On http://www.l2tc.com/ (a website apparently designed to find film locations which I stumbled on), choose "recherche par film" on left-hand side, then type in the name in "mots du titre".

Results found:

  • in a private hotel of the Rue du Rempart (the prison scenes I think) in the village of Semur en Auxois (in the Department of Côte d'or, in Burgandy)
  • in the village of Braux (also in Côte d'or)
  • at the Canal de Bourgogne/Burgandy (fishing scene?)
  • at the Marigny le Cahouet castle.

ps: it was one of my favourite movies when I was a teenager, but I haven't seen it again since then

Aha, I just found out that if you click on the village name on that website I indicated, you get to see other movies that had scenes filmed in that same village.

Very cool!

Great site, thanks! (Goes looking 'em up with ViaMichelin and Google images)

Ah, it's all in an around Semur (picture below)! The  Château de Marigny-le-Cahouët was the girl's house, next to the bridge of the D119k in Braux was the fishing scene. I could have visited Semur-en-Auxois when I was in Dijon (along with nearby Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, where "Chocolat" was filmed).

ps: it was one of my favourite movies when I was a teenager, but I haven't seen it again since I was a teenager :-)

I have just seen it for the first time since then :-)

Nice picture! Is this a misplaced Bridge Blogging comment?

Hah! Could be... I found you a link for the bridge at Structurae. It's apparently called Pont Joly (what a name!), is 17m high above the Armançon river, and is from 1779.
