A
giant, and largely computer generated, snake picks off
members of a jungle expedition in this tongue-in-cheek
thriller.
Although much of the movie was shot in the jungle around
Manaus in Brazil,
you donít have to travel quite so far to enjoy the Anaconda
experience. Watch how the lush foliage gives way to,
er, palm trees toward the filmís climax.
The later action sequences were filmed in California,
in the Los
Angeles State and County Arboretum, a 127-acre
botanical garden which must be one of the most filmed
locations in the world.
Its tropical foliage has been seen in Tarzan
movies, Road movies, TVís Fantasy Island
(the kitschy little Queen Anne cottage is here), classics
such as George
Cukor's The Women and William
Wyler's The Best Years of Our Lives, a couple
of Hitchcock
movies (Notorious and Under Capricorn),
and literally hundreds of others. Visit the Arboretum
at 301 North Baldwin Avenue,
Arcadia, east of Pasadena.
