So, I really wanted to find out where they filmed that movie, “Silent Night.” You know, the one with Joel Kinnaman? It’s got this whole Christmas vibe going on, and I was curious about the real-life setting.
Digging Around for Clues
First, I started with a basic Google search. Typed in “Silent Night movie location” and browsed through the first few results. Nothing concrete popped up right away. Scrolled down a bit more, clicked on a couple of movie database sites. They usually have some info on filming locations, but this time, it was kinda vague. Mostly just said “Mexico,” which, yeah, it’s a big country.
Narrowing it Down
Then I remembered seeing some behind-the-scenes stuff on social media. Went to the movie’s official Instagram page and started digging through their posts. Found a few pictures of the cast and crew on set. The backgrounds were kinda generic, but noticed a few shots with some distinctive buildings. Maybe I could use those as landmarks.
Street View to the Rescue
Opened up Google Maps and switched to Street View. Started virtually “walking” around some areas in Mexico that looked similar to what I saw in those photos. It was like a digital treasure hunt! Spent a good hour just exploring different streets, looking for anything that matched the movie scenes.
Bingo!
Finally, I stumbled upon a street that looked incredibly familiar. There it was, the same colorful building from that one scene! I compared it with a screenshot from the movie, and it was a perfect match. I found it! It turns out they filmed a lot of the movie in Mexico City. Specifically, around the historic center. Pretty cool, right?
