a very boring blog post.  (I ended up having to pose for a photograph in front of the mansion’s back gate as too many cars were driving in and out of the front one, making it impossible for me to stand by it.)

The 22,000-square-foot Canfield-Moreno Estate, which is also known as The Paramour Mansion and The Crestmont, was originally constructed in 1923.  It was designed in the Mediterranean Revival-style by Robert D. Farquhar, the same architect who also designed the California Club in downtown Los Angeles, Beverly Hills High School in Beverly Hills, and the William Andrews Clark Jr. Mausoleum at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.  The 22-room villa was commissioned by silent film star Antonio Moreno and his wife, oil heiress Daisy Canfield Danziger, after whom the residence is now known.

During the time that Antonio and Daisy lived there, the mansion was the site of regular Sunday night soirees with many of Hollywood’s elite in attendance.

When the couple decided to separate in 1928, they deeded the estate to the Chloe P. Canfield Memorial Home, a finishing school for girls that was founded according to Daisy’s father’s will.  Sadly, a few years later, on February 23rd, 1933, Daisy lost control of her car while on Mulholland Drive and plunged off a 300-foot cliff.  She died instantly.  Since that time, it has been rumored that her ghost haunts the mansion.

In the 1950s, the Chloe P. Canfield Memorial Home Foundation was dissolved and the estate sold to Franciscan nuns, who turned the site into a boarding house for troubled girls.  After the residence was damaged during the Whittier Narrows earthquake in 1987, the nuns vacated the property and put it up for sale.  Sadly, the once-grand mansion was left to deteriorate over the decade that followed.

The Canfield-Moreno estate was finally purchased in 1998 by a developer named Dana Hollister for $2.25 million.  Hollister, who has an affinity for historic sites, set about restoring the mansion to its original grandeur.  She also added a recording studio to the premises and countless musicians have since recorded there, including Gwen Stefani, Papa Roach, Fiona Apple, and Sarah McLachlan.  And while Hollister’s original intention was to turn the four-and-a-half-acre site into a luxury hotel, opposition from neighbors halted that plan and it is currently being used as her primary residence.

The ginormous Canfield-Moreno estate is comprised of a 15,388-square foot, U-shaped main house, which boasts 8 bedrooms and 8 baths, as well as several detached cottages and stables that dot the sprawling hilltop land.

As you can see in the aerial views pictured below, the estate is absolutely gargantuan and more of a compound than a residence.

And, as you can also see below, the place also exhibits some pretty amazing views.

The estate’s interior boasts a Moroccan flair and, though remodeled recently, looks like it came straight out of Old Hollywood.

Thanks to the unique look and gargantuan size of the estate, which is a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument, it has appeared in more than a few productions over the years.

In Scream 3 , the Canfield-Moreno Estate stood in for the home of Stab 3 producer John Milton (Lance Henriksen).  Both the exterior . . .

. . . and the interior appeared in the flick.

In 1998’s Halloween H20: 20 Years Later , the estate stood in for Hillcrest Academy High School, where Keri Tate (Jamie Lee Curtis) worked.  Both the interior   . . .

. . . and the exterior were used in the filming.  The estate’s pool was covered over for the shoot, as you can see below.

A different location – one that I have yet to find – was used for Hillcrest Academy High School’s front gate.

Also in 1998, the interior of the estate appeared in the music video for the R.E.M. song “At My Most Beautiful”.

You can watch that video by clicking below.

In the Season 2 episode of Alias titled “Truth Takes Time”, which aired in 2003, the Canfield-Moreno Estate stood in for the Tuscan villa where Arvin Sloane (Ron Rifkin) hid out with his wife, Emily Sloane (Amy Irving).

The interior of the property was also used in the episode.

Oddly enough, though, at one point during “Truth Takes Time”, the exterior of a different home was shown as an establishing shot of Arvin’s villa.

In the season 3 episode of Monk titled “Mr. Monk and the Panic Room”, which aired in 2004, the Canfield-Moreno estate was the mansion where record producer Ian Blackburn (Stewart Finlay-McLennan) lived and was murdered – presumably by his pet chimpanzee.

The interior of the house also appeared in the episode.

The estate also appeared in Britney Spears’ 2004 “My Prerogative” music video, in which she crashed her Porsche into the residence’s pool.

                   In 2009, the mansion appeared in the Season 4 episode of Brothers & Sisters titled “From France with Love” as a prospective wedding venue for Rebecca Harper (Emily VanCamp) and Justin Walker (Dave Annable).  While Rebecca is scouting the location with her mom, Holly Harper (Patricia Wettig), and Justin’s mom, Nora Walker (Sally Field), she realizes that a pornographic film is being shot on the premises and therefore decides to go with another venue.  LOL

The villa was also used in the music video for Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds’ 2011 song “If I Had a Gun”.

According to Wikipedia , the estate was also used in Rock Star: INXS, Rock Star: Supernova, Scream Queens, From G’s to Gents, Rock of Love: Charm School, Charm School with Ricki Lake, Mad Mad House , and MTV’s The X Effect , but I was, unfortunately, not able to find copies of any of the productions with which to verify that information.

On a side-note –  The photograph of the Canfield-Moreno Estate that is pictured below, which Mike took, was actually chosen to be featured in the 2012 issue of Locations Magazine !!  How incredibly cool is that?

The magazine . . .

. . . and printed photograph are pictured below.  Um, LOVE IT!

A Gentleman in Moscow: Where is the Paramount+ Show Filmed?

Adapted from the eponymous 2016 novel written by Amor Towles, Paramount+’s ‘A Gentleman in Moscow’ is a historical thriller drama series created by Ben Vanstone. Led by Ewan McGregor and Mary Elizabeth Winstead, the narrative acquaints us with Count Alexander Rostov, a Russian aristocrat, who is spared from death but is placed under house arrest for life in a grand hotel called the Metropol instead. After his title and material wealth are taken away from him, he is banished to an attic room of the hotel, from where he witnesses Russian history unfold.

Now that he has lost everything, Rostov must find meaning in the true riches of life — courage, community, and love. A majority of the series unfolds in Russia, specifically in the Metropol Hotel, where Rostov and Nina embark on an adventurous journey, walking through door after door and room after room, keeping the viewers on the edge of their seats when it comes to the storyline but guessing in the case of its actual filming locations.

A Gentleman in Moscow Shooting Sites

‘A Gentleman in Moscow’ is filmed mostly in England, primarily in Greater Manchester, London, Leeds, Liverpool, and West Yorkshire. Some portions are also shot in Moscow, Russia. As per reports, principal photography for the inaugural iterations of the show commenced in late February 2023, but in July 2023, it was interrupted due to the SAG-AFTRA strike. Filming resumed after the strike and finally wrapped up in January 2024.

Greater Manchester, England

The primary production location of ‘A Gentleman in Moscow’ is the ceremonial county of Greater Manchester. The filming unit takes over the Bolton Town Hall on Victoria Square, which doubles as the Kremlin while the hall’s steps and the surrounding area are covered with snow, standing in for 1920s Russia. Some reports suggest that a few portions are also lensed in and around Victoria Hall at 37 Knowsley Street in Bolton, Heaton Park on Sheepfoot Lane in Manchester, and Le Mans Crescent.

Many pivotal sequences for the historical show are also taped in the Space Studios on Vaughan Street in Manchester. Formerly known as The Space Project, the purpose-built production facility consists of six acoustically treated stages, workshops, and production facilities. Other amenities that the studio provides are superfast Wi-Fi, secure parking, air cooling, hair & make-up facilities, and more.

Talking about the series adaptation of his eponymous novel with USA Today, Amor Towles stated , “The team who put this project together were operating at that level, where they were committed to having as much authenticity as possible to the smallest detail on set, with the notion that even when it’s barely seen by the viewer, that it will be taken in, will add to the richness of the visual experience, but will also give the actors a stronger sense that they are in that place at that time.”

Other Locations in England

For shooting purposes, the production team of ‘A Gentleman in Moscow’ also made the most of other sites across England, including London. In June 2023, during the shooting schedule of season 1, the cast and crew set up camp in and around the Liverpool Town Hall on High Street in Liverpool, which doubles as Paris for the show. Furthermore, the Grade II listed Halifax Town Hall in the town of Halifax in West Yorkshire hosts the production of the Ewan McGregor starrer. The municipal building, Leeds Civic Hall, which is situated in Leeds, West Yorkshire, also serves as one of the prominent filming sites.

Moscow, Russia

Since most of the story takes place in Moscow, Russia, it is only natural that to shoot some additional portions of ‘A Gentleman in Moscow,’ the production team utilizes the actual locales of Russia’s capital. In an interview with Radio Times, Ewan McGregor explained the importance of having an intimacy coordinator on the set for shooting intimate scenes in the show. He said , “It’s still necessary, because it’s also about the crew, and it’s odd to be naked in front of people, it’s odd to be intimate in front of the camera. If you were doing a dance scene, you’d have a choreographer. It’s an important part of the work now because it’s somebody that the director and actors meet in the middle.”

A scenery-chewing Russian terrorist (the new Nationalist breed, not the old Commie type) hijacks America’s First Plane with President James Marshall ( Harrison Ford ) on board.

For the early sequences, a second unit captured shots of Red Square in Moscow , but Harrison Ford stayed in Los Angeles to make his Russian speech, at the Ebell Of Los Angeles , 743 South Lucerne Boulevard , off Wilshire Boulevard, midtown. The complex, comprising a women's club and the Wilshire Ebell Theatre, is a frequent film location which you can see in Forrest Gump , The Addams Family , Ghost and many more productions.

Similarly, 'Moscow Airport' is actually Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) .

Plenty of other locations can be found in Ohio , where ‘Ramstein Air Force Base, Germany’ is Rickenbacker International Airport, Columbus . Permission to use airports determined the locations for much of the rest of the film.

The opening scenes use University Circle and Cuyahoga County Courthouse , Cleveland , as ‘Moscow’ government buildings. The ‘Presidential Palace, Kazakhstan’ is Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland , while the vast ‘Russian’ prison, in which General Radek ( Jurgen Prochnow ) is incarcerated, is Mansfield Reformatory , Mansfield (also used for exteriors for The Shawshank Redemption ).

And although its lawn was recreated in a park in Los Angeles , it is the real White House in Washington DC in the long shots.
