It is the cloth hall in Bruges, so I will guess "In Bruges".

[tedious aside] Both my grandfathers passed through Bruges in the period after the Kaiser's War and our house growing up had a small brass model of the cloth hall and several watercolours of Bruges and the surrounding area. [/tedious aside]

Since Partition is topical just now, let's have one from Pakistan. Which film used Lahore Station for a number of scenes.

What happened to that response that was up in here this morning?
I was waiting to see if it was correct (I assumed it was).

I haven't been on the board since I posted the clue so didn't see it. Post it again and I'll let you know.

Edit: Ah, on re-reading I'm now assuming it was someone else's guess.

No, very Hollywood with two big stars of the day. One born in London and died in California, the other born in South Carolina and died in London.

I think The Men Who Stare At Goats filmed there. This may, of course, be a) nonsense or b) not the film you have in mind.

First off, when I said 'newer' it was in reference to the last film discussed ('56).

It's touched on in a manner.

Not snow. Not Men who stare at goats or Independance Day.
