NYC in Film

Finding movie locations in the Big Apple.

Death Wish (1974)

I’m still working on a couple locations for this film, but I have modern pictures for most of the already-identified places.

I created a video montage of Death Wish, showcasing all the found locations, as well as the missing ones. Any help is welcome, including trying to figure out where they shot the subway interiors. I think some stuff was shot at Hoyt-Schermerhorn, but other stuff does not look like that station. Maybe they used the Court Street station, which i think was closed by 1974 but hadn’t been converted into a museum yet.       However, as I’ve grumbled in previous posts, the most difficult, practically impossible places to take pictures of are office lobbies. The security is customarily very tight, and the guards always seem poised to thwart any “unauthorized photography” immediately, as if they took a special training course just for this particular situation. And no British accent will soften their attitude.
