Hi Edith

They filmed it in BC (Canada)...and more specifically, Greenwood (<-- smallest city/town in Canada)!

It was mentioned that parts were filmed in Washington and such.

Cheers

Missing from the list is the Armoury of The Royal Westminster Regiment in New Westminster, BC. The guys in the unit recall the filming.

Yes the locations were wonderful. Check out filming locations on the main page of the film's listing. That is a regular part of IMDB profile.

Interesting fact ... the film's only Oscar nomination was for Best Cinematography ... but it lost to American Beauty. This film was a worthy nominee!
